Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

What this is: A mandatory safety order (called an Airworthiness Directive) issued by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) — the regulator responsible for aircraft safety.

Who it affects: Owners and operators of aircraft fitted with specific Janitrol combustion-type cabin heaters. The order applies only to heaters with these exact part numbers: 88D81-2, 10E21-2, 10E21-3, 10E21-4, 23E62-1, 23E62-2, 24E07-1, 26E46-1, and 90E00-1 — and only if they use turbine fuels.

What you must do: Inspect and repair the heater according to the technical instructions in "Janitrol Aero Service Bulletin No.75".

Why it matters: To prevent fuel from leaking into the aircraft's cabin ventilation system. This addresses two critical safety risks: carbon monoxide poisoning (toxic fumes entering the cabin) and fire.

Compliance deadline: You must complete the work within 100 hours of heater operating time or within 60 days after 28 February 1986, whichever comes first.
