Airworthiness Directive 2013-11-06
one-timeAirworthiness Directives; Dassault Aviation Airplanes
What this AD requires
We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Dassault Aviation Model Mystere-Falcon 900 and Falcon 900EX airplanes. This AD was prompted by reports of chafing between the tail strobe power supply and a hydraulic line. This AD requires modifying the tail strobe power supply wire routing. We are issuing this AD to prevent chafing between the tail strobe power supply and a hydraulic line, which could result in hydraulic fluid leakage and possible fire due to arcing, and consequent loss of control of the airplane due to structural failure of the tail.
Which aircraft AD 2013-11-06 applies to
Model Mystere-Falcon 900: S/Ns 142 and subsequent (see serial_ranges). Model Falcon 900EX: all serial numbers except those on which Dassault Aviation Modification M5741 has been embodied in production.
Whether AD 2013-11-06 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:
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.
