## The airworthiness directive

76-06-06 PIPER AIRCRAFT CORPORATION: Amendment 39-2547. Applies to Piper Model PA-12 airplanes certificated in all categories equipped with Piper Model PA-14 wing flaps in accordance with STC No. SA231AL.

Compliance is required within the next 50 hours' time in service after the effective date of this AD, unless already accomplished.
