Airworthiness Directives; The New Piper Aircraft, Inc. Models PA- 28-140, PA-28-150, PA-28-160, and PA-28-180 Airplanes

Resumo

This amendment revises Airworthiness Directive (AD) 96-10-01, which currently requires a complete landing light support replacement on certain The New Piper Aircraft, Inc. (Piper) Models PA-28-140, PA-28-150, PA-28-160, and PA-28-180 airplanes. Some of the serial numbers for these airplanes were incorrectly referenced in the Applicability section of AD 96-10-01. This AD maintains the requirements of AD 96-10-01, and corrects the serial numbers referenced in the Applicability section. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent the landing light retainer support seal from being ingested by the updraft carburetor, which could result in rough engine operation or possible engine failure and loss of control of the airplane.
