Airworthiness Directive 98-24249
one-timeirworthiness Directives; Fokker Model F28 Mark 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000 Series Airplanes
What this AD requires
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Fokker Model F28 Mark 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000 series airplanes, that requires replacement of certain hinges on the forward, center, and aft cargo doors with improved hinges. This amendment is prompted by issuance of mandatory continuing airworthiness information by a foreign civil airworthiness authority. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent failure of the cargo door hinges caused by stress corrosion or fatigue cracks, which could result in decompression of the airplane, and possible in-flight separation of the cargo door.
Which aircraft AD 98-24249 applies to
Whether AD 98-24249 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.
