Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This airworthiness directive requires owners/operators of SIAI Marchetti Model 205 aircraft to have specific flap control arms (P/Ns 205‑6‑052‑1, ‑03, ‑101, ‑103) inspected for cracks within 100 hours TIS after 31 July 1977, using either a 10× magnifier or an approved dye‑penetrant technique. It’s aimed at detecting structural defects before in‑service failure, places inspection cost and scheduling on operators/maintenance providers, and cross‑references related RAI and SIAI Marchetti guidance for implementation.
