To prevent possible loss of an aileron hinge pin, accomplish the following: a) Within the next 100 hours time in service, after the effective date of this AD, visually inspect each aileron hinge (6 total) for correct location of the cotter pin in accordance with Figure 1. of this AD or Cessna Service Information Letter SE83-18 dated July 29, 1983. 1. If the cotter pin holes are correctly located the airplane may be returned to service without further action. 2. If the cotter pin holes are incorrectly located, prior to further flight modify or replace aileron hinges in accordance with instructions in Figure 1. of this AD or Cessna Service Information Letter SE83-l8 dated July 29, 1983. b) Airplanes may be flown in accordance with FAR 21.197 to a base where this AD may be accomplished. c) An equivalent method of compliance with this AD may be used if approved by the Manager, Wichita Aircraft Certification Office, Federal Aviation Administration, Room 238, Terminal Building 2299, Wichita, Kansas 67209, telephone (316) 269-7000.
