Abstract
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to all Dornier Model 328-100 series airplanes. This action requires repetitive visual inspections for signs of fuel leakage of the outer wing beginning with Rib 21 and continuing outward, and corrective action, if necessary. This amendment is prompted by issuance of mandatory continuing airworthiness information by a foreign civil airworthiness authority. The actions specified in this AD are intended to prevent fuel leakage on the outboard wing, which could result in a fuel explosion and fire.
