What it does This Airworthiness Directive (a legally binding safety order issued by the aviation regulator) requires owners and operators of specific Piper Aerostar aircraft to replace a placard — an instructional or warning label — located on the main landing gear clamshell door.

Who it affects Anyone operating Piper Aerostar models 600, 601, and 601P with serial numbers (called "Sequence Nos.") prior to 0506.

What must be done The placard on the main landing gear clamshell door must be replaced following the instructions in Piper Aerostar Service Letter No. SL600-57.

Compliance deadline The work had to be completed within 100 hours of flight time after 31 December 1978, unless already accomplished.

Why it matters This ensures critical safety information or warnings about the landing gear remain visible and legible to pilots and maintenance crews, preventing potential operational errors.
