Compliance required as indicated. Because of the occurrence of cracks in the blade threaded shank on several propellers, accomplish the following: (a) Propellers with affected blades not having accumulated the maximum time listed in Table II-C of McCauley Service Bulletin No. 48-C dated July 6, 1964, before the effective date of this AD and which have not been previously inspected in accordance with AD 63-8-4 shall be equipped with new blades prior to the accumulation of 100 hours' time in service after the accumulation of the maximum time in service listed in Table II-C of McCauley Service Bulletin No. 48-C dated July 6, 1964. (b) Propellers with affected blades having accumulated a total time in service less than 1,000 hours when inspected in accordance with AD 63-8-4 and having accumulated less than 75 hours over the total service hours listed in Table III-C of McCauley Service Bulletin No. 48-C dated July 6, 1964, on the effective date of this AD shall be equipped with new blades prior to the accumulation of 100 hours' time in service over the total service hours listed in Table III-C. (c) Propellers with affected blades having accumulated a total time in service less than 1,000 hours when inspected in accordance with AD 63-08-04 and having accumulated more than 75 hours over the total service hours listed in Table III-C of McCauley Service Bulletin No. 48-C dated July 6, 1964, on the effective date of this AD shall be equipped with new blades within the next 25 hours' time in service. (d) Propellers with blades having accumulated a total time of less than 1,000 hours when inspected in accordance with AD 63-08-04 and which have not accumulated the maximum time in service listed in Table III-C of McCauley Service Bulletin No. 48-C dated July 6, 1964, on the effective date of this AD shall be equipped with new blades prior to the accumulation of 100 hours' time in service after the accumulation of the maximum time in service listed in Table III-C of McCauley Service Bulletin No. 48-C dated July 6, 1964.
