AD/BELL 206/67 Tail Rotor Drive - Inspection of
Clamp Type Bearing Hangars 11/2008

Requirement:	CANCELLED.
This AD is cancelled on 23 October 2008.
Background:	This unique Australian AD, issued in 1975, required inspection of the tail rotor drive installation in accordance with Bell Alert Service Bulletin 206-75-1 to ensure the correct spacer had been installed in the bearing hanger.  The AD compliance was within 10 hours time in service after the 19 March 1975.  As all aircraft would have been inspected by now, the AD is no longer required.
