## Summary

We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above. This proposed AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as:

A CAP10B aircraft experienced a reduced elevator deflection by about 13[deg] due to an incorrect routing of the Push To Talk (PTT) wire bundle and improperly secured connectors which impeded the complete and free movement of the control stick.

The proposed AD would require actions that are intended to address the unsafe condition described in the MCAI.
