Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This is a safety directive (called an Airworthiness Directive) that applies specifically to Piper PA-32 Cherokee Six aircraft.

What it requires: Owners or operators of these planes must modify the air induction hose system (the piping that brings air into the engine) according to instructions in Piper Service Bulletin No. 360.

Who must comply: Anyone operating a Piper PA-32 series aircraft covered by the referenced service bulletin.

Deadline: The modification must be completed within 100 hours of flight time (counted from when the aircraft is in actual service, not just sitting on the ground) after 30 March 1973.

Why it matters: Airworthiness directives are legally binding safety requirements. This one addresses a specific mechanical defect or safety concern with the air induction system that could affect engine performance or safety. Failure to comply means the aircraft cannot be legally flown.
