Required Bombardier Global Flap Inspections
New Transport Canada Airworthiness Directive released all Globals
This past June, Transport Canada released an Airworthiness Directive CF-2020-49R1 to identify and address corrosion issues with Global wing flaps. This directive mandates that all Global aircraft undergo a flap inspection during any regular maintenance inspection window. Similarly, Bombardier has also issued a service bulletin highlighting that all six (6) flaps require an inspection to check for drainage issues and repair corrosion issues if needed.
Bombardier Global 60, 120, and 240-month inspections
Flap inspection is now required on all 60, 120, and, 240-month inspections and should also be considered highly advisable on any pre-purchase aircraft inspection.
