Electrical Equipment

AD/ELECT/16 Magneto - Bendix Scintilla
Distributor Gear - Inspection 2/2009

Requirement:

CANCELLED.

This AD is cancelled on 12 February 2009.

Background:

This unique Australian AD raised in 1966 against Bendix Scintilla Service Bulletin (SB) No. 510 required all S600 series Bendix Scintilla magnetos fitted with distributor gears P/N 10-357060 or 10-357060A to be inspected until modified by incorporation of gears P/N 10-357060B.

Compliance was at intervals not exceeding 100 hours TIS until incorporation of gears P/N 10-357060B.

As all affected aircraft would have been inspected and modified by now, this AD is considered to be no longer required.
