SB: NLG Limit Switch Over-Engagement (SB-012624-A) (Mandatory)

ICON Aircraft has received service reports of the Nose Landing Gear (NLG) collapsing during ground operations, along with reports of improper gear extension during flight operations. ICON has determined that the cause of these incidents is the over-engagement of the NLG limit switches, which can be primarily attributed to actuator wear and incorrect rigging. Updated rigging instructions and a design improvement have been developed to remedy this.
