This certificate is the legal document required for an aircraft to fly.\n\n**Why it matters:** This ensures a critical fuel system component is properly installed and safe before the aircraft enters service, preventing potential fuel supply failures that could lead to engine stoppage."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/ad-cessna-340-1-fuel-pressure-regulator-fitting-inspection","history":"/api/acts/ad-cessna-340-1-fuel-pressure-regulator-fitting-inspection/history","analysis":"/api/acts/ad-cessna-340-1-fuel-pressure-regulator-fitting-inspection/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/ad-cessna-340-1-fuel-pressure-regulator-fitting-inspection/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/ad-cessna-340-1-fuel-pressure-regulator-fitting-inspection/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/ad-cessna-340-1-fuel-pressure-regulator-fitting-inspection/documents"}}
