Commonwealth legislation
This directive requires operators to inspect RIA‑35B ILS receivers for internal fault codes N1/Nm, prohibits Category II and III landing operations until affected receivers are addressed, and mandates replacing or modifying discrepant units to part number 066-50006-1101 in accordance with AlliedSignal Service Bulletin M-4426 Rev 3. Operators must amend the Flight Manual/placard as required and, once all affected receivers are modified, the recurring inspections and placard requirement may be removed.

2. If, during the Requirement 1 (a) inspection, fault code “N1” or “Nm” is found, either replace the existing ILS receiver with a new or serviceable ILS receiver having the same P/N or with an ILS receiver that has been modified to P/N 066- 50006-1101 in accordance with AlliedSignal Electronic and Avionics Systems Service Bulletin (SB) M-4426 (RIA-35B-34-6) Revision 3 dated May 1998.
3. A RIA-35B ILS receiver P/N 066-50006-0101, that has been found to be discrepant (that is on which fault codes “N1” or “Nm” were found during an inspection of the internal fault memory) shall not be installed on any aeroplane unless the discrepancy has been corrected by modifying the ILS receiver in accordance with SB M-4426 (RIA-35B-34-6) Revision 3.
4. Replace all existing RIA-35B ILS receivers, P/N 066-50006-0101, with RIA-35B receivers that have been modified in accordance with SB M-4426 (RIA-35B-34-6) Revision 3 and that have had their P/N’s converted to 066-50006-1101. This constitutes terminating action for the Requirement 1.a. repetitive inspection and allows the removal of the Requirement 1.b. placard, together with any required amendment to the Flight Manual Limitations Section on this subject.
