Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

This directive requires owners/operators of listed Pilatus Britten‑Norman BN‑2 aeroplanes to carry out a specified elevator trim‑tab modification per Pilatus BN‑2/S.B 142 Issue 4 before a Certificate of Airworthiness is issued, and to carry out continuing inspections thereafter (every 100 hours TIS under Issue 4). Operators pay and schedule the work; the regulator enforces compliance via certification. It matters because it creates an upfront cost and certification gate but reduces ongoing inspection frequency if the modification is done.
