32-JA960142 TITLE: LANDING GEAR - MAIN GEAR - TO INTRODUCE REPEAT INSPECTION OF PINTLE

TO CYLINDER INTERFACE FOR CRACKS

1. PLANNING INFORMATION A. Effectivity HP137 Mk1, Jetstream Series 200, Jetstream Series 3100 and Jetstream Series 3200 Aircraft, with the following main Landing gear types installed:- Left Main Landing Gear Types: 1863, 1863/4A, 1863/4B, 1863/4C, B00A702850A, BOOA702925A, B01A702925A, B00A703065A, B01A703065A and B00A703030A.

Right Main Landing Gear Types: 1864, 1864/4A, 1864/4B, 1864/4C, B00A702851A, B0OA702926A, B01A702926A, B00A703066A, B01A703066A and B00A703031A.

B. Reason Cracks have been reported in the Main Landing Gear on in-service aircraft. The cracks occur in the region of the pintle to cylinder interface, at the forward inboard location.

This Service Bulletin (SB), at revision 5, supersedes Mandatory Alert SB 32-A- JA941245 revision 3 (Title: Landing Gear - Main Gear - Inspect Pintle to Cylinder Interface for Cracks) issued on MAR 15/96 and mandatory SB 32-JA930343 revision 3 (Title: Landing Gear - Main Gear - Inspect Pintle to Cylinder Interface for Cracks) issued on MAR 15/96.

Both of these SBs gave details of NDT inspections to be accomplished within a given period of accumulated landings.

The requirements of mandatory SB 32-JA930343 and mandatory alert SB 32-A- JA941245 are now incorporated into revision 5 of this SB. Inspections carried out in accordance with (i.a.w.) the above superseded SBs 32-A-JA941245 and 32-JA930343 at revision 3 may be considered as compliant with the requirements of this SB 32- C. Description This SB affects the left and right main landing gear.

The tasks are as follows:-

- Gain access to the pintle to cylinder interface at both left and right main landing gear.

NOTE: In order for Jetstream aircraft to make a full assessment of this problem, it is important that operators report ALL results, including cases where no cracks are found. Please use a copy of the Operator Report Form given at Appendix 2 of this SB and report to BAE SYSTEMS, (Operations) Limited, Repair Design Office, Building 37, Prestwick International Airport, Ayrshire, KA9 2RW, SCOTLAND.

NOTE: Abbreviations used in the accomplishment instructions of this SB are:-

i.a.w. - in accordance with mW/cm? - milliwatts per square centimetre NDI - Non-Destructive Inspection NDT - Non-Destructive Testing SB - Service Bulletin A. Preparation

(1) Gain access to the area at the intersection of the pintle and cylinder at the forward inboard location.

(2) Refer to Figure 1 and remove the paint from the affected area.

(3) Clean the affected area thoroughly.

B. Accomplishment

(1) Refer to Figure 1. Do an eddy current NDT inspection of the affected area i.a.w.

Héroux Devtek SB No.32-56 revision 4. If an operator does not have access to eddy current equipment, it is permissible to do an alternative NDT inspection, with fluorescent penetrant dye, as given at Appendix 1 of this SB.

NOTE: Use of the alternative dye penetrant inspection (refer to Appendix 1) may result in the detection of cracks at a later, more advanced stage.

If the inspection indicates no cracks, reprotect the stripped area i.a.w.

Component Maintenance Manual 32-10-1, 32-10-02 and 32-10-03. Refer to repair number 1 and repair number 3 if anodic finish is removed or damaged.

Refer to repair number 3 only, if anodic finish is intact.

(3) Operators may use the following materials as alternatives to those specified in the above repair number 3:-

- Epoxy Primer • DMS 2144

- Top Coat DMS 2143

JETSTREAM SERiES 3100 & 3200

SERVICE BULLETIN NOTE 1: Temporary reprotection, using Lanolin (MIL-C-16173 Grade 4), may be applied until full surface protection can be returned at next scheduled maintenance.

Tectyl 502 or Tectyl 506G may be used as an alternative to Lanolin - see Note 3 for application and use.

NOTE 2: If Tectyl 502 (brush application) is used, a single coat is to be applied.

If Tectyl 506G (spray application) is used, a first coat is to be applied and allowed to dry then a second coat is to be applied.

NOTE 3: To avoid repeated paint stripping, high utilization operators may apply the Tectyl (not Lanolin) reprotection on a long term basis provided the protection compound is inspected at every Service Check and reapplied as necessary to make sure the unpainted area of the cylinder is completely covered at all times.

(4) If the inspection indicates a crack:-

(a) DO NOT FLY THE AIRCRAFT until the affected landing gear is replaced.

Advise BAE SYSTEMS of the crack and complete the Operator Report Form given at Appendix 2 of this SB.

(5) Aircraft records

(a) Add SB No.32-JA960142 to the aircraft records.

(b) Note the requirement for repeat inspections as applicable.

MATERIAL INFORMATION Refer to Héroux Devtek SB No.32-56 revision 4.

SERVICE BULLETIN NOTE 2: If the penetrant procedure is used to make sure the effective removal of corrosion, the effected area must be polished to a mirror like finish.

(b) Make sure area to be inspected is degreased and clean.

(c) Make sure the surfaces surrounding the area to be inspected are isolated (masked off), to avoid any possible penetrant contamination.

F. Inspection procedure NOTE 3: If an alternative penetrant system is used, then reference must be made to the relevant manufacture's inspection procedure.

(1) Using the pre-cleaner (Magnaflux SKC-S) degrease the area to be inspected.

(2) Spray or brush penetrant (Magnaflux ZL-27A) on to inspection area, contact time 30 to 60 minutes.

(3) Remove excess penetrant with clean cloth.

(4) View surface under ultra-violet light to make sure removal of excess penetrant.
