This must be completed before the aircraft reaches 500 flight hours (counted from when this rule took effect).\n\n**Why it matters:** This prevents potential failures of the wheel well fender that could compromise aircraft safety and airworthiness."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/ad-beech-200-17-nacelle-wheel-well-fender-installation","history":"/api/acts/ad-beech-200-17-nacelle-wheel-well-fender-installation/history","analysis":"/api/acts/ad-beech-200-17-nacelle-wheel-well-fender-installation/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/ad-beech-200-17-nacelle-wheel-well-fender-installation/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/ad-beech-200-17-nacelle-wheel-well-fender-installation/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/ad-beech-200-17-nacelle-wheel-well-fender-installation/documents"}}
