EASA AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVE

AD No.: 2014-0001

Date: 06 January 2014

Note: This Airworthiness Directive (AD) is issued by EASA, acting in accordance with Regulation 

(EC) No 216/2008 on behalf of the European Community, its Member States and of the 

European third countries that participate in the activities of EASA under Article 66 of that 

Regulation.

This AD is issued in accordance with EU 748/2012, Part 21.A.3B. In accordance with EC 2042/2003 Annex I, Part M.A.301, the 

continuing airworthiness of an aircraft shall be ensured by accomplishing any applicable ADs. Consequently, no person may operate an 

aircraft to which an AD applies, except in accordance with the requirements of that AD, unless otherwise specified by the Agency [EC 

2042/2003 Annex I, Part M.A.303] or agreed with the Authority of the State of Registry [EC 216/2008, Article 14(4) exemption].

Design Approval Holder’s Name:

Type/Model designation(s):

P2006T aeroplanes

TCDS Number: EASA A.185

Foreign AD: Not applicable

Supersedure: None

ATA 71 Power Plant – Engine Mount – Inspection / Replacement

Manufacturer: Costruzioni Aeronautiche TECNAM srl (TECNAM)

Applicability: P2006T aeroplanes, all serial numbers.

Reason: During a “100 hours” inspection of a P2006T aeroplane, one engine mount Part 

Number (P/N) 26-7-1200-000 was found cracked on a node.

This condition, if not detected and corrected, could lead to engine damage, 

possibly resulting in damage to the aeroplane and injury to the occupants.

To address this potential unsafe condition, TECNAM issued Service Bulletin

(SB) 138-CS-Rev0, providing inspection instructions.

For the reasons described above, this AD requires a one-time inspection of 

each engine mount P/N 26-7-1200-000 and, depending on findings, 

replacement of the engine mount(s).

This AD is considered an interim action and further AD action may follow.
