Airworthiness Directives; Liberty Aerospace Incorporated Model XL-2 Airplanes

What this AD requires

We are correcting the address, telephone, and fax information for the reporting requirement in Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2009-08- 05, which applies to certain Liberty Aerospace Incorporated Model XL-2 airplanes. AD 2009-08-05 currently requires repetitively inspecting the exhaust muffler for cracks, replacing the exhaust muffler when cracks are found, and reporting the results of the inspections to the FAA. Since AD 2009-08-05 became effective, the FAA's Atlanta Aircraft Certification Office (ACO) moved, which has caused the office personnel problems in receiving fax and mailed copies of the inspection result reports. This document corrects the mailing address, telephone number, and fax information of the Atlanta ACO.

Repetitive inspection. Re-inspect every 25 hours or 12 months. The next-due date/hours depend on this aircraft’s time in service — a records report computes it from the logbooks.

Serial-conditional — narrows to serials 0007–0007, 0009–?.

Applies to serial number 0007, and serial number 0009 and subsequent.

Whether AD 2009-08-05 actually applies to your aircraft (by serial and installed parts) and whether it’s already complied with comes from that aircraft’s records.

How AD compliance is recorded

A valid compliance record (14 CFR 43.9) states:

Method of compliance — The specific action taken (inspected, replaced, modified) and to what revision.
Date — When the work was done.
Aircraft time — Total time in service / tach at compliance — how recurring next-due is computed.
Signature & certificate — The A&P/IA who returned it to service, with certificate number.
Is AD 2009-08-05 complied with on your aircraft?

Tailplate reads a tail number’s logbooks and matches every applicable AD — including this one — to its compliance evidence, with recurring next-due dates computed.

Applicability is derived from the FAA directive corpus and is advisory, not a legal airworthiness determination. Compliance is established only from an aircraft’s actual records.
