MANUFACTURER: Cessna Aircraft Company 150 and
152 Series Airplanes SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2009-10-09 R1
SUMMARY: We are
adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) to revise AD
2009-10-09, which applies to Cessna Aircraft Company (Cessna) 150
and 152 series airplanes. AD 2009-10-09 requires either installing
a placard prohibiting spins and other acrobatic maneuvers in the
airplane or replacing the rudder stop, the rudder stop bumper, and
the attachment hardware with a new rudder stop modification kit and
replacing the safety wire with jamnuts. Since we issued AD
2009-10-09, we became aware of a need to clarify certain model and
serial number designations, remove the duplicate requirement of
replacing the safety wire with jamnuts, and clarify the conditional
acceptability of using modification kit part number (P/N) SK152-25
as a terminating action to this AD. Consequently, this AD retains
the actions currently required in AD 2009-10-09, corrects model
designation for certain serial numbers, removes the duplicate
requirement of replacing safety wire with jamnuts, and clarifies
the conditional acceptability of using modification kit P/N
SK152-25 as a terminating action to this AD. We are issuing this AD
to prevent the rudder from traveling past the normal travel limit.
Operation in this non-certificated control position is unacceptable
and could cause undesirable consequences, such as contact between
the rudder and the elevator.
