Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This directive applies to Piper PA-30 and PA-39 Twin Comanche aircraft (all models). It requires owners or operators to install safety harnesses in the front seats of these planes to improve occupant protection. The installation must follow a design approved by the Secretary (the senior government official responsible for aviation at the time). This safety modification had to be completed before 1 September 1972.

Why it matters: This rule was introduced to prevent injuries by ensuring front-seat occupants in these specific twin-engine aircraft were properly secured with harnesses rather than basic lap belts.
