Unsafe Condition
The FAA is correcting an airworthiness directive (AD) that was published in the Federal Register. The AD applies to certain Eurocopter France (Eurocopter) Model AS350B3 helicopters. The reference to Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 91.173 in the Required Actions section is incorrect. This document corrects that error. In all other respects, the original document remains the same.
Required Actions
Visually check each laminated half bearing for certain conditions before further flight and after each flight without exceeding 3 hours time-in-service between two checks. This check may be performed by a pilot if certain regulatory recordkeeping requirements are met.
