Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

This airworthiness directive requires all BAe 146 series aircraft to be inspected for corrosion at the horizontal‑to‑vertical stabiliser attachment brackets, in line with British Aerospace Mandatory Service Bulletin 55‑15. It became effective 17 July 1997.

Owners and operators must schedule inspections and any necessary follow‑up work at the thresholds set in the service bulletin and bear the inspection, repair and downtime costs. The Civil Aviation Safety Authority enforces compliance; the directive changes routine maintenance obligations rather than introducing new design rules.
