Summary
We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for ZLIN AIRCRAFT a.s. Model Z-242L airplanes that would supersede AD 2003- 11-12. 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 need to incorporate new revisions into the Limitations section, Chapter 9, of the FAA-approved maintenance program (e.g., maintenance manual) to impose new or more restrictive life limits on critical components. We are issuing this proposed AD to require actions to address the unsafe condition on these products.
