Summary
The FAA is superseding an existing airworthiness directive (AD), which applies to all Dassault Model Falcon 2000, Mystere-Falcon 900, Falcon 900EX, Fan Jet Falcon, Mystere-Falcon 50, Mystere-Falcon 20, Mystere-Falcon 200, and Falcon 10 series airplanes. That AD currently requires repetitive tests and inspections to detect discrepancies of the overwing emergency exit, and corrective action if necessary. This new AD expands the applicability of the existing AD and extends the repetitive test and inspection intervals for all airplanes. This AD results from reports of incorrect operation of the overwing emergency exit due to interference between the emergency exit and the interior accommodation. We are issuing this AD to prevent failure of the overwing emergency exits to open, and consequent injury to passengers or crewmembers during an emergency evacuation.
