This Airworthiness Directive requires operators of Boeing 767 aeroplanes with General Electric CF6-80C2 engines to modify the thrust-reverser control system by performing the work specified in FAA Airworthiness Directive 2000-09-04. The CASA delegate issued the requirement to ensure the thrust-reverser has fail‑safe features to prevent in‑flight deployment. Airlines and aircraft owners must arrange and pay for the modifications and comply with the FAA-prescribed procedures and timing; CASA enforces the requirement under CAR 1998 subregulation 39.1(1).
