Bombardier states that purpose of this Service Bulletin, which effects serial numbers 5301 to 5665, is to remove the epoxy ramp and repair corrosion. The epoxy ramp around the MED, which has been found to deteriorate over time, can allow for moisture to enter which can lead to corrosion damage. Additional modifications include adding draining holes to allow access to facilitate scheduled inspections. On this particular door, corrosion was identified on the MED hinge, the forward and aft lower corners, the lower center channel and hinge fairings.</span></p></div>

The deterioration of this epoxy is likely the source of the trapped moisture which contributed to the spread of the corrosion. Corrosion thrives under humid environments where deterioration of metal can occur relatively quickly. One of the best ways to prevent corrosion damage is to ensure the area in question is protected from moisture as much as possible. Sealant was added in select areas to further protect the area from moisture.</span></p></div>

Having personnel maintain your aircraft that are trained to inspect for early signs of corrosion will help reduce down time and repair cost. Keeping an aircraft washed is imperative to prevent the accumulation of pollutants and dirt and can deter the progression of corrosion. Utilizing a corrosion inhibitor product can also play a role in preventing corrosion. Once identified, repairing corrosion damage is a job best left in the hands of highly trained and certified technicians who are familiar with all aircraft types.</span></p></div>

But what exactly is Permaswaging? Pronounced &quot;swedge&quot;, Permaswaging is a cold-working technique that involves using specialized dies to form one piece of metal around another. In aviation, Permaswaging (sometimes referred to as swaging) is mostly used in fluid systems where a permanent joint with metal to metal sealing is required. Permaswaging results in a mechanical connection between the tubing and fitting that will act as a permanent container for fluid such as hydraulic fluid. Permaswaging aims to produce a uniform reduction of a tube to fitting connection to tolerances that would not require welding or other sealing.</span></p></div>

Bombardier has issued this AD to &quot;address the failure of one of the brake accumulator screw caps/end caps, which could result in impact damage causing loss of both hydraulic systems No. 2 and No. 3, and the consequent loss of both braking and nose wheel steering, the potential for a runway excursion, and damage to the airplane.&quot; Having the tooling on-hand combined with our mobile capabilities made SEAL Aviation the perfect fit to assist with fabricating new hydraulic lines and relocating the hydraulic system.
