## Abstract

This document publishes in the Federal Register an amendment adopting airworthiness directive (AD) 2000-15-51 that was sent previously to all known U.S. owners and operators of Cessna Model 560XL airplanes by individual notices. This AD requires, for certain airplanes, repetitive inspections to measure the amount the aileron fairlead tube protrudes beyond the clamp at the aft aileron sector, and modification of the aileron fairlead tubes, which terminates the repetitive inspections to measure the tube protrusion; and, for all airplanes, repetitive general visual inspections, and corrective actions, if necessary, to ensure that the fairlead tube remains flush with the clamp. This action is prompted by reports of two occurrences of improper aileron function discovered during preflight checks. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent interference between the aileron cable fairlead tube and the aileron cable sector, which could result in loss of control of the airplane.
