provided by the Authority.

           Compliance:  Within 25 hours' time in service after 22 June 1995 or prior to flight into actual or forecast icing conditions, whichever occurs first.

           Background:  This Directive has been issued to mandate requirements necessary to reduce the possibility of an engine flameout which may result from operating certain aircraft in icing conditions.

           This amendment re-formats the original requirement for inspection of the engines to determine engine ignition unit and anti-ice shield status and for installation of a placard on the instrument panel for aircraft not incorporating extended cycle ignition units and modified anti-ice shields on both engines. The amendment also introduces a flight manual amendment that specifies the ignition system duty cycles and a requirement to revise engine maintenance programs to ensure the requirements of this Directive are carried out at each engine or ignition unit replacement.
