 Compliance: As specified in the Requirement part of this Directive and the Requirement document.

           This amendment becomes effective on 18 July 2002.

           Background: Some critical structural components are prone to fatigue, and must be withdrawn from service before the risk of failure becomes too high.

           Amendment 6 reflected Change 2 to the MPG.

           Amendment 7 reflected Change 5 to the MPG, and removed Requirement 2, following cancellation of Brazil AD 90-07-01R1 and inclusion of the requirement in the MPG.

           Amendment 8 reflected changes to the main landing gear piston tubes and an update to the requirement document.

           Amendment 9 is issued to reflect the latest revision of the requirement document, and to allow operators to take advantage of Embraer's implementation plan introducing the life limit on engine mounts.

           Amendment 8 of this Airworthiness Directive became effective on 29 November 2000.

           Amendment 7 of this Airworthiness Directive became effective on 6 March 1992.
