Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This AD requires all Airparts (NZ) FU 24 series aeroplanes to carry specified crash axes in set cockpit/cargo locations, with different fitment depending on whether the aircraft is used for agricultural work or configured to carry fuselage passengers. Operators/owners must procure and install the axes within the AD’s 100‑hour service window (after 30 Sept 1971), bearing equipment, labour and recordkeeping costs; the directive prescribes locations but leaves installation details to the operator/maintainer.
