Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This document officially scraps an old aircraft safety rule about seatbelt inspections.

What it does

Cancels Airworthiness Directive AD/RES/2, a 1965 rule that forced aircraft owners to check inertia reels (the seatbelt mechanisms that lock during sudden stops) every 12 months
The original rule was introduced because farming chemicals like superphosphate were getting into the reels and causing corrosion

Why it matters Pilots and maintenance engineers no longer need to follow this specific yearly inspection routine. It has been replaced by a newer, updated directive (AD/RES/5), so this cancellation simply tidies up the rulebook by removing the outdated requirement.
