Airworthiness Directives; Dassault Aviation Airplanes

What this AD requires

We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Dassault Aviation Model MYSTERE-FALCON 50, MYSTERE-FALCON 900, FALCON 900EX, FALCON 2000, and FALCON 2000EX airplanes. This AD was prompted by a report of an in-flight lightning strike to the WHELEN anti- collision light located on the top of the vertical fin tip that caused severe damage and resulted in the loss of some airplane functions. This AD requires modification of the anti-collision light bonding. We are issuing this AD to prevent loss of electrical power and essential airplane functions, and possible reduced control of the airplane.

Applicability is determined by modification/service-bulletin embodiment status per Figure 1 to paragraph (c), except for airplanes modified through the listed exception service bulletins: MYSTERE-FALCON 50 (M1853 embodied through SB F50-241 in production or F50-257 in service, except modified through M2083 or M3094); MYSTERE-FALCON 900 Group 1 (M1682 embodied through SB F900-182, except modified through M5381) and Group 2 (M1682 through F900-182 and M1947 through SB F900-176, except modified through M5386); FALCON 900EX Group 1 (M1682 through SB F900EX-025, except modified through M5381) and Group 2 (M1682 through F900EX-025 and M1947 through SB F900EX-19, except modified through M5103 or M5386); FALCON 2000 (M331 embodied through SB F2000-11..., except modified through M810, M1061, or M2778).

Whether AD 2016-19-13 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 2016-19-13 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.
