Full official abstract

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain Jetstream Aircraft Limited (JAL) Jetstream Model 3201 airplanes. This action requires repetitively inspecting the spigot housing plate for cracks and corrosion at the wing/fuselage forward attachment sliding joint, replacing any cracked or corroded part, and eventually replacing the spigots and spigot housing plate with new parts of improved design. A crack in the spigot housing plate assembly found during fatigue testing of the affected airplanes prompted this action. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent structural failure of the wing/fuselage area caused by a cracked or corroded spigot housing assembly.
