Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 2 costs, 0 mixed.

Limits on CAT II/III Landings

If you operate a Dassault Model FALCON 2000EX airplane, the FAA proposes you must implement an operational limitation for Category (CAT) II and CAT III approaches as specified by the referenced EASA airworthiness directive. This would restrict how those affected airplanes can conduct CAT II and CAT III instrument approach landings until the required actions are completed.

Inspect and Reinstall VOR/LOC Coupler

If you operate certain Dassault Model FALCON 2000EX airplanes, the FAA proposes you must inspect the VOR/LOC (very high frequency omnidirectional range/localizer) antenna coupler and reinstall it if necessary, following the procedures in the referenced EASA AD. These inspections and any required reinstallations are intended to address reports of incorrect installation of that antenna coupler.
