BULLETIN Aircraft Certification Service Washington, DC U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration No. CE-00-37 September 21, 2000 We post SAIBs on the internet at "av-info.faa.gov" This is information only. Recommendations are not mandatory.
Introduction The purpose of this Special Airworthiness Information Bulletin is to advise owners/operators of certain SOCATA Morane Saulnier (M.S.) and Rallye Series airplanes of the need to review the service bulletin listed below. These airplanes are type certificated for operations in the U.S. (by type certificate 7A14).
Background The Small Airplane Directorate, Aircraft Certification Service, of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) conducts reviews of SOCATA Morane Saulnier (M.S.) and Rallye Series airplanes service bulletins and French Airworthiness Directives as they are received. The purpose of the review was to evaluate each service bulletin to determine the continued airworthiness safety aspect. The options considered by the FAA include: mandated compliance by initiation of an FAA Airworthiness Directive (AD), various forms of notices, or no further action required.
Owners/operators of SOCATA Morane Saulnier (M.S.) and Rallye Series airplanes should also note that there have been Airworthiness Directives issued against these airplanes concerning other safety issues.
Recommendations The service bulletin identified in this document was not considered appropriate for AD action at this time, however, the FAA strongly suggests that all owners/operators of the SOCATA Morane Saulnier (M.S.) and Rallye Series airplanes review the compliance with the service bulletin listed below.
