Tighter Maintenance Requirements For Large Cabin Jets
The US Federal Aviation Administration has proposed a new airworthiness directive for the Dassault Falcon 7X, which would supersede the existing directive and introduce new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations. The proposal aims to address reduced structural integrity and control of the airplane due to system component failures. Operators would need to revise their maintenance or inspection programs to comply with the new limitations, which are based on updates from the European Aviation Safety Agency. The proposal was reported by AviNews.
