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/SWSA226/49 Amdt 1.

Fairchild (Swearingen) SA226 and SA227 Series Aeroplanes

AD/SWSA226/49 Amdt 1 Fuel Vent Line and Electrical Wire
Bundle Support Clamps - Installation 6/2009

Requirement:

CANCELLED.

This AD is cancelled on 4 June 2009.

Background:

This unique Australian AD raised in 1985 against Fairchild Aircraft Corporation Service Bulletin (SB) SB 226-008 and SB 227-28-001 required a modification by installation of support clamps to prevent chaffing between the fuel vent system line and electrical wire bundle located with the wing flap well.

Compliance was:  Within 30 hours TIS after 31 January 1985.

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.

Delegate of the Civil Aviation Safety Authority
