This AD requires owners/operators of U206G and TU206G Cessna 206s modified under Soloy STC SA2353NM to retire life‑limited components listed in Table I‑8 of the Soloy Turbine Pac Maintenance & Overhaul Manual (Rev.2, 1 Aug 1984) at the published lives and follow that manual’s procedures.

It tightens safety by preventing operation beyond assessed retirement lives, while shifting replacement, downtime and administrative costs to the affected operators.
