Table 1.--MLG Leg Assembly, Main Body, and Main Machined Body P/Ns and S/Ns MLG part name P/N S/Ns Leg assembly..................... 22730-000-02 U16 through U22 inclusive.

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Dornier Model 328-100 series airplanes, that requires replacement of the existing main landing gear (MLG) leg assembly with a modified assembly. This action is necessary to prevent fatigue damage of the MLG leg, which could result in collapse of the MLG. This action is intended to address the identified unsafe condition.
The aircraft, engines and makers this AD names, by the model designations in its text. A model listed here may still be outside the AD's serial ranges.
