Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

This AD requires installation of stops in the rudder‑pedal adjustment mechanism on specified Fokker F28 aircraft, to be carried out per Fokker Service Bulletin F28/27‑158 Revision 1, addressing a risk of insufficient rudder deflection when pedals are fully forward.

It applies only to the listed serial numbers (the amendment narrowed that list), was mandatory by 1 September 1986, and imposes one‑time parts, labour and downtime costs on the affected owners/operators.
