This document supersedes airworthiness directive (AD) 95-03-02, which currently requires repetitively inspecting (visually) the air filter frame for a loose or deteriorating gasket on airplanes incorporating certain Brackett air filter assemblies and replacing any gasket found loose or deteriorated. This action requires retaining the repetitive inspection as contained in AD 95-03-02, and will incorporate additional Brackett air filter assemblies to the "Applicability" section of that AD. Additionally, this AD will provide a terminating action for the repetitive inspection. The Federal Aviation Administration's determination that certain additional Bracket air filter assemblies should be inspected and replaced prompted this AD action. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent gasket particles from entering the carburetor because of air filter gasket failure, which could result in partial or complete loss of engine power and loss of control of the airplane.
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.
