Now, over 40 years later, aviation safety regulators have decided this rule is obsolete because all the unsafe reels have presumably been replaced or the aircraft retired. This cancellation removes a redundant compliance burden.\n\n**Key takeaway:** If you were still worrying about AN-R-29 inertia reels, you can stop now."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/ad-res-5-amdt-1-inertia-reels-an-r-29-replacement-cancelled","history":"/api/acts/ad-res-5-amdt-1-inertia-reels-an-r-29-replacement-cancelled/history","analysis":"/api/acts/ad-res-5-amdt-1-inertia-reels-an-r-29-replacement-cancelled/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/ad-res-5-amdt-1-inertia-reels-an-r-29-replacement-cancelled/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/ad-res-5-amdt-1-inertia-reels-an-r-29-replacement-cancelled/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/ad-res-5-amdt-1-inertia-reels-an-r-29-replacement-cancelled/documents"}}
