REMOVAL OF THE TIE-DOWN SYSTEM INSTALLED FOR CARGO TRANSPORTATION

1. PLANNING INFORMATION

A. EFFECTIVITY

This Service Bulletin is applicable to FALCON 2000 aircraft with serial numbers 1 through 231

equipped with golf bag/ski tie-down system.

B. REASON

The Forward Servicing Compartment (FSC) is the non-pressurized compartment located between

frames 26 and 33 on the F2000. The compartment is accessible from a lockable external door located

in the lower aft fuselage.

An internal review has brought to light the fact that current installation of fixtures in the forward

servicing compartment allows customers to install cargo in this compartment which is not certified as a

proper cargo compartment.

C. DESCRIPTION

This operation consists in:

• removing the golf bag/ski tie-down system,

• installing fasteners on the floor.

D. COMPLIANCE

Mandatory:

• It is anticipated that this Service Bulletin will be rendered mandatory by an EASA Airworthiness

Directive.

• As prescribed by the Airworthiness Authorities of the country of registration of the aircraft.

E. APPROVAL

The technical content of this document is approved under the authority of DOA nr. EASA.21J.051.

F. LABOR

Estimated labor-hours: Refer to Service Bulletin Commercial Summary.

NOTE: These labor-hours only concern the work described in this Service Bulletin and do not include

other maintenance work which may be performed on this occasion.
