Airworthiness Directives; ATR-GIE Avions de Transport Régional Airplanes

The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2023-03- 09, which applied to certain ATR-GIE Avions de Transport R[eacute]gional Model ATR72-101, -102, -201, -202, -211, -212, and - 212A airplanes. AD 2023-03-09 required revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations. This AD was prompted a determination that new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations are necessary. This AD continues to require the actions in AD 2023-03- 09 and requires revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is incorporated by reference. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
