This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Fokker Model F28 Mark 0100 series airplanes, that requires installation of additional ``EXIT'' signs at the overwing emergency exits. This amendment is prompted by a report indicating that the ``EXIT'' signs for the overwing emergency exits, as currently installed, would not be visible to passengers during an emergency evacuation when the emergency exit doors are open. The actions specified by this AD are intended to ensure the ``EXIT'' signs for overwing emergency exits are clearly visible during an evacuation.
