Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This document cancels a previous aviation safety rule (Airworthiness Directive AD/PMC/52) that required maintenance checks for propeller blade erosion on certain aircraft.

What it does:

Revokes the old directive effective 27 October 2009
Tells aircraft operators and mechanics to stop following the old rules
Directs them to follow the replacement directive (AD/PMC/53) instead

Who it affects:

Owners and operators of aircraft with McCauley variable-pitch propellers (the type covered by the original AD)
Licensed aircraft maintenance engineers

Why it matters: The cancellation avoids confusion by removing an outdated safety requirement that has been replaced by updated standards. Compliance is now governed solely by the new directive (AD/PMC/53).
