## Abstract

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to Eurocopter France Model AS 332C, L, L1, and L2 helicopters and Model SA 330F, G, and J helicopters. This action requires inspecting the position and bonding of the main rotor blade (blade) leading edge stainless steel protective strips (strips) that were replaced by C.T.I. Dallas. This amendment is prompted by the discovery of a strip that was both mislocated and improperly bonded. The strip had been replaced by C.T.I. Dallas. This condition, if not corrected, could result in failure of the blade and subsequent loss of control of the helicopter.
