| Background: | This AD results from propeller system actuator yoke arms breaking during flight. The requirements of this AD are intended to prevent actuator yoke arms breaking during flight, which could cause high propeller vibration and contribute to reduced controllability of the aeroplane.This amendment corrects an error in the applicability section of the AD, where the actuator assembly was given the wrong P/N. |
| The original issue of the AD became effective on 3 August 2006. |
