Mechanics, there’s been a decrease in orders for the bonding jumper wire kits for the Black Hawk main rotors. The Utility Project Office is distributing one (1) kit for every aircraft tail number to ensure all units comply with the suspense date of 18 Feb 2024.
 
If you have not received a kit, check out aviation maintenance action message H-60-22-AMAM-09 with addendums HERE.

Directions on how to request the kits are in the AMAM, which include completing Addendum 3 (.xlxs file) and emailing it to:

usarmy.redstone.peo-avn.mbx.h60-avnmsg-reporting@army.mil
 

If you have installed the main rotor bonding jumper wires, you must report final compliance in AMTRACKS per Paragraph 11.2 of H-60-22-AMAM-09. Aircraft that are not in compliance with the AMAM as of 18 Feb 2024 will be considered administratively grounded.
