Applicability: All CASA Model C-212 series airplanes, certificated in any category. Compliance: Required as indicated below, unless previously accomplished. To ensure continuing structural integrity of the wing flap control system, accomplish the following: A. Within six months after February 17, 1989 (the effective date of AD 89- 02-08, Amendment 39-6111), incorporate a revision into the FAA-approved maintenance inspection program that will provide for inspection of the wing flap control system in accordance with CASA Document COM. 212-206, Revision 1, dated May 20, 1988. The non-destructive inspection techniques set forth in the CASA C-212 non-destructive procedures (27-50-01 through 27-50-05) provide acceptable methods for accomplishing the inspections required by this AD. All inspection results, positive or negative, must be reported to CASA Product Support, in accordance with instructions in the CASA Flap Control System Inspection Document. This Supplemental Structural Inspection (SSI) is to be repeated at intervals not to exceed 4,000 landings. B. Prior to the accumulation of 4,000 landings, or within six months after the effective date of this amendment, whichever occurs later, inspect the wing flap control system in accordance with CASA Document COM. 212-206, Revision 1, dated May 20, 1988. C. Cracked structure or damaged components detected during the inspections required by paragraphs A. and B., above, must be replaced prior to further flight, in accordance with CASA Document COM. 212-206, Revision 1, dated May 20, 1988. D. An alternate means of compliance or adjustment of the compliance time, which provides an acceptable level of safety, may be used when approved by the Manager, Standardization Branch, ANM-113, FAA, Northwest Mountain Region. NOTE: The request should be forwarded through an FAA Principal Maintenance Inspector (PMI),who will either concur or comment and then send it to the Manager, Standardization Branch, ANM-113. E. Special flight permits may be issued in accordance with FAR 21.197 and 21.199 to operate airplanes to a base for the accomplishment of the requirements of this AD. All persons affected by this directive who have not already received the appropriate service documents from the manufacturer may obtain copies upon request to Construcciones Aeronauticas S.A. (CASA), Getafe, Madrid, Spain. These documents may be examined at the FAA, Northwest Mountain Region, Transport Airplane Directorate, 17900 Pacific Highway South, Seattle, Washington, or Standardization Branch, 9010 East Marginal Way South, Seattle, Washington.
