Abstract

The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2006-20- 08, which applied to all Embraer S.A. Model EMB-145, -145ER, -145MR, - 145LR, -145XR, -145MP, and -145EP airplanes. AD 2006-20-08 required repetitive inspections to detect cracking or failure of the rod ends and fittings of the aileron power control actuator (PCA), and corrective actions if necessary, and provided an optional terminating action. This AD was prompted by a determination that there was an error in identifying a maintenance task number. This AD continues to require the actions in AD 2006-20-08 and corrects an error in a task number, as specified in an Ag[ecirc]ncia Nacional de Avia[ccedil][atilde]o Civil (ANAC) AD, which is incorporated by reference. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
