Which aircraft AD 82-04-02 applies to

ModelsC-9, DC-9
Part-conditional3616012, 3953505.

Inspect magnesium rudder pedal arm assemblies (P/N 3616012) for cracks at intervals not to exceed one year; if cracks are found, replace with new aluminum rudder pedal arm assemblies (P/N 3953505), which constitutes terminating action for the AD.

Whether AD 82-04-02 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 complianceThe specific action taken (inspected, replaced, modified) and to what revision.
DateWhen the work was done.
Aircraft timeTotal time in service / tach at compliance — how recurring next-due is computed.
Signature & certificateThe A&P/IA who returned it to service, with certificate number.
Is AD 82-04-02 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.
