Full official abstract

This amendment supersedes Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2001- 05-03, which applies to certain SOCATA--Groupe AEROSPATIALE (Socata) Model TBM 700 airplanes. AD 2001-05-03 currently requires you to apply Loctite on attaching bolt/screw threads of inboard, central, and outboard carriages; increase tightening torques of associated hardware; and replace central carriage attaching bolts. The French airworthiness authority has determined that certain service information referenced in AD 2001-05-03 be removed and additional inspection of the flap carriage attaching bolts, screws, and barrel nut be included. Therefore, this AD will retain the requirements of the current AD and will add the information communicated by the French airworthiness authority. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent the flap attaching bolts/screws from becoming loose and separating from the airplane, which could cause rough or irregular control. Such rough or irregular control could lead to the loss of control of the airplane.
