Instead, you must comply with a newer, broader rule (**AD/GENERAL/74 Amendment 1**) that covers the same safety requirements across multiple aircraft types.\n\n**Key point:** The cancellation took effect on 17 January 2008. This is essentially a housekeeping measure to remove redundant rules and consolidate them into a single, updated standard."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/ad-dh-60-2-seat-restraint-installations-modification-cancelled","history":"/api/acts/ad-dh-60-2-seat-restraint-installations-modification-cancelled/history","analysis":"/api/acts/ad-dh-60-2-seat-restraint-installations-modification-cancelled/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/ad-dh-60-2-seat-restraint-installations-modification-cancelled/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/ad-dh-60-2-seat-restraint-installations-modification-cancelled/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/ad-dh-60-2-seat-restraint-installations-modification-cancelled/documents"}}
