Sky Regional – Embraer ERJ 170-200 – Flap Issue

2019-04-20
C-FUJE, an Embraer ERJ 170-200 aircraft operated by Sky Regional Airlines, was conducting flight SKV7675 from Boston/General Edward Lawrence Logan Intl (KBOS), MA to Toronto/Lester B. Pearson Intl (CYYZ), ON. Just before activating the flap lever during the descent into CYYZ, the flight crew observed a SLAT FAIL EICAS message.

The flight crew interrupted the approach and requested vectors in order to complete the checklist. Subsequently, ARFF was requested on stand
by for the flapless landing, and the aircraft landed on Runway 05 without incident. The aircraft stopped on the taxiway for inspection, and was authorized to taxi to the gate, followed by ARFF behind.

The operator’s maintenance inspected the aircraft and determined that the number 2 Slat/Flap Actuator Control Electronics (SF-ACE) needed to be replaced.
