AD NUMBER: 2003-24-13

MANUFACTURER: Cessna (CORRECTION)
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2003-24-13
SUMMARY: The FAA adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Cessna Aircraft Company (Cessna) Models 172R, 172S, 182S, 182T, T182T, 206H, and T206H airplanes that are equipped with a Honeywell KAP 140 autopilot computer system installed on the center instrument controlpanel near the throttle. This AD requires you to install an update to the operating software of theKAP 140 autopilot computer system, change the unit's part number, and change the softwaremodification identification tag. This AD is the result of reports of inadvertent and undetected engagement of the autopilot system. We are issuing this AD to prevent unintentionally engagingthe KAP 140 autopilot computer system, which could cause the pilot to take inappropriate actions.
