Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

This directive requires operators and maintenance organisations of Fokker F28 aeroplanes with Goodyear main landing‑gear wheels to perform an approved eddy‑current or ultrasonic inspection of the wheel internal flange radius each time a tyre is removed (post‑3 August 1971). It matters because it creates recurring labour and equipment/contracting costs, can lengthen tyre‑change turnarounds, and relies on an unspecified approval process for acceptable NDT techniques.
