           This amendment becomes effective on 8 August 2002.

           Background: The manufacturer reports that the baggage compartment fire extinguisher nozzle can be damaged, resulting in insufficient distribution of the fire-extinguishing agent in the event of a compartment fire.

           This amendment adds a requirement by the manufacturer to incorporate a modification not previously incorporated on certain serial number aircraft. Additionally both models of aircraft now have unique Service Bulletins to reflect the requirements.
