Airworthiness Directives; Cessna Aircraft Company Models 208 and 208B Airplanes

What this AD requires

The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) to supersede AD 2006-06-06, which applies to certain Cessna Aircraft Company (Cessna) Models 208 and 208B airplanes. AD 2006-06-06 currently requires you to incorporate information into the applicable section of the Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) and Pilot's Operating Handbook (POH) and requires you to install placards. Since we issued AD 2006-06-06, Cessna issued new S1 Known Icing Equipment AFM supplements and developed a low airspeed awareness system. Consequently, this AD requires you to incorporate the applicable AFM supplement revision and temporarily retain the requirements of AD 2006-06-06 until the above revisions are incorporated. One of the AFM requirements is the installation of a functional low airspeed awareness system to operate the airplane in known icing conditions. We are issuing this AD to assure that the pilot has enough information and the necessary equipment to prevent loss of control of the airplane while in-flight during icing conditions.

Paragraph (e) requires a model/engine-specific AFM Supplement S1 (Known Icing Equipment) revision depending on installed engine: Model 208 with Pratt & Whitney of Canada PT6A-114A (675 SHP) or equivalent/higher-horsepower engine; Model 208 with PT6A-114 (600 SHP) or equivalent-horsepower engine; Model 208B with PT6A-114A (675 SHP) engine; and Model 208B with PT6A-114 (600 SHP) engine -- in each case equipped with airframe deicing pneumatic boots and not currently prohibited from flight in known or forecast icing.

Whether AD 2007-10-15 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.

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.

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.
