Service Reliabilityfrom FAA SDR (Service Difficulty Reports)
* Structural ATA chapter (53). Verb-based propensity is suppressed because "REPAIRED" in the SDR text typically refers to the airframe being repaired around the part, not the part itself. FAA K-code component-change rate is the honest signal.

Airworthiness Directive coverage
FAA / EASA public regulatory data
- FAAAD 2022-20-11effective Nov 28, 2022Mixed actions
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Bell Textron Canada Limited Model 429 helicopters. This AD was prompted by reports of failed rivets between the tailboom skin and the tail rotor (TR) gearbox support assembly. This AD requires visually inspecting the external surface of the TR gearbox support assembly, borescope inspecting or visually inspecting the inside of the tailboom for certain conditions, and performing a tactile inspection. Depending on the results of the inspections, this AD requires removing certain rivets from service or repairing gaps in accordance with an approved method. This AD also requires repeating these inspections within certain intervals. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Directives citing this part number in the FAA / EASA regulatory corpus we have processed — not a complete historical AD list. An AD is a compliance requirement that drives scheduled work (inspections, replacements, modifications) on the fleets that carry the part; a directive naming this PN as the replacement part is install demand, not an action against it — and none of this is a prediction that the part will fail.
