Cracking found on the elevator inboard-hinge brackets, attributed to fatigue caused by excessive side loads on the bracket from the flexing of the elevator during flight, which could result in structural failure of the elevators and consequent loss of control of the airplane.
AI-generated summary from the source AD text. Verify against the official source before acting.
Required Actions
Inspect the inboard-hinge brackets of the left and right elevators for cracking. If any crack is found, perform an eddy current inspection to confirm the crack and its length. If the crack is 0.30 inch or more, replace the bracket(s) before the next flight. If the crack is less than 0.30 inch, continued flight for repositioning of the airplane and replacement of the bracket is allowed within the restricted flight envelope for a maximum of 10 flight hours.
