Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

This AD requires operators of specified Swearingen/Fairchild turboprops to inspect the lower fuselage skin and aft belly fairing for chafing, following Swearingen Service Bulletin No. 53‑006 and FAA AD 81‑15‑01. Affected owners/operators must complete the inspection within 250 flight hours after 30 Sept 1981 if not already done. It matters because chafing can damage the fuselage; operators bear inspection and repair costs.
