Airworthiness Directive 2022-12-13
one-timeAirworthiness Directives; Bombardier, Inc., Airplanes
What this AD requires
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Bombardier, Inc., Model CL-600-1A11 (600), CL-600-2A12 (601), and CL-600-2B16 (601-3A and 601-3R Variants) airplanes. This AD was prompted by reports that during certain operating modes, the flight guidance/autopilot does not account for engine failure while capturing an altitude. This AD requires revising the existing airplane flight manual (AFM) to provide the flightcrew with a new limitation and procedure for operation during certain flight modes. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Which aircraft AD 2022-12-13 applies to
Model CL-600-1A11 (600) covers S/N 1001-1085; Model CL-600-2A12 (601) covers S/N 3001-3066; Model CL-600-2B16 (601-3A and 601-3R variants) covers S/N 5001-5194.
Whether AD 2022-12-13 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:
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.
