This Airworthiness Directive requires operators of Dornier 328-100 aeroplanes to carry out a visual inspection of the left and right outboard wing Rib 21 for fuel leaks, using Dornier Alert Service Bulletin ASB-328-57-020 (or a later LBA‑approved revision). The initial inspection must be done within 30 days; thereafter inspections are to be repeated at each “5A check” or at intervals not exceeding six months. The measure responds to reported fuel leakage at Rib 21 and imposes an operator compliance and maintenance burden.
