Airworthiness Directive 2021-09-16
one-timeAirworthiness Directives; Bombardier, Inc., Airplanes
What this AD requires
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Bombardier, Inc., Model BD-100-1A10 airplanes. This AD was prompted by a report of a number of low altitude engine surge incidents during takeoff. This AD requires revising the existing airplane flight manual and applicable corresponding operational procedures to provide the flightcrew with procedures to require the engine bleeds to be "ON" during takeoff. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Which aircraft AD 2021-09-16 applies to
Whether AD 2021-09-16 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.
