AD/PA-28/24 - Control Wheel Retaining Pin - Modification - CANCELLED

What this is: This document officially scraps an old aircraft safety rule that is no longer needed.

What it does: It cancels Airworthiness Directive AD/PA-28/24 as of 3 July 2008. The original directive required a one-time safety modification to the control wheel retaining pin on Piper PA-28 aeroplanes (a fix to prevent the steering yoke from coming loose).

Why it matters: Because the original modification was mandated back in 1969, the aviation safety authority assumes every affected plane has been fixed by now. This cancellation cleans up the rulebook so aircraft owners and mechanics don't need to track an obsolete requirement.
