The directive specified a compliance deadline of 1 September 1972, after which aircraft could not legally fly without this modification."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/ad-pa-32-23-front-seat-restraint-installations-modification","history":"/api/acts/ad-pa-32-23-front-seat-restraint-installations-modification/history","analysis":"/api/acts/ad-pa-32-23-front-seat-restraint-installations-modification/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/ad-pa-32-23-front-seat-restraint-installations-modification/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/ad-pa-32-23-front-seat-restraint-installations-modification/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/ad-pa-32-23-front-seat-restraint-installations-modification/documents"}}
