This Airworthiness Directive becomes effective on 13 July 2007.

Background:	The FAA ADs listed in Table 1 of this Directive require one time actions for which the compliance date and/or period has passed.  CASA has determined that these ADs may be applicable to recently registered or imported Australian aircraft.  This Directive is issued to ensure all State of Design ADs are complied with.
CASA appreciates that, due to date of aircraft manufacture or aircraft configuration and modification status, not all the ADs listed in Table 1 will be applicable to all GIV-X, GV and GV-SP series aeroplanes.
