This Airworthiness Directive requires operators of aircraft fitted with the Precise Flight SVS III standby vacuum system (installed under the listed FAA STCs or by local modification) to add the manufacturer's or FAA flight‑manual material, install specified placards, and inspect the push–pull cable, vacuum lines, saddle fittings and shuttle valve per the installation report.

Aircraft owners/operators pay for and carry out these updates and inspections; the steps change documentation, placarding and maintenance checks to address the identified unsafe condition (Requirements 1–3; Notes).
