Requirement 2 of this Directive.

                Note:  EASA AD 2009-0023 refers.
Compliance:        1. Unless the initial check is already accomplished, before further flight after
                   9 April 2009.

                2. At intervals not to exceed 165 flight hours; until compliance with SB No. 62-007 original issue, or later EASA approved revision.
             This Amendment becomes effective on 9 April 2009.
Background:  This Emergency Airworthiness Directive was issued following the discovery of two cracks in the dome fairing attachment on the dome fairing support.  These fatigue cracks were due to the loss of tightening torque of the screws which secure this assembly.  These cracks, in time, can lead to the loss of the dome fairing in flight.

             Amendment 1 is issued in response to a new EASA AD, which introduces the latest revision of the Requirement document, and modification 0743718 (and associated SB No. 62-007) which constitutes terminating action for the repetitive checks required by this Directive.
