Airworthiness Directives; Cessna Aircraft Company Model 172R Airplanes

What this AD requires

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain Cessna Aircraft Company Model 172R airplanes. This AD requires modifying the lower forward doorpost bulkhead by installing rivets. This AD is the result of a report from the manufacturer that these rivets were erroneously omitted during manufacture of some of the new production airplanes. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent reduced structural rigidity at the forward doorpost bulkhead, which could result in structural cracking and possible loss of control of the airplane.

Which aircraft AD 98-14-07 applies to

MakesCessna

Requires modifying the lower forward doorpost bulkhead by installing specified rivets per Cessna SB No. SB97-53-02, dated Sept 15, 1997, to prevent reduced structural rigidity/cracking. Specific Cessna model designation not present in this excerpt.

Whether AD 98-14-07 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.

Is AD 98-14-07 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.
