The AD requires that the action set out in the requirement section (being action that the delegate considers necessary to correct the unsafe condition) be taken in relation to the aircraft or aeronautical product mentioned in the applicability section: (a) in the circumstances mentioned in the requirement section; and (b) in accordance with the instructions set out in the requirement section; and (c) at the time mentioned in the compliance section.

British Aerospace BAe 3100 (Jetstream) Series Aeroplanes
AD/JETSTREAM/103  External Baggage Pod Restraint Net  2/2007

Applicability:  All Model 3100 Series aircraft.
Requirement:       1. Establish whether a 31-5179-1 baggage pod is fitted to the aircraft, or is held in storage.

                   2. Modify affected pods in accordance with BAe Systems Service Bulletin 25-JK12199 Rev 0, or later EASA approved revision; or remove from service until modified.

                Note:  EASA AD 2006-0341 refers.
Compliance:        1. From the effective date of this Directive, unless already accomplished.

                   2. Before 31 July 2007.
                This Airworthiness Directive becomes effective on 15 February 2007.
Background:     An earlier design standard of the baggage pod is not equipped with a restraint net.  If the baggage pod door inadvertently opens during flight, the possibility exists that baggage pod contents may fall out and injure persons or damage property.
