Full official abstract

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain SOCATA Groupe AEROSPATIALE (Socata) TBM 700 airplanes. This action requires installing pneumatic deicers on the elevator horn leading edges. Ice accumulation on one of the affected airplanes during flight testing in icing conditions prompted the required action. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent ice accumulation on the elevator horn, which could lead to loss of control of the airplane.
