Compliance
Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done.
Required actions
Except as specified in paragraphs (h) and (i) of this AD: Comply with all required actions and compliance times specified in, and in accordance with, European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD 2022-0189, dated September 19, 2022 (EASA AD 2022-0189).
Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by reports that nonconforming aluminum alloy was used to manufacture structural parts on the inboard flap. The FAA is issuing this AD to detect and correct structural parts of inboard flaps made of nonconforming aluminum alloy. The unsafe condition, if not addressed, could result in reduced structural integrity of the airplane.
Affected ADs
This AD replaces AD 2017-06-07, Amendment 39-18831 (82 FR 17107, April 10, 2017) (AD 2017-06-07).
