Plain English Summary

4/10 complexity

This Airworthiness Directive requires operators of HP137 Mk 1, Jetstream Series 200 and Series 3100 aeroplanes to retire (replace) flap torque shaft assemblies once they reach 18,000 landings or an equivalent measure, following Jetstream Service Bulletin 27‑JA840421 (or later). The change is driven by fatigue testing that identified a required life limit (Background); operators must schedule and pay for the replacements and maintain landing‑count records to meet the deadline.
