The inspection had to happen by the next scheduled maintenance check after 21 March 1991.\n\n**Why it matters now:** The rule became obsolete and was formally cancelled on 17 January 2008. This means affected aircraft owners no longer need to comply with this specific inspection requirement."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/ad-pa-28-89-aircraft-repair-cancelled","history":"/api/acts/ad-pa-28-89-aircraft-repair-cancelled/history","analysis":"/api/acts/ad-pa-28-89-aircraft-repair-cancelled/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/ad-pa-28-89-aircraft-repair-cancelled/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/ad-pa-28-89-aircraft-repair-cancelled/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/ad-pa-28-89-aircraft-repair-cancelled/documents"}}
