Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

Owners/operators of specific Fairchild (Swearingen) SA227-TT/AT/AC aircraft must inspect and repair aileron control cables that can wear from rubbing against a pulley, per the manufacturer’s Service Bulletin, within 200 flight hours after 30 Sept 1986 or at the next B-check—whichever is sooner. The rule targets listed serial-numbered aircraft to prevent cable failure and loss of roll control. Amendment 1 only updates the technical manual reference.
