Title: How do you do an AD search for an aircraft?
Post by: Wolfala on December 29, 2006, 11:41:26 PM
Is there a website or service you gotta sign up for to compile relevant AD's? Kinda lost.

Any competent mechanic will have access for you as well.

Funny thing is, I found this about 5 mins after posting. Was trying to find stuff on Grumman T-cats - but thanks for the follow up.

Wolfie,

Keep in mind that you need the logs of the aircraft and the actual bird to determine if the AD's have been complied with or actually apply to the bird. Some are one time, some are recurring, some drop off if changes have been made, (example new design prop) and others are specific to a serial number range. You need the bird to see if some of them have been actually done instead of "pencil whipped" in the logs.
