the United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) as an Alternate Method of Compliance (AMOC) to FAA AD 2005-24-13, are considered acceptable for compliance with the equivalent Requirements of this Directive.
             Note 2:  FAA AD 2005-24-13 Amdt 39-14393 refers.
Compliance:  For Requirement 1 - Within 50 hours time in service after the effective date of this Directive.
             For Requirement 2 - Before further flight after completing the Requirement 1 inspection.
             For Requirement 3 - Concurrent with or prior to completing Requirement 1.
             This Airworthiness Directive becomes effective on 20 December 2005.
Background:  The FAA has received a report of a fire in the left-hand engine nacelle.  Investigation revealed that an electrical wire bundle for the engine alternator had chafed a hole in a hydraulic line.  This condition, if not corrected, could result in a fire in the engine nacelle.
             This Directive requires modification of the electrical wire bundle for the alternator on the left-hand engine, inspecting for clearance between wire harnesses and engine tubing for each engine together with any necessary corrective actions.  The Directive also requires, on some aeroplanes, the replacement of the fuses for the hydraulic shutoff valves with fuses having higher amperage.
