an internal review, that interchangeability of outboard slats between MFSO and MF900 I F900EX or F2000 / F2000EX had been erroneously authorized in some limited cases.  The outboard slats P/N identification plates also appear to be misleading.  Exchanges occurring after delivery of the aircraft may have led to installation of outboard slats of the type not adapted to the aircraft model.  Repairs may have led to installation of anti-icing manifolds ("piccolos tubes") of a type not adapted to the aircraft model.

             This may jeopardize the aircraft, by modifying its anti-icing performance.

             The purpose of this Airworthiness Directive (AD) is to check that all aircraft are fitted with the correct outboard slats, and to correct, either by an exchange or a repair, any discrepancy encountered.
