COMMONWEALTH OF AUSTRALIA (Civil Aviation Regulations 1998), PART 39 - 105 CIVIL AVIATION SAFETY AUTHORITY
 SCHEDULE OF AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES

 AMD Falcon 50 and 900 Series Aeroplanes

AD/AMD 50/7
 Amdt 1

 Applicability: Falcon 900 aircraft.

Nose Gear Shock Absorber 11/94

 Requirement: Action in accordance with Dassault Aviation Alert Service Bulletin F900-150.

            Note: DGAC AD 94-098-014(B)R1 refers.

 Compliance: Unless already accomplished, prior to 13 November 1994.

            Background:  The manufacturer had defined a procedure to check the charge of the low pressure chamber of the nose gear shock absorber. This action was required to prevent the possibility of a gear retraction when the nose gear is not fully extended.

            Amendment 1 is issued in response to a revision of the relevant DGAC AD which requires a modification that is designed to interrupt retraction of the landing gear when the NLG shock absorber is not fully extended.
