Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

What this does: This instrument cancels three specific Airworthiness Directives (mandatory safety notices for aircraft) that previously applied to particular Airbus and Bombardier aircraft models.

Who it affects: Airlines, aircraft operators, and maintenance engineers responsible for:

Airbus A320 (specific directive revoked on 28 April 2010)
Bombardier Dash-8 (DHC-8) (specific directive revoked on 20 April 2010)
Airbus A330 (specific directive revoked on 29 April 2010)

Why it matters: Airworthiness Directives are compulsory safety rules issued by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority. Revoking them means those specific maintenance requirements, inspection rules, or equipment mandates no longer apply. This typically happens when the safety issue has been resolved, the affected components are no longer in service, or newer safety rules have replaced the old ones. Operators must still comply with all other applicable airworthiness requirements.
