Plain English Summary

What this is: An Airworthiness Directive (a mandatory safety order) requiring owners of specific Piper Cherokee aircraft to fix how the rear seat belts are attached.

Who it affects: Owners of particular Piper PA-28 models built in the early 1970s, specifically:

Cherokee 140 (serial numbers 28-7225001 to 28-7325674)
Cherokee 180 (serial numbers 28-7205001 to 28-7305601)
Cherokee 235 (serial numbers 28-7210001 to 28-7310176)
Arrow 200 (serial numbers 28R-7235001 to 28R-7335446)

What you must do: Modify the rear seat belt attachments according to Piper Service Bulletin No. 393 within 100 hours of flying time after 28 June 1974.

Why it matters: This ensures rear seat passengers are properly restrained during turbulence or accidents. The original factory attachments on these specific aircraft were found to be inadequate.
