Regulatory Text

86-14-10 FOKKER B.V.: Amendment 39-5349. Applies to all Model F27 airplanes, certificated in any category, equipped with a forward cabin bulkhead and door between the passenger cabin and the cargo compartment. Compliance is required within 120 days after the effective date of this AD, unless already accomplished. To preclude blockage of the evacuation path through the forward cabin bulkhead door, accomplish the following:

A. Inspect the door hinges to determine if the hinge design prevents the door from being lifted off the lower portion of the hinges, with the door opened. If so, no further action is required.

B. If the hinge design permits the opened door to be lifted off the lower portion of the hinges, modify the hinge installation:

1. In accordance with Fokker Service Bulletin F27/25-58, dated December 20, 1985, for airplanes with the serial numbers to which the service bulletin applies, provided other hinge installation modifications made since initial delivery do not preclude that modification; or

2. To another FAA-approved Fokker F27 configuration which would prevent the door, when open, from being lifted off the lower portion of the hinges.

C. An alternate means of compliance or adjustment of the compliance time, which provides an acceptable level of safety, may be used when approved by the Manager, Standardization Branch, ANM-113, FAA, Northwest Mountain Region.

D. Special flight permits may be issued in accordance with FAR 21.197 and 21.199 to operate airplanes to a base for the accomplishment of inspections and/or modifications required by this AD.

All persons affected by this directive who have not already received the appropriate service document from the manufacturer may obtain copies upon request to the Manager, Maintenance and Engineering, Fokker B.V., Product Support, P.O. Box 7600, 11172J Schiphol Oost, The Netherlands. This document may be examined at the FAA, Northwest Mountain Region, 17900 Pacific Highway South, Seattle, Washington, or the Seattle Aircraft Certification Office, 9010 East Marginal Way South, Seattle, Washington.

This amendment becomes effective August 7, 1986.
