Saab Model SAAB SF340A and SAAB 340B Series Airplanes - Airworthiness Directive Amendment

The FAA has issued an airworthiness directive requiring Saab Model SAAB SF340A and SAAB 340B series airplanes to remove the control quadrant, secure power lever cam screws with Loctite, and reinstall the control quadrant to prevent engine power loss and reduced controllability. This directive was prompted by a foreign civil airworthiness authority's mandatory continuing airworthiness information.
