Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

Owners of vintage De Havilland Moth DH60G/DH60M aircraft must immediately inspect compression leg tie‑rods in the landing gear. Checks ensure the bottom nut is a standard 1/4" BSF slotted type with undamaged threads, the rod is long enough for full nut engagement, and the top riveted head is tight. Alternative compliance may follow ANO 105.1.14.2.6.1 or Part 100 Appendix A Notice 6/4.
