AD: Cessna Aircraft Company Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2012-02-02

PRODUCT: Certain Cessna Aircraft Company Models 172R and 172S airplanes.
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2012-02-02
ACTION: Final rule

SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding an existing airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Cessna Aircraft Company (Cessna) Models 172R and 172S airplanes. That AD currently requires you to inspect the fuel return line assembly for chafing; replace the fuel return line assembly if chafing is found; and inspect the clearance between the fuel return line assembly and both the right steering tube assembly and the airplane structure, adjusting as necessary.

Since that AD was issued, a field report was made of a fuel return line chafing incident on a Cessna Model 172 airplane with a serial number (S/N) that was not included in the AD. This AD retains the actions of the current AD and adds S/Ns to the Applicability section of the AD. Chafing of the fuel return line assembly could lead to fire. This new AD requires the actions of the current AD and adds S/Ns to the Applicability section of the AD.

DATES: This AD is effective March 13, 2012

FMI: AD
