(b) Within the next 100 hours time in service after the effective date of this amended AD, and at intervals not to exceed 100 hours time in service thereafter, inspect the Model LT1O574(B,K), LT1O574A(B,K), and LT1O574A(S)(B,K) blades in accordance with Paragraph c of Hartzell SB No. 140C, dated September 30, 1987.
