Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This Airworthiness Directive requires owners/operators and maintenance providers of Revmaster R2100 piston engines to fit locating dowels to both halves of the No. 1 (rear) main bearing. The modification must be completed at the next crankcase disassembly if not already done.

It replaces a cancelled AD administratively; the one‑off mechanical change imposes parts and labour costs on the owner/operator but can be scheduled with routine maintenance rather than forcing immediate grounding.
