What this AD requires

We are superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2015-23-12, which applied to all ATR-GIE Avions de Transport R[eacute]gional Model ATR42 and ATR72 airplanes. AD 2015-23-12 required identifying the serial number and part number of the main landing gear (MLG) rear hinge pins, and replacing pins or the MLG if necessary. This AD retains the requirements of AD 2015-23-12, requires replacing certain additional MLG hinge pins, and reduces certain compliance times. This AD was prompted by a new occurrence of a cracked MLG rear hinge pin. We are issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

Whether AD 2017-17-10 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 2017-17-10 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.
