Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

This Airworthiness Directive applies to Piper PA‑30s with S/N 853 and 902–1253 and requires, forthwith, rebalance of the stabilator per Piper Service Bulletin No. 229A and installation of a Vne placard showing 206 KIAS. The legal duty falls on registered owners/operators (who pay for parts, labour and inspections) while maintenance organisations perform the work. It mandates a mechanical fix plus an operational speed limit, relies on the manufacturer’s bulletin for technical detail, and leaves little scheduling flexibility.
