Abstract
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain EMBRAER Model EMB-145 series airplanes, that requires replacement of defective hydraulic tubing in the left and right wings with new hydraulic tubing. This amendment is prompted by issuance of mandatory continuing airworthiness information by a foreign civil airworthiness authority. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent the loss of hydraulic pressure which could result in reduced controllability of the airplane.
