NTSB Safety Recommendation — Aviation
Recommendation text
The National Transportation Safety Board recommends that the Federal Aviation Administration: Instruct Rockwell Collins to modify its production test and final alignment requirements for the AHC-85 to demonstrate that each AHC-85 is capable of operation throughout its specified operating range of 128º per second of roll, and ensure that the modified test procedures are incorporated in production and postproduction maintenance requirements.
In plain language (FlightFinder summary)
The Federal Aviation Administration is asked to direct Rockwell Collins to update its production test and final alignment requirements for the AHC-85 so that each unit is proven to operate across its full specified roll range of 128 degrees per second, and to ensure these revised tests are included in both manufacturing and postproduction maintenance procedures.
