## Abstract

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain SOCATA-Groupe AEROSPATIALE (Socata) Models TB10 and TB200 airplanes. This AD requires inspecting the wing rear attachment fittings for cracks, replacing any cracked fitting, and incorporating wing rear attachment fitting reinforcement kits. This AD is the result of mandatory continued airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for France. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent structural failure of the wing rear attachment fittings caused by cracks in this area, which could result in the wing separating from the airplane if the airplane is operated with cracked wing rear attachment fittings over an extended period of time.
