            Background: During full scale fatigue tests, cracks were found in the outside skin of the forward fuselage section (AD/F50/46 was issued to cover this subject). The centre fuselage section frame-to-stringer connections are similar to those in the forward section, so, to improve the fatigue life of these connections, this Directive requires the installation of additional reinforcement angles.
