Is AD 99-5041 a recurring Airworthiness Directive?

Yes — AD 99-5041 requires a repetitive inspection. Next-due depends on the aircraft's time in service.

Which aircraft does AD 99-5041 apply to?

AD 99-5041 applies to British Aerospace — models 400. Serial/part conditions may narrow it to specific aircraft.

Airworthiness Directives; British Aerospace Model BAC 1-11 200 and 400 Series Airplanes

What this AD requires

This amendment supersedes an existing airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to all British Aerospace Model BAC 1-11 200 and 400 series airplanes, that currently requires repetitive visual inspections to detect cracks in the flight deck canopy area, and repair, if necessary; and repetitive detailed visual and eddy current inspections to detect cracks of the top sill members at station 82.5, and replacement of cracked parts with new parts, or repair of the top sill members. This amendment continues to require detailed visual and eddy current inspections to detect cracks of the top sill members at station 82.5. This amendment also adds a requirement for a one-time inspection to determine the type of fasteners installed in certain holes of the joint strap installation, and replacement of rivets with bolts, if necessary. This amendment is prompted by the issuance of mandatory continuing airworthiness information by a foreign civil airworthiness authority. The actions specified by this AD are intended to detect and correct cracking in the flight deck canopy area, which could result in reduced structural integrity of the flight deck frame and adjacent fuselage structure.

Repetitive inspection. Re-inspect. The next-due date/hours depend on this aircraft’s time in service — a records report computes it from the logbooks.

Whether AD 99-5041 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:

Method of compliance — The specific action taken (inspected, replaced, modified) and to what revision.

Date — When the work was done.

Aircraft time — Total time in service / tach at compliance — how recurring next-due is computed.

Signature & certificate — The A&P/IA who returned it to service, with certificate number.

Applicability is derived from the FAA directive corpus and is advisory, not a legal airworthiness determination. Compliance is established only from an aircraft’s actual records.
