ATR-GIE Avions de Transport Régional Airplanes: Airworthiness Directive Supersession

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2015-23-12, which applied to ATR42 and ATR72 airplanes, to address a new occurrence of a cracked main landing gear (MLG) rear hinge pin, requiring the replacement of additional MLG hinge pins and reducing compliance times.
