Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This Airworthiness Directive is a mandatory safety order issued by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority.

The problem: The rudder bar (the foot-operated steering control used to manoeuvre the aircraft on the ground) on Robin ATL aeroplanes can jam, potentially preventing pilots from controlling the aircraft's direction during taxi, takeoff, or landing.

Who must comply: Owners and operators of all Robin ATL model aircraft.

What must be done: Follow the instructions in Robin S.A. Service Bulletin No. 11 (the manufacturer's technical repair notice) to inspect or modify the rudder bar.

Deadline: Complete the required action within 50 hours of flying time after 1 November 1995.

Why this matters: A jammed rudder bar could cause loss of directional control, creating a serious safety risk during critical phases of flight.
