Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-9837 · Piper Aircraft Inc. Airplanes
Piper Aircraft Inc. Airplanes
This AD applies to Piper Aircraft Inc. PA-31, PA-31-325, PA-31-350, PA-31P, PA-31T.
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 document supersedes AD 75-26-18, which currently requires modifying the landing gear selector cable forward attachment pin assembly by installing a safety lock wire on certain The New Piper Aircraft Inc., (Piper) PA-31, PA-31P, and PA-31T series airplanes. The action will require the same action as AD 75-26-18. An incorrect designation of Piper Model PA-31 airplanes as Piper Model PA-31-310 airplanes in AD 75-26-18 prompted the proposed AD action. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent the landing gear selector cable forward attachment pin assembly from becoming separated from the powerpack control arm, which, if not corrected, could cause loss of landing gear retraction or extension.
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.
