Plain English Summary

6/10 complexity

This AD mandates an immediate physical rework of the throttle levers on all Piper PA‑18 and PA‑19 (Super Cub) aeroplanes. Owners/operators must arrange and pay for parts, labour and downtime; maintenance organisations and certifying engineers must interpret the AD’s illustration to perform and certify the work. Issued under Part 39, the directive implies a safety concern but gives no explicit hazard, procedures, alternatives or phased compliance.
