This Act has been repealed and is no longer in force. It is retained for historical reference.
This Airworthiness Directive (AD) cancels a previous safety rule for Boeing 747 aircraft.
What it does:
Who it affects: Owners and operators of Boeing 747 series aeroplanes.
Why it matters: Airworthiness Directives are legally binding safety instructions issued by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA). This cancellation means operators must stop using the old directive and follow the requirements in the newer consolidated directive (AD/B747/294 Amdt 1) instead.
