Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This AD mandates a tail‑plane modification for all Pilatus PC‑6 aeroplanes S/N 1–580, to be carried out per Pilatus Service Bulletin No. 27A by 15 April 1966. Owners/operators must schedule, fund and complete the work.

By referencing the service bulletin, the directive makes the manufacturer’s technical instructions legally binding, creating a safety‑driven compliance, downtime and cost burden despite the AD itself not stating the technical steps or rationale.
