SIAI Marchetti FN-333 (Riviera) Series Aeroplanes

AD/FN-333/3 Inlet Manifold Rear Drain - Modification 6/2009

Requirement:

CANCELLED.

This AD is cancelled on 4 June 2009.

Background:

This unique Australian AD raised prior to 1970 required a modification to fit an outside fuel drain line to the inlet manifold rear drain valve, similar to those fitted to the forward manifold drains, ensuring that drain line would drain excess fuel clear of the exhaust system.

Compliance was:  Forthwith.

This AD has been sufficiently promulgated for the affected aircraft to have been modified by now; therefore this AD is considered to be no longer required.
