Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This airworthiness directive requires owners/operators of Aerospatiale (Socata) TB.9 and TB.10 (Tobago) aeroplanes with serial numbers before 172 to inspect specified horizontal stabilizer rivets (initially within 25 hours TIS after 23 June 1981, then every 100 hours until replaced) and to replace those rivets in accordance with Rallye TB SB No. 8 GR.55‑07 within 300 hours TIS. CASA states the action responds to service reports that certain stabilizer rivets are prone to working loose; operators bear inspection, part and maintenance costs and must schedule recurring checks until replacement.
