AD/BEECH 76/6 Wing Spar Centre Splice Plates Cancelled (Cth)

AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVE

On the effective date specified below, and for the reasons set out in the background section, the CASA delegate whose signature appears below revokes Airworthiness Directive AD/BEECH 76/6.

Beechcraft 76 (Duchess) Series Aeroplanes

AD/BEECH 76/6 Wing Spar Centre Splice Plates 7/2008

Requirement:

CANCELLED.

This AD is cancelled on 3 July 2008.

Background:

This unique Australian AD, raised in 1979 against Beechcraft Service Instruction (SI) No. 1071, required an inspection of the wing splice plates for possible scribe marks that may have been caused during manufacture.

Compliance was within 100 hours TIS after 31 October 1979.  As all affected aircraft would have been inspected, and, if necessary, modified long ago, this AD is no longer required.
