Now, that specific inspection requirement is **cancelled** effective 14 April 2005.\n\nInstead of doing a separate inspection, compliance with the US safety standards will now be checked during your regular **Certificate of Airworthiness inspection** (the routine safety check all aircraft must undergo to remain registered).\n\n**Why it matters**\n\nThis removes a standalone inspection obligation and folds the safety check into your existing regular maintenance schedule, reducing administrative burden while maintaining safety standards."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/ad-s-62-5-amdt-1-main-rotor-shaft-cancelled","history":"/api/acts/ad-s-62-5-amdt-1-main-rotor-shaft-cancelled/history","analysis":"/api/acts/ad-s-62-5-amdt-1-main-rotor-shaft-cancelled/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/ad-s-62-5-amdt-1-main-rotor-shaft-cancelled/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/ad-s-62-5-amdt-1-main-rotor-shaft-cancelled/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/ad-s-62-5-amdt-1-main-rotor-shaft-cancelled/documents"}}
