That old rule is now redundant because a newer, general safety directive (AD/GENERAL/74 Amendment 1) covers all aircraft types.\n\n**What happens now:** As of 17 January 2008, owners no longer need to follow this specific directive. Instead, they must comply with the general requirement for pilot restraints under the replacement directive.\n\n**Why it matters:** This cleanup removes outdated paperwork and consolidates safety standards under one universal rule rather than maintaining separate rules for every individual aircraft model."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/ad-fu24-41-pilot-restraint-installation-modification-cancelled","history":"/api/acts/ad-fu24-41-pilot-restraint-installation-modification-cancelled/history","analysis":"/api/acts/ad-fu24-41-pilot-restraint-installation-modification-cancelled/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/ad-fu24-41-pilot-restraint-installation-modification-cancelled/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/ad-fu24-41-pilot-restraint-installation-modification-cancelled/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/ad-fu24-41-pilot-restraint-installation-modification-cancelled/documents"}}
