Airworthiness Directive 2023-04-13
one-timeAirworthiness Directives; Dassault Aviation Airplanes
What this AD requires
The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2021-04- 02, which applied to certain Dassault Aviation Model FALCON 2000EX airplanes. AD 2021-04-02 required revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations. This AD was prompted by a determination that new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations are necessary. This AD continues to require the actions in AD 2021-04- 02, and also requires revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is incorporated by reference (IBR). The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Which aircraft AD 2023-04-13 applies to
Applies only to airplanes with an original airworthiness certificate or original export certificate of airworthiness issued on or before January 15, 2022.
Whether AD 2023-04-13 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.
