AD 95-17-07 60 FR 43359

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain Fairchild Aircraft SA226 series airplanes. This action requires removing the main landing gear (MLG) stop bolts from the bracket assembly on the upper scissors for those airplanes with a MLG door stop installation, and servicing the MLG oleos for all affected airplanes. Incidents where two of the affected airplanes made an emergency gear-up landing prompted this action. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent the MLG doors from jamming, which could prevent the gear from extending and could result in an emergency gear-up landing.
