Summary
This document proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) that would apply to certain Industrie Aeronautiche e Meccaniche Rinaldo Piaggio S.p.A. (Piaggio) Model P-180 airplanes. The proposed action would require modifying the low pitch stop switch support. The proposed AD is the result of mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for Italy. The actions specified by the proposed AD are intended to prevent low pitch stop switch support displacement, which if not corrected, could result in an improper cockpit indication that the propeller is in the Beta range and cause loss of control of the airplane.
