Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This document officially scraps a previous safety inspection rule for certain Piper aircraft.

What it affects Owners and operators of Piper PA-23 Apache and Aztec aeroplanes.

What it does This directive cancels an earlier rule (Airworthiness Directive AD/PA-23/35) that required a one-time inspection of the stabiliser attachment fittings — the metal parts that connect the tail section to the aircraft body. The original rule required this inspection to be completed within 100 hours of flying time after November 1967.

Why it matters As of 28 August 2008, aircraft owners no longer need to perform this specific inspection. The Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) determined the inspection is no longer necessary for safety, removing a compliance burden from operators of these older aircraft.
