Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This document cancels two specific aviation safety orders that previously required owners to perform certain repairs or inspections on particular aircraft models.

What is being cancelled:

AD/ATR 42/26 Amdt 1 — A safety directive for ATR 42 aircraft (twin-turboprop regional airliners), cancelled effective 26 April 2013.
AD/ECUREUIL/135 — A safety directive for Ecureuil helicopters (also known as AS350 Squirrels), cancelled effective 24 April 2013.

Why this matters: Airworthiness Directives (ADs) are legally binding orders that require aircraft owners or operators to fix unsafe conditions. When an AD is revoked, those specific repair or inspection requirements no longer apply—typically because the safety issue has been resolved through design changes, the affected parts are no longer in use, or newer directives have superseded the old ones.

This instrument takes effect on 24 April 2013 and was issued by a CASA (Civil Aviation Safety Authority) delegate under aviation safety regulations.
