Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

What this does: This directive requires regular safety inspections of brake cables on specific light aircraft to prevent mechanical failure.

Who it affects: Owners and operators of Piper PA-22 series aeroplanes (including Tri-Pacer and Colt models).

What you must do: Inspect the brake cables at intervals of no more than 100 hours of flight time, following the technical procedures set out in Piper Service Letter No. 369.

Why it matters: Worn or damaged brake cables can fail completely, making it impossible to stop or slow the aircraft on the ground. This rule ensures potential problems are identified during routine maintenance before they cause accidents.
