Summary
We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for Bell Helicopter Textron Canada Limited (Bell) Model 429 helicopters. This proposed AD would require adding an identification number to life- limited rod ends that do not have a serial number (S/N). The proposed actions are intended to address an unsafe condition on these products.
