Is AD 02-19874 a recurring Airworthiness Directive?

No — AD 02-19874 is a one-time directive. Verify it was complied with in the aircraft's records.

Which aircraft does AD 02-19874 apply to?

AD 02-19874 applies to Univair — models 415-C, 415-CD, 415-D, 415-E, 415-G, F-1, F-1A. Serial/part conditions may narrow it to specific aircraft.

Airworthiness Directives; Univair Aircraft Corporation Models (ERCO) 415-C, (ERCO) 415-CD, (ERCO) 415-D, (ERCO) 415-E, (ERCO) 415-G, (Forney) F-1, and (Forney) F-1A Airplanes

What this AD requires

This amendment supersedes two different airworthiness directives that require you to inspect the fuel line nipple for damage, replace any suspect part, and replace the elbow fitting on certain Univair Aircraft Corporation (Univair) Models (ERCO) 415-C, (ERCO) 415- CD, (ERCO) 415-D, (ERCO) 415-E, (ERCO) 415-G, (Forney) F-1, and (Forney) F-1A airplanes. This AD requires you to accomplish the following on airplanes with the gascolator connected to the side of the carburetor: Replace any aluminum fuel line nipple or elbow fitting with a brass or steel fuel line nipple or elbow fitting, inspect for double support tubes on the gascolator, install these tubes if they do not exist, and inspect the fuel line fittings between the carburetor and gascolator for cracks or misalignment and replace as necessary. This AD will not affect those airplanes with the gascolator mounted on the firewall. This AD is a result of cracks in the subject area on airplanes in compliance with the current ADs. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent failure of the fuel line fittings or the gascolator because of the current airplane design configuration (aluminum fuel line nipples, aluminum fuel line elbows, and/or no double support tubes on the gascolator). Such failure could result in a lack of fuel to the engine with consequent loss of control of the airplane.

Whether AD 02-19874 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.

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.
