Full official abstract

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to all Avions Pierre Robin Model R2160 airplanes. This AD requires repetitively inspecting the vertical stabilizer spar in the area of the lower fitting of the rudder for cracks, loose rivets, or spar web distortion; and modifying the vertical stabilizer spar either immediately or at a certain time period depending on whether discrepancies are found during the inspections. This AD is the result of mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for France. The actions specified by this AD are intended to detect defects (cracks, loose rivets, or spar web distortion) in the vertical stabilizer spar, which could result in structural failure of the vertical stabilizer with possible reduced or loss of control of the airplane.
