### CANCELLED : Nacelles- Inne r Panels- Inspection Piaggio Aero Industries S.p.A. (PAl) . P . 180 Avant i and Avanti II aeroplanes , all serial numbers. During scheduled maintenance , the inner protecti ve film of th e composite nacelles panels was found partially detached on some Piag g io P .180 ae rop l anes. In 1998 , PA l i ssued Service Bulletin (SB) 80- 0101 , to provid e i nstructions to inspect the nacelle inner panels for loose film parts , and de p end i ng on fi ndings , to cu t them away. The i nstructions of SB 80-0101 w ere considered to be applicable to all aeroplanes, even newly manufactured , since the detachment was expected to occur after accumulation of some flight time after manufacturing. As th i s conditi on was cons i dered to be a potent i ally unsafe cond ition , Registro Aeronauti co Ita li ano ( RA I), the predecessor of Ente Nazi onale pe r I ' Avi azi one C i vile (ENAC) , issued Prescrizione di Aeronav ig a bilita (PA ) No. 98-208, which required the inspections and corrective actions as specified in PAl SB 80-0101. Since 2000 , all P . 180 aeroplane nacelles have been manufactured by a different supp li er, and no new occurrences of fil m detachme n t have been reported on earlier manufactured aeroplanes. Consequentl y , nacelle inner panel protect ive fi lm detachment i s no longer considered as p robable. Prompted by this determination, PAl iss ued Revision ZZ of SB 80 - 0101,
