Saab Reopens Comment Period for Airworthiness Directive for SAAB-Fairchild SF340A and SAAB 340B Airplanes

Summary

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is reopening the comment period for a proposed airworthiness directive that would require repetitive ultrasonic inspections to detect cracking in certain Saab Model SAAB-Fairchild SF340A and SAAB 340B airplanes, and ultimately modify the main landing gear shock strut and axle adaptors.
