Abstract
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Raytheon Model DH.125, HS.125, BH.125, and BAe. 125 (U-125 and C-29A) series airplanes; Model Hawker 800, Hawker 800 (U-125A), Hawker 800XP, and Hawker 1000 airplanes, that requires an inspection for cracking or corrosion of the cylinder head lugs of the main landing gear (MLG) actuator and follow-on/corrective actions. This amendment is prompted by reports of attachment lugs cracking at the actuator cylinder head. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent separation of the cylinder head lugs, which could prevent the MLG from extending and result in a partial gear-up landing.
