FU 24 Series aeroplanes that have been fitted with **Air Parts Modification AP34** (a specific hardware upgrade). **What must be done:** Inspect the Cleveland Wheel and brake assemblies to confirm the **torque plate** (a metal plate that transfers braking force) sits on the outside face of the axle shoulder. It must *not* be trapped between the axle and the lower leg fitting, as this incorrect installation could cause the brake to fail or damage the landing gear. **Deadline:** Complete the inspection within 10 hours of flight time after 5 April 1971."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/ad-fu24-39-cleveland-wheel-and-brake-assembly-inspection","history":"/api/acts/ad-fu24-39-cleveland-wheel-and-brake-assembly-inspection/history","analysis":"/api/acts/ad-fu24-39-cleveland-wheel-and-brake-assembly-inspection/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/ad-fu24-39-cleveland-wheel-and-brake-assembly-inspection/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/ad-fu24-39-cleveland-wheel-and-brake-assembly-inspection/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/ad-fu24-39-cleveland-wheel-and-brake-assembly-inspection/documents"}}
