REGULATORY TEXT:   88-01-10 R1 SHORT BROTHERS: Amendment 39-5819 as amended by amendment 39-6011. Applies to Model SD3-60 series airplanes, Serial Numbers SH3601 through SH3667, certificated in any category.

Compliance required as indicated, unless previously accomplished.

To preclude failure of the horizontal stabilizer attach fittings, accomplish the following:

A. Within the next 3 months after the effective date of this AD, inspect the interference fit bushings in each of the four horizontal stabilizer attach fittings in accordance with Shorts Service Bulletin Number SD360-55-10, dated November 1985.

B. If the bushing is found to be loose in its fitting and the movement exceeds 0.005 inch, replace the fitting before further flight.

C. If the bushing is found to be loose in its fitting and the movement does not exceed 0.005 inch, replace the fitting within the next 60 days.

D. An alternate means of compliance or adjustment of the compliance time, which provides an acceptable level of safety, may be used when approved by the Manager, Standardization Branch, ANM-113, FAA, Northwest Mountain Region.

NOTE: The request should be forwarded through an FAA Principal Maintenance Inspector (PMI), who may add any comments and then send it to the Manager, Standardization Branch, ANM-113.

E. Special flight permits may be issued in accordance with FAR 21.197 and 21.199 to operate airplanes to a base for the accomplishment of the modifications required by this AD.

All persons affected by this directive who have not already received the appropriate service documents from the manufacturer may obtain copies upon request to Short Brothers, PLC, 2011 Crystal Drive, Suite 713, Arlington, Virginia 22202-3702. These documents may be examined at the FAA, Northwest Mountain Region, 17900 Pacific Highway South, Seattle, Washington, or at the Seattle Aircraft Certification Office, 9010 East Marginal Way South, Seattle, Washington.

This Amendment, 39-6011, amends AD 88-01-10, Amendment 39-5819.
