Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This directive requires owners/operators and maintenance providers of Cessna 320 series aeroplanes fitted with a strobe in the wing-tip tank nose cap to inspect that area (per the cited Cessna/FAA procedures) within 100 hours after 30 April 1975 and thereafter every 100 hours. It’s intended to detect fuel seepage, creating a recurring compliance cost and operational constraint (or an incentive to avoid/ remove the strobe fitment).
