Airworthiness Directive 2019-19-12
one-timeAirworthiness Directives; Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation Helicopters
What this AD requires
The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2018-10-07 for Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation (Sikorsky) Model S-76C helicopters. AD 2018-10-07 required inspecting the engine collective position transducer (CPT). This new AD retains the requirements of AD 2018-10-07 and expands the applicability. This AD is prompted by the determination that an additional part-numbered engine CPT is affected by the same unsafe condition. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Which aircraft AD 2019-19-12 applies to
Applies to helicopters with a Turbomeca, S.A., Arriel 2S1 or Arriel 2S2 engine having an engine collective position transducer (CPT) P/N 76900-01821-104 or 76900-01821-105 installed.
Whether AD 2019-19-12 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.
