Summary
We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above. This proposed AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as:
In some cases the electric motor of the spindle drive detached itself from the spindle drive, causing the powerplant to retract itself after engine shutdown. In another case the attachment fork on the spindle drive failed with the same consequences.
The proposed AD would require actions that are intended to address the unsafe condition described in the MCAI.
