that a screw that secures the RH lower centre fairing interfered with an electrical harness and caused several short circuits, resulting in the inflation of the emergency floatation gear.
   The purpose of the original issue of this Directive was to detect and prevent any interference between the electrical harnesses and the bottom structure fairing attachment screws post MOD 073774.  Embodiment of a modification in accordance with Eurocopter drawing 350A085342 is considered to be a temporary (interim) solution, to ensure that there is no interference.  Embodiment of a modification in accordance with Eurocopter drawing 350A085340 is the permanent solution that can be applied according to the availability of the helicopter and components.
   This Amendment continues the requirements of the original issue of the Directive but also identifies that new helicopters that have embodied Eurocopter MOD 073591 are not affected by the airworthiness directive.
   The original issue of this Directive became effective on16 November 2006.
