The following Brazilian Emergency Airworthiness Directive (EAD), issued by the Agência Nacional de 

Aviação Civil (ANAC) in accordance with provisions of Chapter IV, Title III of Código Brasileiro de 

Aeronáutica - Law No. 7,565 dated 19 December 1986 - and Regulamento Brasileiro de Homologação Aeronáutica 

(RBHA) 39, applies to all aircraft registered in the Registro Aeronáutico Brasileiro. No person may operate

herein. 

AD No. 2009-11-01 - EMBRAER - Amendment 39-1290.

APPLICABILITY: 

This Airworthiness Directive applies to EMBRAER ERJ 170 model ERJ 170-100 LR, 

ERJ 170-100 STD, ERJ 170-100 SU, ERJ 170-100 SE, ERJ 170-200 LR, ERJ 170-200 STD and ERJ

REASON: 

It has been reported during operational checks that some failures of the Escape Slide P/N 

4A4030-2 and P/N 4A4030-4 installed on the forward passenger and service door have occurred which 

prevented the door from opening. 

Since this condition may occur in other airplanes of the same type and could delay an 

emergency evacuation and increase the chance of injury to passengers and flight crew, a corrective action 

is required. Thus, sufficient reason exists to request compliance with this AD in the indicated time limit. 

REQUIRED ACTION: 

Replacement and modification of the forward escape slides P/N 4A4030-2 and P/N 

4A4030-4. 

COMPLIANCE: 

Required as indicated below, unless already accomplished. 

(a) After 06 months from the effective date of this AD, no airplane may operate with the 

forward escape slide P/N 4A4030-2 or P/N 4A4030-4 on which 18 months or more have elapsed from the 

slide date of manufacture or the date of last slide repack. 

(b) After 18 months from the effective date of this AD, no airplane may operate with 

forward escape slides P/N 4A4030-2 or P/N 4A4030-4.

Review Board Report (MRBR) 1621 Tasks 25-65-01-001 and 25-65-01-002 “EMERGENCY
