Full official abstract

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to all Piaggio Aero Industries S.p.A. Model P-180 airplanes. This AD requires you to inspect for proper clearance between the first outboard flap control rod and the bleed air duct for interference, replace worn or damaged parts or correct interference, and adjust clearance. This AD is the result of mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for Italy. The actions specified by this AD are intended to detect and correct interference or damage of the first outboard flap control rod and bleed air duct, which could result in failure of the flap control rod. Such failure could lead to loss of airplane control.
