Summary

We are superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2016-08-05 for certain Bombardier, Inc. Model CL-600-2C10 (Regional Jet Series 700, 701, & 702) airplanes, Model CL-600-2D15 (Regional Jet Series 705) airplanes, Model CL-600-2D24 (Regional Jet Series 900) airplanes, and Model CL-600-2E25 (Regional Jet Series 1000) airplanes. AD 2016-08-05 required replacement of affected angle of attack (AOA) transducers. This new AD requires the same actions as AD 2016-08-05. This new AD was prompted by a report of a typographical error in the regulatory text of AD 2016-08-05. We are issuing this AD to detect and replace incorrectly calibrated AOA transducers; incorrect calibration of the transducers could result in late activation of the stick pusher.
