AD/PA-34/35 - Fuselage Structure, LH Side Sta.108 - Inspection and Modification - CANCELLED

This document cancels a previous aviation safety rule affecting Piper PA-34 Seneca aircraft.

What it does:

• Removes the legal obligation for owners to inspect and modify the fuselage structure on the left-hand side at "station 108" (a specific location on the airframe).
• The original directive (from 1981) required this inspection to be performed once within 100 hours of flying time, following manufacturer guidelines (Piper Service Bulletin 711).

Who it affects:

• Owners and operators of Piper PA-34 (Seneca) series aeroplanes.

Why it matters:

• Effective 23 October 2008, the safety requirement is officially scrapped. This means operators no longer need to perform this specific inspection or modification, reducing maintenance requirements for these older aircraft.
