To ensure the integrity of the rudder trim/nose gear steering bungee, accomplish the following:

A) Prior to further flight, install a locally fabricated placard in clear view of the pilot, using letters at least 3/32 inch high, which reads:

"ELEVATOR MOVEMENT MAY BE LIMITED WHEN RIGHT RUDDER IS APPLIED. IF THIS
CONDITION IS ENCOUNTERED, CENTER THE RUDDER PEDALS, LAND AS SOON AS
PRACTICAL AND COMPLY WITH AD 81-14-06 PRIOR TO FURTHER FLIGHT."

B) The fabrication and installation of the required placard of this AD may be accomplished by the holder of a pilot certificate issued under Part 61 of the Federal Aviation Regulations on any airplane owned or operated by that person. That individual must make an entry in the airplane maintenance records showing compliance with paragraph A) of this AD.

C) On airplanes with over 150 hours time-in-service on the effective date of this AD, within the next 50 hours time-in-service, replace Part Number 2467003-1 rudder trim/nose gear steering bungee with Part Number 2467003-6 rudder trim/nose gear steering bungee.

D) On airplanes with less than 150 hours time-in-service on the effective date of this AD, replace Part Number 2467003-1 rudder trim/nose gear steering bungee with Part Number 2467003-6 rudder trim/nose gear steering bungee prior to the accumulation of 200 hours time-in- service.

E) Compliance with Paragraphs C) or D), as appropriate, allows removal of the placard installed in Paragraph A).

F) Record compliance with this AD by an appropriate entry in the airplane maintenance records. This should include those airplanes where the provisions of this AD have already been accomplished.

NOTE: Cessna Single Engine Service Letter SE80-99, Rev. 1, dated June 8, 1981, pertains to this subject.
