intent of the AD, which was to install the reinforcing doublers at both locations. Airworthiness inspectors have reported a number of aircraft in service in Australia which do not have the WS 94.25 modification and which, by virtue of the AD wording, are not receiving the detailed visual and radiographic inspection at either location. It has also been reported that some aircraft have doublers installed which do not appear to conform to the SB or SRD specifications.

               This issue makes it clear that both wing stations are critical and that modification and inspection at both locations is required, and that the modifications must accord with the specified data. Aircraft which are in full compliance with the intent of the previous issue as outlined above, including correct doubler installation and detailed visual and radiographic inspection at both locations WS 94.25 and WS 127.75, left and right sides, need no additional work as a result of this amendment. Ongoing inspection is of course still required.

               Amendment 3 of this directive became effective on 27 April 1995.
