Models named: P-3A or P3A, P3A, P-3A. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.

Applicability*9

This AD applies to all Model P-3A or P3A airplanes originally manufactured by Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company for the military, as identified in paragraphs (c)(1) and (c)(2) of this AD, certificated in any category: (1) Aero Union Corporation Model P3A airplanes; and (2) USDA Forest Service Model P-3A airplanes.

Compliance

Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done.

Required actions

Within 12 months after the effective date of this AD, revise the maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, by incorporating airworthiness limitations specified in Avenger Aircraft and Services P3A Airworthiness Limitations Section—FAA TCDS A32NM & TCDS T00006LA, Forest and Wildlife Conservation Usage (Includes Aerial Dispensing of Liquids), AAS-ALS-07-001, Revision D, dated August 2, 2010.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by a determination that the existing maintenance or inspection program must be revised to address fatigue cracking of the airplane. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct fatigue cracking, which could result in reduced structural integrity of the airplane.

Affected ADs

None.
