Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This document officially cancels a previous aviation safety rule that applied to Cessna 180, 182, and Wren 460 aircraft.

What it did: The original directive (issued in 1980) required owners to visually inspect engine mounts near weld joints for cracks or defects.

What happens now: As of 25 September 2008, this specific Australian directive is no longer in force. The inspection requirements are now considered adequately covered by the manufacturer's maintenance manual and Schedule 5 of the aviation regulations.

Who is affected: Owners and operators of these specific aircraft models no longer need to comply with this particular directive, but must continue following the standard maintenance manual requirements.
