Summary
This document corrects Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2003-08-51 for the specified MD Helicopters, Inc. helicopters that was published in the Federal Register on July 2, 2003 (68 FR 39449). The AD contains an incorrect part number (P/N). In all other respects, the original document remains the same.
The airworthiness directive
Accordingly, the publication on July 2, 2003 of the final rule (AD 2003-08-51), which was the subject of FR Doc. 03-16687, is corrected as follows:
On page 39451, in the second column, paragraph (c), the last part number, “500P3500-70,” in that paragraph is corrected to read “500P3500-701”.
Rule preamble
The FAA’s background, reasoning and cost estimate, published with the AD.

Effective July 17, 2003, to all persons except those persons to whom it was made immediately effective by Emergency AD 2003-08-51, issued on April 15, 2003, which contained the requirements of this amendment.

Supplementary informationPage 1
The FAA issued a final rule AD 2003-08-51, on June 3, 2003 (68 FR 39449, July 2, 2003). The following correction is needed:
The last P/N listed in paragraph (c) of the AD is incorrectly listed as 500P3500-70; the correct P/N is 500P3500-701. Therefore, the P/N needs correcting.
Since no other part of the regulatory information has been revised, the final rule is not being republished.
