What is an Airworthiness Directive?

An Airworthiness Directive is a legally enforceable FAA regulation issued to correct an unsafe condition found in an aircraft, engine, propeller, or component.

How do I know if an AD applies to my aircraft?

Applicability depends on the aircraft model, engine, propeller, installed equipment, and serial number ranges. A detailed records review is typically required.

What happens if an Airworthiness Directive is not complied with?

Failure to comply with an applicable AD may render the aircraft unairworthy and legally unable to operate until compliance requirements are completed.

Are all Airworthiness Directives recurring?

No. Some directives require a one-time inspection or modification, while others require recurring inspections at specified intervals.
