AD/CESSNA 205/2 - Aft Seat Belt Attachment - CANCELLED

This document officially cancels an old aviation safety rule called an Airworthiness Directive (a legally binding order issued by the aviation regulator to fix unsafe conditions in aircraft).

What it cancelled: A 1963 rule that required owners of Cessna 205 (also designated 210-5) series aircraft to strengthen the attachment points for the aft (rear) seat belts. The original rule required this modification to be completed within 100 hours of flight time after February 1979.

Why it matters: The Civil Aviation Safety Authority has cancelled this directive because it is now obsolete. All affected aircraft would have completed the required safety work decades ago, so the rule is no longer necessary.

Who is affected: Owners and operators of Cessna 205 series aircraft. No action is required—the cancellation simply removes a redundant requirement that has already been fulfilled.
