Is AD 2003-06-07 a recurring Airworthiness Directive?

Yes — AD 2003-06-07 requires a repetitive inspection every 50 hours. Next-due depends on the aircraft's time in service.

Which aircraft does AD 2003-06-07 apply to?

AD 2003-06-07 applies to Socata Groupe Aerospatiale. Serial/part conditions may narrow it to specific aircraft.

Airworthiness Directives; Socata-Groupe Aerospatiale Models MS 892A-150, MS 892E-150, MS 893A, MS 893E, MS 894A, MS 894E, Rallye 150T, and Rallye 150ST Airplanes

What this AD requires

This amendment supersedes Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2002- 05-04, which applies to certain Socata--Groupe Aerospatiale (Socata) Models MS 892A-150, MS 892E-150, MS 893A, MS 893E, MS 894A, MS 894E, Rallye 150T, and Rallye 150ST airplanes. AD 2002-05-04 requires you to repetitively inspect any engine mount assembly that is not part number 892-51-0-035-0 (or FAA-approved equivalent part number) for cracks; repair cracks that do not exceed a certain length; and replace the engine mount when the cracks exceed a certain length and cracks are found on an engine mount that already has been repaired twice. This AD is the result of the French airworthiness authority's determination that airplanes equipped with an engine mount assembly part number 892- 51-0-035-0 also display the unsafe condition. This AD retains the repetitive inspection and repair requirements of AD 2002-05-04, changes the applicability section, removes the terminating action, and requires replacement of all part number 892-51-0-035-0 engine mount assemblies. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent failure of the engine mount assembly. Such failure could result in loss of control of the airplane.

Repetitive inspection. Re-inspect every 50 hours. The next-due date/hours depend on this aircraft’s time in service — a records report computes it from the logbooks.

MakesSocata Groupe Aerospatiale

Specific model/serial applicability is in paragraph (a), not captured in the extracted text; action per Socata SB 156-71 (dated May 2001); supersedes AD 2002-05-04; also addressed in French ADs 2001-400(A) and 1978-205(A) R1.

Whether AD 2003-06-07 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.

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.
