EASA AD No.: 2021-0122
Storage life: Calendar time accumulated by a TT-Strap since cure date, including the calendar time
accumulated after first installation on a helicopter, up to the date of first flight after first installation
on a helicopter.
Time in service: Calendar time accumulated by a TT-Strap since first flight after first installation on a
helicopter.
Total life: Calendar time accumulated by a TT-Strap since cure date, which is the sum of storage life
and time in service.
The SLL: Service life limit (SLL), as applicable to the part, identified in the Airworthiness Limitation
Section of the applicable Aircraft Maintenance Manual.
Serviceable part: Lord TT-Straps, as defined in this AD, eligible for installation, and having a storage
life not exceeding 5 years.
Reason:
It has been determined that ageing of the elastomeric material of certain TT-Straps, during the
period since manufacturing date up to first flight on a helicopter, may affect its structural
characteristics.
This condition, if not corrected, could lead to premature failure of a TT-Strap, possibly resulting in
loss of control of the helicopter.
To address this potential unsafe condition, AHD issued the ASB, providing instructions to implement
limits for storage life, as defined in this AD, of certain TT-Straps.
For the reason described above, this AD requires implementation of those storage life limits, and
provides conditions for installation of parts. This AD also requires removal from service of Bendix
TT-Straps, as defined in this AD, and prohibits (re)installation of those straps.
Required Action(s) and Compliance Time(s):
Required as indicated, unless accomplished previously:
Replacement:
(1) Within the compliance time as specified in Table 1 of this AD, as applicable, replace each
Lord TT-Strap and Bendix TT-Strap with a serviceable part in accordance with the instructions of
the ASB.

AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVE
This Airworthiness Directive (AD) is issued pursuant to Canadian Aviation Regulation (CAR) 521.427.
No person shall conduct a take-off or permit a take-off to be conducted in an aircraft that is in their legal
custody and control, unless the requirements of CAR 605.84 pertaining to ADs are met. Standard 625 -
Aircraft Equipment and Maintenance Standards Appendix H provides information concerning alternative
means of compliance (AMOC) with ADs.
Number: Effective Date:
CF-2021-18 20 May 2021
ATA: Type Certificate:
32 A-236
Subject:
Landing Gear – Main Landing Gear (MLG) Lower Spindle Pin Corrosion
Applicability:
Airbus Canada Limited Partnership (formerly C Series Aircraft Limited Partnership, Bombardier Inc.)
model BD-500-1A10 and BD-500-1A11 aeroplanes, all serial numbers.
Compliance:
As indicated below, unless already accomplished.
Background:
There have been several in-service findings of corrosion on the flange of the MLG lower spindle pin. An
investigation revealed that micro-fretting of the anti-rotation washer at the spindle pin flange surface
causes abrasion of the protective coating and leaves the flange area susceptible to corrosion.
The MLG lower spindle pin is a principal structural element (PSE). If the corrosion progresses from the
flange to the adjacent radius area, it can lead to low cycle fatigue (LCF) cracking, failure of the MLG lower
spindle pin, and collapse of the MLG.
In order to mitigate this unsafe condition, this AD mandates initial and repetitive inspections of the MLG
lower spindle pin to detect damage, and to repair or replace the MLG lower spindle pin if damage is
found. This AD is considered interim action and further AD action may follow.
For the purposes of airworthiness monitoring and development of further corrective actions, operators are
strongly encouraged to complete and return the Service Bulletin Findings Record as detailed in Airbus
Canada Service Bulletin (SB) BD500-321003 after completing each inspection.
Corrective Actions:
Part I – Initial Inspection
Inspect and repair or replace, as applicable, the left and right MLG lower spindle pin in accordance with
the Accomplishment Instructions of Airbus Canada SB BD500-321003 Issue 001, dated 13 April 2021, or
later revisions approved by the Chief, Continuing Airworthiness, Transport Canada, within the following
compliance time:
A. MLG having accumulated, as of the effective date of this AD, 5500 total flight cycles (FC) or more:
within 6 months from the effective date of this AD.
B. MLG having accumulated, as of the effective date of this AD, less than 5500 total FC, whichever
occurs last:
1. Whichever occurs first: before accumulating 5500 total FC on the MLG or within 36 months from
the effective date of this AD; or
27.05.2021
2. Within 12 months from the effective date of this AD.

Part II – Repeat Inspection
Thereafter, at intervals of 3000 FC or 24 months, whichever occurs first, carry out repetitive inspections
and repair or replacement, as applicable, of the left and right MLG lower spindle pin in accordance with
the Accomplishment Instructions of Airbus Canada SB BD500-321003 Issue 001, dated 13 April 2021, or
later revisions approved by the Chief, Continuing Airworthiness, Transport Canada.
