Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

This Airworthiness Directive requires operators of all BAe Jetstream 4100 series aircraft to inspect passenger-seat rails per BAE Mandatory Service Bulletin J41‑53‑050 Rev 1 (or a later CAA/EASA‑approved revision), initially within 30 days after 20 February 2008 if not already done, and then at intervals not exceeding two years. It responds to corrosion from fluid spillage and debris; aircraft operators must pay for inspections and any remedial work, and CASA enforces compliance.
