Airworthiness Directives; Ayres Corporation S2R Series Airplanes

What this AD requires

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to all Ayres Corporation (Ayres) S2R series airplanes that are equipped with at least one main landing gear fuselage attach bolt with a grease fitting installed through the shank. This AD requires replacing the main landing gear fuselage attach bolts that are drilled with a grease fitting with undrilled (no grease access) attach bolts. This AD is the result of a report of cracks found in all four main landing gear fuselage attach bolts on one of the affected airplanes. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent collapse of the main landing gear caused by cracked main landing gear fuselage attach bolts, which could result in main landing gear collapse with possible wing fuel tank rupture and consequent fire.

Whether AD 00-6162 actually applies to your aircraft (by serial and installed parts) and whether it’s already complied with comes from that aircraft’s records.

How AD compliance is recorded

A valid compliance record (14 CFR 43.9) states:

Method of compliance — The specific action taken (inspected, replaced, modified) and to what revision.

Date — When the work was done.

Aircraft time — Total time in service / tach at compliance — how recurring next-due is computed.

Signature & certificate — The A&P/IA who returned it to service, with certificate number.

Is AD 00-6162 complied with on your aircraft?

Tailplate reads a tail number’s logbooks and matches every applicable AD — including this one — to its compliance evidence, with recurring next-due dates computed.

Applicability is derived from the FAA directive corpus and is advisory, not a legal airworthiness determination. Compliance is established only from an aircraft’s actual records.
