AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVE

The following airworthiness directive (AD) may be applicable to an aircraft which our records indicate is registered in your name. ADs are issued pursuant to Canadian 

Aviation Regulation (CAR) 521 Division X. Pursuant to CAR 605.84 and the further details of CAR Standard 625, Appendix H, the continuing airworthiness of a Canadian registered aircraft is contingent upon compliance with all applicable ADs. Failure to comply with the requirements of an AD may invalidate the flight authorization of the aircraft. Alternative means of compliance shall be applied for in accordance with CAR 605.84 and the above-referenced Standard. 

This AD has been issued by the Continuing Airworthiness Division (AARDG), National Aircraft Certification Branch, Transport Canada, Ottawa, telephone 613 952-4357.

Pursuant to CAR 202.51 the registered owner of a Canadian aircraft shall, within seven days, notify the Minister in writing of any change of his or her name or address. 

To request a change of address, contact the Civil Aviation Communications Centre (AARC) at Place de Ville, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0N8, or 1-800-305-2059, or www.tc.gc.ca/civilaviation/communications/centre/ address.asp

CF-2010-37

Issue Date 

 28 October 2010 

Number: CF- 2010-37 

Subject: Air Data Computer - Erroneous Airspeed and Altitude Indications 

Effective: 12 November 2010 

Applicability: All Bombardier Inc. Models CL-600-2B19, CL-600-2C10, CL-600-2D15 and 

CL-600-2D24 aeroplanes.

Compliance: As indicated unless already accomplished. 

Background: There have been several in-service reports of airspeed mismatch between the 

pilot and co-pilot’s airspeed indicators. It was discovered that during or after 

heavy rain, the pitot-static tubing may become partially or completely blocked by 

water, which fails to enter the drain bottles. Investigation revealed that drain 

bottles used in the primary pitot-static system include check valves, which 

impede the entry of water into the drain bottle. This condition, if not corrected, 

may result in erroneous airspeed and altitude indications. 

This directive mandates replacement of the Water Accumulator Assemblies to 

improve drainage of the pitot-static tubing. 

Corrective 

Actions: 

Within nine months from the effective date of this directive, accomplish the 

following:
