Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This mandatory Civil Aviation Safety Authority Airworthiness Directive requires all Embraer EMB‑110 operators to inspect elevator and rudder trim actuators to confirm the securing pin is fitted and to safety‑wire it with 22‑gauge wire without restricting actuator travel, within 10 flight hours after 17 March 1983. It prevents trim‑actuator failure that could impair control; this revision adds an extra part number from the manufacturer's service bulletin.
