The airworthiness directive

47-13-02 TAYLORCRAFT: (Was Service Note 1 of AD-696-3.) Applies to Models BC-65, BCS-65, BC12-65, BCS12-65, BC12-D, BCS12-D, BCS12-D1 Aircraft.

Inspection required each 25 hours of engine operation.

This inspection applies only to fuel hose bearing white dash lines and having end fittings marked "CAA, SNA (date)". Examine the two flexible fuel lines to determine whether the hose inner liner has collapsed or failed thus causing a restriction to the flow of fuel. Particular attention should be given to the hose close to the fittings on the fuel strainer. Defective hose appears soft or spongy when squeezed with the fingers. Any defective hose is to be replaced immediately.

(This information is contained, in part, in Taylorcraft Service Bulletin No. 60 dated June 14, 1946.)
