Unsafe Condition

Failure of the main landing gear (MLG) sidestay upper arm assembly due to fatigue cracking could result in collapse of the MLG during landing, leading to loss of control of the airplane.

AI-generated summary from the source AD text. Verify against the official source before acting.

Required Actions

Replace the MLG sidestay upper arm assembly prior to 12,000 landings or within 9 months after January 27, 1993, whichever is later. Subsequent replacements must occur before 12,000 landings on each assembly. Overhauled assemblies without recorded landings must be assumed to have 8,000 landings at installation.

AI-generated summary from the source AD text. Verify against the official source before acting.

Compliance Time

Prior to the accumulation of 12,000 landings on any MLG sidestay upper arm assembly, or within 9 months after the effective date of this AD, whichever occurs later.

AI-generated summary from the source AD text. Verify against the official source before acting.

Affected Aircraft

British Aerospace Model BAe/HS/DH/BH 125 series airplanes excluding Model BAe 125-1000A series; certificated in any category.

92-27-09 BRITISH AEROSPACE: Amendment 39-8443. Docket No. 91-NM-205-AD.

Applicability: Model BAe/HS/DH/BH 125 series airplanes, excluding Model BAe 125-1000A series airplanes; certificated in any category.

Compliance: Required as indicated, unless accomplished previously.

To ensure continued structural integrity of the main landing gear (MLG) sidestay upper arm assembly, accomplish the following:

(a) Prior to the accumulation of 12,000 landings on any MLG sidestay upper arm assembly, or within 9 months after the effective date of this AD, whichever occurs later, replace the assembly with a serviceable assembly, in accordance with British Aerospace Service Bulletin S.B. 32-216, Revision 1, dated March 21, 1988.

NOTE: A "serviceable" MLG sidestay upper arm assembly is defined as one that is in compliance with the requirements of this AD, and one on which an overhaul has been accomplished as specified in the applicable aircraft maintenance schedule.

(b) Following the accomplishment of paragraph (a) of this AD, replace any MLG sidestay upper arm assembly prior to the accumulation of 12,000 landings on that assembly.

(c) For purposes of this AD, overhauled sidestay upper arm assemblies for which the total number of landings is not recorded must be assumed to have accumulated 8,000 landings at the time of installation.

(d) An alternative method of compliance or adjustment of the compliance time that provides an acceptable level of safety may be used if approved by the Manager, Standardization Branch, ANM-113, FAA, Transport Airplane Directorate. Operators shall submit their requests through an appropriate FAA Principal Maintenance Inspector, who may add comments and then send it to the Manager, Standardization Branch.

NOTE: Information concerning the existence of approved alternative methods of compliance with this AD, if any, may be obtained from the Standardization Branch.

(e) Special flight permits may be issued in accordance with FAR 21.197 and 21.199 to operate the airplane to a location where the requirements of this AD can be accomplished.

(f) The replacement shall be done in accordance with British Aerospace Service Bulletin S.B. 32-216, Revision 1, dated March 21, 1988, which includes the following list of effective pages:
