Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

Operators of SD3‑30 aircraft must fit a Secretary‑approved physical restraint that secures the galley urn independently of the compartment door and withstands normal flight and emergency alighting loads. Compliance is required before certificate issue/renewal or within two months for in‑service aircraft. The rule shifts design, approval and installation costs to operators and aims to reduce the hazard from an unsecured urn.

AD/SD3-30/1 Galley Urn Restraint - Modification 5/81

Applicability: All models.

Requirement: Install, to a scheme approved by the Secretary, a restraint system to secure the galley urn against flight and emergency alighting loads, independent of the urn compartment door.

Compliance: Before initial issue or renewal of Australian Certificate of Airworthiness or within 2 months time in service after 30 April 1981 for aircraft already in service.

Background: During a First of Type Inspection it was noted that the urn was restrained only by the compartment door and this could present a hazard to the cabin attendant and passengers during an emergency landing.
