What this AD requires

The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as:
Which aircraft AD 2010-02-06 applies to
Applies to Sicma Aero Seat 90xx and 92xx series passenger seats with part numbers listed in Annex 1, dated July 17, 2002, of Sicma Aero Seat Service Bulletin 92-25-005, Issue 3, dated January 17, 2003. These seats are installed on, but not limited to, ATR42-200/-300/-320/-500 and ATR72-101/-201/-102/-202/-211/-212/-212A airplanes; applies to the seats regardless of airplane modification/alteration/repair unless that work affects the AD's requirements (AMOC required in that case).
Whether AD 2010-02-06 actually applies to your aircraft (by serial and installed parts) and whether it’s already complied with comes from that aircraft’s records.
