This document cancels an Airworthiness Directive (AD)—a mandatory safety instruction issued by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority that aircraft operators must follow.
What it does:
- Formally cancels directive AD/F28/91, which previously required maintenance or inspection of fuel fire shut-off valve actuators on Fokker F28 aeroplanes.
- The cancellation fixes a registration error: the original directive was mistakenly applied to the entire F28 series when it should only have covered specific models (the F28 70 and 100 series).
- A corrected version of the directive has been separately issued for the appropriate aircraft models.
Who it affects:
- Operators, pilots, and maintenance engineers responsible for Fokker F28 aircraft who were working to comply with the cancelled directive.
Practical effect:
- Compliance with the cancelled AD/F28/91 is no longer required; affected parties should instead follow the replacement directive applicable to their specific F28 model.
