92-25-05 BRITISH AEROSPACE: Amendment 39-8420. Docket No. 91-NM-269-AD.
Applicability: All Model ATP series airplanes, certificated in any category.
Compliance: Required as indicated, unless accomplished previously.
To prevent structural failure of certain brake torque plates and accompanying brake failure, accomplish the following:
(a) Within 400 landings after the effective date of this AD, revise the FAA-approved Mandatory Life Limitations (Airframe) Section, Chapter 5, Section 05-10-11, Table 1, page 4, of the British Aerospace ATP Aircraft Maintenance Manual, by deleting the existing life limitations for brake torque plates, part numbers AHA 1777 and AHA 1650, and adding the component life limitations listed in Table 1 below. The Maintenance Manual revision may be accomplished by inserting a copy of this AD into the Mandatory Life Limitations (Airframe) Section of the ATP Aircraft Maintenance Manual. Once this revised page of the Maintenance Manual is available from British Aerospace and is inserted into the Maintenance Manual, the copy of this AD may be removed.
