considered acceptable for compliance with this Directive.

            Note: FAA AD 2003-20-13 Amdt 39-13331 refers.

 Compliance: Before 27 November 2006.

            This Airworthiness Directive becomes effective on 25 December 2003.

            Background: This Directive requires either modification of the wiring to the windshield wiper motors in the flight compartment or replacement of those windshield wiper motor/converters with new motor/converters. This action is necessary to prevent a reduction in flight crew visibility due to stalled wiper motors during heavy precipitation and a period of substantial crew workload, which could result in damage to the aeroplane structure together with injury to flight crew or passengers during final approach for landing.
