The original directive, issued in 1976, required operators to fit protective shrouds around the fuel crossfeed line bulkhead fittings, following Cessna Service Letter ME76-7. Compliance was mandatory before 1 October 1976.\n\nThe Civil Aviation Safety Authority has cancelled the AD because the required modification has been completed on all affected aircraft and the unsafe condition no longer exists. The cancellation took effect on 5 June 2008.\n\nIf you operate or maintain a Cessna 340 series aircraft, this cancellation means there is no current requirement to perform that modification. The AD is no longer in force and no further action is needed. The cancellation notice serves as a record that the safety concern has been permanently addressed."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/ad-cessna-340-10-fuel-crossfeed-line-fittings-modification-cancelled","history":"/api/acts/ad-cessna-340-10-fuel-crossfeed-line-fittings-modification-cancelled/history","analysis":"/api/acts/ad-cessna-340-10-fuel-crossfeed-line-fittings-modification-cancelled/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/ad-cessna-340-10-fuel-crossfeed-line-fittings-modification-cancelled/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/ad-cessna-340-10-fuel-crossfeed-line-fittings-modification-cancelled/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/ad-cessna-340-10-fuel-crossfeed-line-fittings-modification-cancelled/documents"}}
