Twin Commander (Gulfstream/Rockwell/Aerocommander 500, 600 and 700) Series Aeroplanes

AD/AC/43 Elevator Servo Cable Guard Plate - Installation 8/2008

Requirement:	CANCELLED.
This AD is cancelled on 31 July 2008.
Background:	This unique Australian AD, raised in 1970 against Aero Commander Service Letter (SL) No. 223, required a modification applicable to aircraft equipped with a Mitchell Century III Autopilot system by installation of an elevator servo cable guard plate to prevent the cable clamps catching on the aircraft structure.  Compliance was required within 300 hours TIS after 30 September 1970.  As all affected aircraft would have been modified long ago, this AD is no longer required.
