The request should include an assessment of the effect of the modification, alteration, or repair on the unsafe condition addressed by this AD; and, if the unsafe condition has not been eliminated, the request should include specific proposed actions to address it.
Compliance
Required within the next 25 hours time-in-service (TIS) after the effective date of this AD, unless already accomplished. To prevent dangerous levels of carbon monoxide from entering the airplane cabin during takeoff, climb, and descent operations caused by the present flight cabin sealing design of the affected airplanes, which could result in passenger injury, accomplish the following: (a) Accomplish one of the following actions: (1) Fabricate a placard that incorporates the following words (using at least \1/8\-inch letters), and install this placard on the instrument panel within the pilot's clear view: ``AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM TO BE UTILIZED DURING CRUISE OPERATION ONLY'' Instead of fabricating the placard, it may be obtained from the Mooney Aircraft Corporation at the address specified in paragraph (e) of this AD, and is referenced in Mooney Service Bulletin M20- 270, Issued Date: March 1, 1999; or (2) De-activate the air conditioning system. (b) Accomplishing the placard requirements of paragraph (a)(1) of this AD may be performed by the owner/operator holding at least a private pilot certificate as authorized by section 43.7 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR 43.7), and must be entered into the aircraft records showing compliance with this AD in accordance with section 43.9 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR 43.9). (c) Special flight permits may be issued in accordance with Secs. 21.197 and 21.199 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR 21.197 [[Page 27913]] and 21.199) to operate the airplane to a location where the requirements of this AD can be accomplished. Use of the air conditioning system is prohibited during any such flight. (d) An alternative method of compliance or adjustment of the compliance time that provides an equivalent level of safety may be approved by the Manager, FAA, Airplane Certification Office (ACO), 2601 Meacham Boulevard, Fort Worth, Texas 76193-0150. The request shall be forwarded through an appropriate FAA Maintenance Inspector, who may add comments and then send it to the Manager, Fort Worth ACO. Note 2: Information concerning the existence of approved alternative methods of compliance with this AD, if any, may be obtained from the Fort Worth ACO (ASW-150). (e) Mooney Aircraft Corporation Service Bulletin M20-270, Issue Date: March 1, 1999, may be obtained from the Mooney Aircraft Corporation, Louis Schreiner Field, Kerrville, Texas 78028.
