Applicability: All aircraft equipped with Garrett AirResearch aircraft starters that are installed in, but not limited to, Boeing Models 707, 727, and 737 airplanes and McDonnell Douglas Models DC-8, DC-9, and DC-10 airplanes, certificated in any category.

The request shall be forwarded through an appropriate FAA Maintenance Inspector, who may add comments and then send it to the Manager, Atlanta Aircraft Certification Office.
