Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

What this is: This document cancels a previous safety rule (Airworthiness Directive AD/DAUPHIN/1) that required regular inspections of the tail rotor and tail gearbox support on Eurocopter SA 360 and SA 365 Dauphin helicopters.

Why it matters: Owners and operators of these helicopters no longer need to comply with this specific directive. The inspection requirement hasn't disappeared—it's just been moved into the standard maintenance manual (Periodic Review and Examination section 05.44.00). This simplifies compliance by removing a redundant standalone rule.

Who it affects: Operators and maintenance crews working on Eurocopter Dauphin series helicopters registered in Australia.
