This directive references a German aviation safety notice (LBA AD 97-330), showing it implements an international safety standard.\n\n**Bottom line:** If you own or fly one of these specific planes, you had a one-month deadline to get this fuse upgrade done or the aircraft couldn't legally fly."},"flash_summary":{"complexity_score":2,"scope_assessment":{"changed":false,"description":"The Directive's scope does not change from its stated purpose: it explicitly limits action to installing additional fuses on circuit breaker panels 10VE and 11VE for Model 328‑100 serial numbers 3005–3095 and sets a 30‑day compliance deadline.
