What it does

The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Bombardier, Inc., Model BD-700-1A10, BD-700-1A11, and BD-700- 2A12 airplanes. This AD was prompted by reports that certain seat frames were assembled without applying Loctite in certain locations of concern. This AD requires modification to the non-locking fastener joints of the seat frame assembly. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
