## Abstract

This amendment supersedes an existing airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain British Aerospace Model BAe 146-100A, - 200A, and -300A series airplanes, that currently requires either a one- time non-destructive test (NDT) inspection or a detailed visual inspection for cracking of the fuselage skin in the vicinity of frame 29 between stringers 12 and 13, and repair, if necessary. This amendment requires that the current thresholds for these inspections be reduced and that repetitive inspections be performed. This amendment is prompted by issuance of mandatory continuing airworthiness information by a foreign civil airworthiness authority. The actions specified by this AD are intended to detect and correct fatigue cracking of the fuselage skin in the specified area, which could result in reduced structural integrity of the airplane.
