Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

What this does: This is a mandatory safety order requiring owners of specific Piper agricultural aircraft to inspect and modify the "jury struts" — structural supports that help stabilise the wings.

Who it affects: Only owners of Piper PA-25-235 model aircraft with serial numbers from 25-2000 to 25-2165 (specific crop-dusting planes built in a certain production run).

What must be done: Owners must follow the instructions in Piper Service Letter No. 387 to inspect and modify these struts before 1 September 1971.

Why it matters: This prevents potential structural failure of the wing supports that could cause a crash. The directive converts a manufacturer recommendation into a legal requirement.
