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:
It has been found the occurrence of smoke in the flight deck originated from Pitot 1/2 and TAT 1/2 current sensor relays and [their] respective sockets, caused by poor electrical contacts between those relays and their sockets.
The unsafe condition is that smoke in the flight deck may interfere with the flightcrew's ability to operate the airplane. The proposed AD would require actions that are intended to address the unsafe condition described in the MCAI.
