Airworthiness Directive 2009-23-01
recurringAirworthiness Directives; Hawker Beechcraft Corporation Model 1900, 1900C, and 1900D Airplanes
What this AD requires
We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Hawker Beechcraft Corporation Models 1900, 1900C, and 1900D airplanes. This AD requires a one-time visual inspection and repetitive ultrasonic inspections of the left and right main landing gear (MLG) actuators for leaking and/or cracks with replacement of the actuator if leaking and/ or cracks are found. This AD results from reports of leaking and cracked actuators. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct leaking and cracks in the MLG actuators, which could result in loss of hydraulic fluid. This condition could lead to an inability to extend or lock down the landing gear, which could result in a gear up landing or a gear collapse on landing.
Which aircraft AD 2009-23-01 applies to
Applies only to airplanes equipped with a Hawker Beechcraft main landing gear (MLG) actuator P/N 114-380041-11, 114-380041-13, 114-380041-15, or 114-380041-15OVH (or FAA-approved equivalent P/N, including Frisby Airborne Hydraulic, Inc. P/N 1FA10043-3, which has parts manufacturer approval by identicality to P/N 114-380041-15). Serial ranges are per model: 1900 UA-3; 1900C UB-1 through UB-74 and UC-1 through UC-174, and UD-1 through UD-6; 1900D UE-1 through UE-439.
Whether AD 2009-23-01 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.
