Special Airworthiness Information Bulletins (4)

Advisory bulletins on these airframes. Not mandatory like ADs — but operators tracking AD compliance often miss the SAIB on the same component.

  • NM-14-21 Communications: Honeywell RTA 44D VHF Transceivers
  • NM-13-24 Air Conditioning System: Air Distribution Fan
  • NM-13-03 Hydraulic Power System: Power Transfer Unit

Special Conditions + ELOS findings

Certification-time deviations: SCs add requirements where the design is novel; ELOS allows alternative compliance. Most modern types have both.
