Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

What this means: This is a mandatory safety order (called an Airworthiness Directive) issued by Australia's aviation safety regulator for a specific type of aircraft.

Who it affects: Owners and operators of De Havilland Canada DHC-2 "Beaver" aeroplanes with serial numbers 1 through 943, and serial number 946.

What must be done: The aircraft's undercarriage legs (the struts that hold the wheels) must receive anti-corrosion treatment immediately.

Why it matters: Corrosion in the undercarriage can weaken the structure that supports the aircraft during landing and taxiing. This directive requires immediate action to prevent potential failure of the landing gear, which could cause accidents during takeoff or landing.
