ACORDING TO THE FLIGHT CREW, DURING CLIMB OUT IN LEVEL FLIGHT, THE FIRST OFFICER'S ATTITUDE DIRECTIONAL INDICATOR (ADI) INDICATED AN 8-DEGREE BANK TO THE RIGHT. THIS CONDITION WAS FOLLOWED BY A SERIES OF MESSAGES APPEARING ON THE 802 PANEL INCLUDING HSI MISMATCH, AHRS DATA INVALID, ADI PITCH MISMATCH AND YD DISENGAGED. THE CREW RETUNED TO THE BGM AIRPORT AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS TAKEN TO THE ALLEGHENY AIRLINES MAINTENANCE HANGAR. MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL REMOVED AND REPLACED THE #2 AHRS AND @2 ADI. THE AIRCRAFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE. THIS INCIDENT IS CONSIDERED CLOSED.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
