AD/CESSNA 210/25 - Main Gear Wheel Assemblies - Modification - CANCELLED

What this does: This document cancels an old aviation safety rule (called an Airworthiness Directive or AD) that applied to Cessna 210 series aircraft.

The old rule: Since 1974, owners of these planes were required to modify their main landing gear wheel assemblies by replacing 1/4 inch wheel bolts with stronger 5/16 inch cap screws. This prevented dangerous wheel failures during landing.

The change: The rule is now cancelled because every affected aircraft has already been modified over the past 34 years. The safety risk no longer exists, so the regulatory requirement is obsolete.

Who is affected: Aircraft owners, operators, and maintenance engineers.

Bottom line: This removes a redundant compliance burden. No action is required.
