The models as the FAA's AD index lists them. The serial ranges, installed parts and exceptions are in the AD itself: read it at the FAA.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to Aerospace Technologies of Australia (ASTA) Nomad Models N22B, N22S, and N24A airplanes. This action requires inspecting the flap and aileron control rod fork ends for water accumulation and corrosion inside the internally drilled holes, and replacing the control rod fork ends if there is visible corrosion, or sealing the hole if no corrosion is found. Reports of water entering the internal holes of the flap and aileron control rod fork ends, causing corrosion, prompted this AD action. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent corrosion and water accumulation in the flap and aileron control rod fork ends, which, if not detected and corrected, could cause loss of control of the flaps and aileron and possible loss of control of the airplane.
