Airworthiness Directive 2017-11-09
one-timeAirworthiness Directives; Learjet, Inc., Airplanes
What this AD requires
We are superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2017-08-07 for certain Learjet, Inc., Model 60 airplanes. AD 2017-08-07 required a one-time inspection of the fuselage skin for corrosion, and related investigative and corrective actions if necessary. This new AD retains the actions of AD 2017-08-07 and removes certain airplanes from the applicability. This AD was prompted by a determination that only certain airplanes are affected by the unsafe condition. We are issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Which aircraft AD 2017-11-09 applies to
Applies only to airplanes with a dorsal-mounted oxygen bottle installed, or that have had the dorsal-mounted oxygen bottle removed but retained the oxygen line fairing installed on top of the fuselage.
Whether AD 2017-11-09 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.
