over the last 6 months before 15 January 2009, inspect the shock absorber per the accomplishment instructions of SB F2000-366 or F2000EX-167, as applicable to aircraft model.

      If any damage is found, within the applicable time(s) or LDG limits specified in the relevant SB F2000-366 or F2000EX-167, repair the shock absorber per the accomplishment instructions of SB F2000-367 or F2000EX-185, as applicable to aircraft model.

      5. For MLG shock absorber with less than 1,900 LDG since new or since last overhaul at 15 January 2009, inspect the shock absorber per the accomplishment instructions of SB F2000-366 or F2000EX-167, as applicable to aircraft model.

      If any damage is found, within the applicable time(s) or LDG limits specified in the relevant SB F2000-366 or F2000EX-167, repair the shock absorber per the accomplishment instructions of SB F2000-367 or F2000EX-185, as applicable to aircraft model.

   Embodiment of SB F2000-367 or F2000EX-185 without previous implementation of SB F2000-366 or F2000EX-167, as applicable to aircraft model, is acceptable to comply with Requirements 2, 3, 4, and 5 of this AD.

      6. After accomplishment of Requirements 2, 3, 4 or 5 of this AD, and until further notice, repeat the shock absorber inspections and associated corrective actions per the accomplishment instructions of SB F2000-366 or F2000EX-167, as applicable to aircraft model.

      7. Install or modify the LH and RH shock absorbers with P/N suffix as listed in table 1, and embodying M3120.
