Applicability: Jetstream Model 3201 Airplanes (serial numbers 790 through 922), certificated in any category.

Compliance: Upon the accumulation of 6,000 landings, or within the next 1,000 landings after the effective date of this AD, whichever occurs later, unless already accomplished.

NOTE: If no record of landings is maintained, hours time-in-service (TIS) may be used with one hour TIS equal to two landings. For example, 100 hours TIS is equal to 200 landings.

To prevent fatigue failure of the wing structure, accomplish the following:

(a) Modify the 5/16 inch diameter bolt holes around the periphery of the three fuel tank access panels on the wing main spar webs between Wing Station (WS) 36 and WS 83 in accordance with the ACCOMPLISHMENT INSTRUCTIONS of BAe Service Bulletin 57-JM 8160, Revision 1, dated August 23, 1991.

(b) If the modification required by paragraph (a) of this AD has been accomplished in accordance with the original issue of BAe Service Bulletin 57-JM 8160, dated June 19, 1991, then no further action is required by this AD.

(c) Special flight permits may be issued in accordance with FAR 21.197 and 21.199 to operate the airplane to a location where the requirements of this AD can be accomplished.

(d) An alternative method of compliance or adjustment of the compliance time that provides an equivalent level of safety may be approved by the Manager, Brussels Aircraft Certification Office, Europe, Africa, Middle East office, FAA, c/o American Embassy, 1000 Brussels, Belgium. The request should be forwarded through an appropriate FAA Maintenance Inspector, who may add comments and then send it to the Manager, Brussels Aircraft Certification Office.

(e) The modification required by this AD shall be done in accordance with British Aerospace Service Bulletin 57-JM 8160, Revision 1, dated August 23, 1991, or British Aerospace Service Bulletin 57-JM 8160, dated June 19, 1991. This incorporation by reference was approved by the Director of the Federal Register in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 1 CFR Part 51.
