Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

Certain Auster/Beagle A.61-series aeroplanes whose wings were not built to specified manufacturer drawings must have additional leading-edge stringing added per Beagle Drawing CSK 3483, and thereafter any wing re-covering must follow that scheme or an alternative approved by the Secretary.

Owners/operators of the named marks/subtypes bear the cost and must comply forthwith; technical execution is guided by Beagle Service Bulletin No. 53 and any Secretary-approved alternative.
