Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This document cancels an old aviation safety rule dating back to 1967 that required owners of specific Beechcraft aircraft (Debonair and Bonanza models) to install insulating sleeves around their tachometer flexdrive cables (the mechanical cable that transmits engine speed readings to the cockpit gauge).

Key points:

Who this affects: Owners and operators of Beechcraft 33 and 35-33 series aeroplanes.
What changed: As of 17 January 2008, you no longer need to comply with this specific maintenance requirement.
Why: The Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) determined that the unsafe electrical interference condition that originally prompted this rule no longer exists, making the requirement obsolete.
