## Abstract

This amendment supersedes an existing airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to all CASA Model C-212 series airplanes, that currently requires replacement of the cover of the power control quadrant pedestal with a cover that incorporates slot protection. This amendment requires repetitive inspections for deterioration or damage of the slot protection installed in the cover of the power control quadrant pedestal. This amendment also requires eventual modification of the cover, which constitutes terminating action for the repetitive inspections. 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 prevent deterioration of the slot protection installed in the cover of the power control quadrant pedestal, which could allow foreign objects to jam or interfere with the power or trim control system and result in reduced controllability of the airplane.
