Compliance is required as indicated, unless otherwise accomplished:

(a) For throttle cables with 3000 hours or more time in service, accomplish the following:

(1) Within the next 50 hours' time in service after the effective date of this AD, unless already accomplished within the past 1800 hours' time in service, perform an inspection and replace, as necessary, the throttle cables located at FS-245 (upper and lower) and at the engine horse collar in accordance with Lockheed Maintenance Manual SMP 515A, Work Card No. SP-77 dated 1/31/75.

(2) If as a result of an inspection required by this AD it is found that the throttle cables are not within the criteria of paragraph (a)(1), replace cable before further flight. Cable replacement may be made in accordance with Lockheed Maintenance Manual SMP 581, Chapter 76.

(3) Repeat the above inspection and cable replacement, as necessary, at each 1800 hours' time in service after the initial inspection. An alternate compliance time must be substantiated by the operator and recommended by the assigned FAA Principal Maintenance Inspector and approved by the Chief, Engineering and Manufacturing Branch, Southern Region.

(b) Lockheed Service Bulletin 382-76-4 provides for the installation of larger diameter pulleys and replacement of cables. If compliance with this Service Bulletin is shown or later FAA approved revision or an equivalent modification approved by the Chief, Engineering and Manufacturing Branch, Southern Region, the above inspections will no longer be required.

(c) Special flight permits may be issued in accordance with FAR's 21.197 and 21.199 to authorize operation of an airplane to a base for the accomplishment of the modifications required by this AD.
