Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This cancels the Airworthiness Directive that required replacing rivets on the elevator outboard hinge brackets of Piper PA‑31 series aircraft per Piper Service Bulletin No. 595. The AD is obsolete because its compliance deadline (July 1978 or within 100 flight hours) long passed, so affected aircraft are expected to have already been modified. Owners are no longer required to follow this AD, though the work should be reflected in maintenance records.
