Is AD 95-7113 a recurring Airworthiness Directive?

Yes — AD 95-7113 requires a repetitive inspection. Next-due depends on the aircraft's time in service.

Which aircraft does AD 95-7113 apply to?

AD 95-7113 applies to Fairchild — models SA226, SA227. Serial/part conditions may narrow it to specific aircraft.

What this AD requires

This amendment revises Airworthiness Directive (AD) 93-15-02, which requires the following on Fairchild Aircraft SA226 and SA227 series airplanes that are equipped with a certain Simmonds-Precision pitch trim actuator: repetitively measuring the freeplay of the pitch trim actuator and repetitively inspecting the actuator for rod slippage; immediately replacing any actuator if certain freeplay limitations are not met or rod slippage is evident; and eventually replacing the actuator regardless of the inspection results. This action maintains these requirements, but reduces the hours time-in- service (TIS) before the initial inspection is required, and shortens both the time period between repetitive inspections and the actuator replacement compliance time (unless the replacement actuator is new or if the nut tube assemblies have been replaced during overhaul). An in- flight incident where the referenced actuator on one of the affected airplanes failed after accomplishment of the 5,000-hour initial inspection (with satisfactory results) prompted this action. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent the horizontal stabilizer from going nose-down or jamming because of pitch trim actuator failure, which could result in loss of control of the airplane.

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

Whether AD 95-7113 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 95-7113 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.
