Built by the Tribune's code from the Federal Register. No AI wrote this page. Published in the Federal Register July 16, 2026. Document 2026-14300. Updated Nov. 8, 2026.

What it does

The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Bombardier, Inc., Model BD-700-2A12 airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by a report that the protective film cover on certain secondary power distribution assemblies (SPDA) might not have been removed. This proposed AD would require an inspection of certain SPDA for the presence of the protective film cover and applicable corrective actions. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
