AD/BEECH 65/4 - Flap Drive Assembly - Replacement - CANCELLED

What this does: This document officially cancels an old aircraft safety rule from 1967 that required owners of specific Beechcraft planes to replace their flap drive assemblies (the machinery that controls the flaps on the wings).

Who it affects: Owners and operators of Beechcraft 65 and 70 (Queen Air) series aircraft. However, since the original deadline was March 1967, all affected planes would have already completed this work decades ago.

Why it matters: This is a housekeeping measure. The Civil Aviation Safety Authority is removing a redundant rule from the books. Because every plane covered by the original 1967 directive has long since complied (or been retired), the requirement is no longer needed. This simplifies the regulations without changing any practical safety obligations.

Key dates: The cancellation takes effect on 3 July 2008.
