             4.    Within 6 years time in service after last compliance in accordance with a previous issue of this Directive, and thereafter at intervals not to exceed 6 years time in service.

           Note: Approved repairs restoring the structure to original strength and incorporation of an approved corrosion prevention scheme extends the repeat inspection to a period no greater than 12 years.

           The compliance of the previous issue of this Directive was: repetitive inspection periods of 3 years for Requirements 1, 2, 3, and 4. This Amendment is effective
           from 25 June 1992.

           Background:  Amendment 6 reflected the outcome of the melding of operator and Authority requirements following submissions to, and investigation by, the Authority.
           Requirement l obviated the need to remove the wing from the aircraft. Requirement 2 reflected the necessity to still inspect but used a simpler procedure which recognised the aircraft's current usage. Requirements 3 and 4 provided for extended inspection periodicities at an awkward inspection area.

           Amendment 7 is issued as a result of a review of this Directive; following a fleetwide survey of AD inspection findings conducted by the Type Certificate Holder.
