Plain English Summary

4/10 complexity

This Airworthiness Directive mandates an inspection of passenger seat installations on specified Cessna 400‑series aeroplanes, to be completed within 100 hours time‑in‑service after 30 September 1978. Compliance is achieved by following the referenced Cessna service letter (SL ME78‑17) and FAA AD 78‑13‑05. It affects aircraft owners/operators and maintenance organisations, who bear inspection costs, any repairs found, and associated downtime; non‑compliance renders the aircraft non‑conforming.
