Airworthiness Directives; AvCraft Dornier Model 328-100 and -300 Airplanes

The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain AvCraft Dornier Model 328-100 and -300 airplanes. This AD requires operators to install colored identification strips on the pulley brackets, fairlead bracket assemblies, operational assemblies, and flight control cables. This AD is prompted by a report that the flight control systems do not have elements that are distinctively identified. We are issuing this AD to prevent the incorrect re-assembly of the flight control system during maintenance, which could result in reduced controllability of the airplane.
