Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This is a mandatory Airworthiness Directive (a legally binding safety order) issued by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority for specific Mitsubishi MU-2 aircraft.

What it requires: Owners and operators must remove and modify the engine nacelle upper door rod assembly (a structural support rod on the engine housing door) according to Mitsubishi Service Bulletin No. 179.

Who is affected: All Mitsubishi MU-2 models with serial numbers prior to 697, except serial numbers 313, 321, 652, and 661.

When it had to be done: Unless already completed, the work had to be finished within 100 hours of flight time after 28 February 1978.

Why it matters: These directives are enforceable safety rules. Operating an aircraft without completing the required modification violates aviation law and grounds the aircraft until compliance is achieved.
