## Summary

This document proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) that would apply to certain SOCATA-Groupe AEROSPATIALE (Socata) Models TB10 and TB200 airplanes. The proposed AD would require inspecting the wing rear attachment fittings for cracks, replacing any cracked fitting, and incorporating wing rear attachment fitting reinforcement kits. The proposed AD is the result of mandatory continued airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for France. The actions specified by the proposed AD are intended to prevent structural failure of the wing rear attachment fittings caused by cracks in this area, which could result in a wing separating from the airplane with consequent loss of control of the airplane.
