Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This Airworthiness Directive requires owners/operators of Hughes 269B helicopters with the battery mounted on the tail boom to inspect the battery support bracket (P/N 4805-3) for cracks around the forward attachment bolt hole every 25 flight hours, with inspections to have begun by 30 November 1965 if not already done.

It aims to detect fatigue before the bracket fails and the battery detaches in flight, risking ground injury and aircraft electrical loss.
