Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This cancels a long‑expired airworthiness directive that required installation of an improved anti‑rotation stop on the main landing‑gear downlock cable for Piper PA‑31 series airplanes.

Because the compliance deadline passed decades ago and affected airplanes would already have been modified, owners need take no action—this is administrative cleanup of obsolete regulation.
