FLIGHT CONTROLS FLAPS

PROTECTION AGAINST UNTIMELY RETRACTION OF FLAPS

1. PLANNING INFORMATION A. EFFECTIVITY This Service bulletin is applicable to FALCON 900LX aircraft with serial numbers 240, 242 through

273.

B. REASON Several aircraft experienced rejected take offs due to untimely inboard flap retraction upon take-off roll.

Investigation confirmed that the root cause was an improper adjustment of the outboard slat extended microswitch which could lead to flap retraction.

The purpose of this Service Bulletin is to prevent untimely flap retraction in case of outboard slat extended microswitch failure or improper adjustment.

C. DESCRIPTION The operation consists in modifying the flaps control logic by:

• replacing slats/flaps control box ( 2CG),

• modifying the aircraft electrical wiring between slats/flaps control box (2CG) and "7° FLAPS" control relay (8CG).

D. COMPLIANCE Compliance with this Service Bulletin should be done no later than the next "12 M" inspection.

E. APPROVAL This Service Bulletin covers DASSAULT AVIATION modification FALCON F900EX M6043 that has been approved under the authority of DOA nr. EASA.21J.051.

2. ACCOMPLISHMENT INSTRUCTIONS A. GENERAL ELECTRICAL INSTRUCTIONS

(1) When mechanical retrofit and/or modification operations are performed on the aircraft, take special care to protect the wiring in order to prevent metal chips (or burrs) from penetrating into the wire bundles, since they could eventually damage the insulation sheathing of the wires.

Whenever possible, it is recommended that the wiring be removed from the work area. If that is not possible, it is absolutely necessary to protect the wiring.

(2) Due to the risk of damaging the wire insulation, it is prohibited to blindly drill holes through a box structure containing wiring.

(3) To allow passage through the pressure seal boxes, use one of the spare wires mounted in these boxes.

(4) New wires that are installed alongside existing wires should be secured by the existing clamp.

(5) Check that all connections are properly protected to ensure proper insulation, and that markings are visible and appropriate.

(6) Connector wires should be inserted and extracted as per the recommendations in Standard practices, (Refer to TASK 20-95-00-910-801).

(7) Electric and electronic equipment should be removed and installed as per the recommendations in Standard Practices, (Refer to TASK 20-00-00-910-801).

(8) Visually inspect the work area for particles or debris, then vacuum-clean. The blowing of compressed air is prohibited since it could move metal chips to inaccessible areas.

(9) Wiring diodes must be installed in the unbent sections of bundles, attached with moderately tightened lacing tape. Do not use self-tightening clamps or wire ties.

B. PRELIMINARY STEPS Refer to fig. 1

(1) The aircraft must be in the maintenance configuration (Refer to TASK 20-00-00-910-803).

(2) Obey the flight control system maintenance and safety precautions (Refer to TASK 27-00-00-910-801).

(3) Obey the electrical system maintenance and safety precautions (Refer to TASK 24-00-00-910-801).

(4) Connect the electrical Ground Power Unit (GPU) (Refer to TASK 24-00-00-860-801).

(5) Connect the hydraulic GPU to the hydraulic systems 1 and 2 (Refer to TASK 29-00-00-860-801).

(6) Remove the copilot seat ( R2MG) (Refer to TASK 25-11-01-900-801).

(7) For aircraft with new cockpit design, remove pedestal casing (Refer to TASK 25-13-13-900-803, paragraph "Removal / Installation Of The Pedestal Casing")

(8) For aircraft without new cockpit design, remove pedestal access panels ( 221CZ) and (222AZ).
