Maintenance disclosure history
Service Difficulty Reports are self-reported maintenance findings. The NUMBER of reports is not a measure of reliability — diligent operators file more, not fewer. These are shown for transparency, not as a negative signal.
2 reports on file.
ON 02/03/2015 ACFT WAS CONDUCTING A TRAINING FLIGHT AND ON THE FINAL LANDING GEAR CYCLE, THE GEAR FAILED TO GIVE A POSITIVE DOWN AND LOCKED INDICATION. THE GEAR WAS TRANSITIONING FROM UP TO DOWN AND BEFORE IT REACHED THE DOWN POSITION, THE CREW HEARD A "POP" AND THEN NOTICE THAT THE LMLG WAS TRAILING. THEY WERE ABLE TO SECURE THE LMLG IN THE DOWN AND LOCKED POSITION BY USE OF A TOWBAR AND LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT. UPON DISASSEMBLY OF THE ACTUATOR, WE FOUND THE POSTON HAS BROKEN BETWEEN THE 2ND AND 3RD TO LAST TEETH, APPROXIMATELY 1" FROM THE END OF THE PISTON. THIS RESULTED IN THE PISTON GEAR LOOSING CONTACT WITH THE SECTOR GEAR AND NOT BEING ABLE TO FULLY EXTEND THE GEAR.
DURING A RECENT LOCAL FLIGHT, PILOT REPORTED SMOKE IN THE COCKPIT. FOUND A DISCONNECTION OF THE PILOT SIDE EXHAUST STACK ASSEMBLY WITH THE ENGINE MUFFLER. THIS SEPARATION OF THE EXHAUST SYSTEM ALLOWED HOT EXHAUST GAS TO BURN UP SOME OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT WIRING AT THE STARTER CONTACTOR AND ITS RELATED AREA.
