Required EDU Modifications for Dassault Jets
If you own or operate a Dassault Falcon 7X, Falcon 900EX, or Falcon 2000EX airplane, the FAA requires you to modify certain electronic display units (EDUs) because reported swelling of the lithium‑polymer internal and external batteries can create an unsafe condition. The AD requires performing the EDU modifications specified in the incorporated European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) airworthiness directive to address the issue.
Prohibition on Reinstalling Affected Parts
The AD prohibits installation of the affected EDU parts on the specified Falcon 7X, 900EX, and 2000EX airplanes; you may not reinstall the old, affected units after removal. The prohibition and the list of affected parts are those specified in the EASA AD incorporated by reference.
