This cancellation simply tidies up the rulebook by removing the old, duplicated directive to avoid confusion. No immediate action is required by aircraft operators because the new directive now covers these requirements."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/ad-b747-259-trailing-edge-flap-actuator-attach-fittings-cancelled","history":"/api/acts/ad-b747-259-trailing-edge-flap-actuator-attach-fittings-cancelled/history","analysis":"/api/acts/ad-b747-259-trailing-edge-flap-actuator-attach-fittings-cancelled/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/ad-b747-259-trailing-edge-flap-actuator-attach-fittings-cancelled/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/ad-b747-259-trailing-edge-flap-actuator-attach-fittings-cancelled/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/ad-b747-259-trailing-edge-flap-actuator-attach-fittings-cancelled/documents"}}
