Hello All,
I have often accessed the FAA website on AD's and also the ones for Type Certificate and STC's.
I've never had a problem with any of them and found them extremely good, if perhaps a little slow now and then.
John Towner, who cannot post messages to the chatlist has just emailed me and expressed the same opinion.
He says:
"I have read some the TCFG fellows comments about AD's on the TCFG chat page (my computer will not let me respond to the chat page, just to individuals).
I just queried AD 98-08-19 from the FAA web site and it came up AOK in its entirety.
Just a suggestion, but if the TCFG web site would list the AD's applicable to Aero Commanders it would be easy for the owners to access the FAA web site as I did.
I have read on the chat page some of the info about the TCFG get together at PWA this year in September and it should be a wonderful and very special time to have it at PWA.
PS - I think I told you we did an alternate method of compliance for AD 98-08-19 and it really has saved us and Commander owners a lot of money.
When 98-08-19 came out if we had not gained the AMC it would have put us out of business."
Very Best Regards,
Barry

From the perspective of a typical individual who is wanting to learn
|
about AD issues for a specific airframe, there is a major weakness in
the FAA's web site - the lack of cross-referencing. For example, if you
search ADs for twin Commander thinking you'll find all applicable
information, you'll miss a lot of very critical accessory ADs (props,
engines, pumps, brakes, etc). You really have to know the airplane
components in detail to know everything to go hunting for. In this day
and age, it should be reasonable to expect that you could automatically
acquire all associated ADs via the search engine on the web site. Their
database should pull up associated Hartzell prop AD's, for example, when
you search for "680 Commander". I'll grant that STC's and modifications
make it a bit more challenging, but still do-able.
Lack of online SB's just make it all the more difficult....
