The work had to be done within 100 hours of flying time after August 1984, following specifications in a Piper Service Bulletin No. 776.\n\n**Why it is being cancelled:** As of 31 July 2008, this safety requirement is no longer needed because all affected aircraft have already been modified. The cancellation removes the obligation since compliance is now universal.\n\n**Who this affects:** Owners and operators of Piper PA-31 series aeroplanes. No action is required—this simply removes an outdated compliance requirement."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/ad-pa-31-107-fuel-quantity-placards-cancelled","history":"/api/acts/ad-pa-31-107-fuel-quantity-placards-cancelled/history","analysis":"/api/acts/ad-pa-31-107-fuel-quantity-placards-cancelled/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/ad-pa-31-107-fuel-quantity-placards-cancelled/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/ad-pa-31-107-fuel-quantity-placards-cancelled/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/ad-pa-31-107-fuel-quantity-placards-cancelled/documents"}}
