IMPROVED STALL WARNING SYSTEM FOR ICING CONDITION (BASIC WINGTIP)

Mod No. 3529

1. PLANNING INFORMATION

A. EFFECTIVITY

(1) Aircraft:

Aircraft Mfg. Serial No’s SAAB SF340A – 004–159.

Aircraft Mfg. Serial No’s SAAB 340B – 160–169, 171–341, 343–361, 364–366, 368–371, 373–378,

380–384, 386–394, 396–404, 406–408, 410–430, 432–454, 456–459.

NOTE: Service Bulletin SAAB 340–27–109 (Mod No 3311, 3528, 3542) or 

Service Bulletin SAAB 340–27–120 (Mod No 3311, 3528) must be included before or in

conjunction with this Service Bulletin. 

(A/C POST Service Bulletin SAAB 340–27–120 includes A/C both PRE and POST

SB340–27–097, and both PRE and POST SB340–27–116)

NOTE: This Service Bulletin supersedes and cancels Service Bulletin SAAB340–27–098.

NOTE: This Service Bulletin is applicable for A/C with Basic Wingtip:

(A/C with Basic Wingtip are A/C PRE Service Bulletin SAAB340–57–026 and PRE

Service Bulletin SAAB340–57–030 and without Option 57:01)

NOTE: Implementation of this Service Bulletin require changes to procedures and performance

when Engine Anti–Ice is used.

(2) Spares: Not affected.

B. REASON

Natural stall has in few cases been experienced in icing condition before stall warning. In order to

prevent such unsafe condition a modified stall warning system has been developed.

This Service Bulletin installs the new stall warning computers and activates the modified stall warning

system that includes stall warning curves that are optimized for operation in icing conditions. The ice

compensated stall warning curves are activated by selection of Engine Anti Ice.

C. DESCRIPTION

This Service Bulletin gives instructions for:

– removal of panels for access

– removal of the existing stall warning computers

– removal of blank label or INOP label, at the push button switch 3WHC

– removal of shrinkable tubing and/or cable–tie at the circuit breaker 2WHC

– installation and/or activation of the circuit breaker 2WHC

– installation of labels for the push button switch 3WHC and for the circuit breaker 2WHC

– connection of parked and stowed wires

– installation of the new stall warning computers

– installation of the removed access panels

– functional test of the stall warning system.
