Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

What this is: A mandatory safety instruction (called an Airworthiness Directive) issued by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority.

What it requires: Aircraft operators must permanently remove from service (retire) specific Dunlop brand pneumatic equipment — namely dehydrators part number ACM 18952 and oil/water traps part number ACM 18048. These parts manage moisture and contaminants in compressed air systems (pneumatic systems).

Who it affects: Anyone operating aircraft fitted with these specific Dunlop parts.

The deadline: Operators had to remove these parts before any further flight after 31 July 1970.

Why it matters: This prevents potential failures in aircraft pneumatic systems by removing specific components that were deemed unsafe or obsolete.
