Airworthiness Directives; Cessna Aircraft Company Models 150, 152, 170, 172, 175, 177, 180,
182, 185, 188, 190, 195, 206, 207, 210, T303, 336, and 337 Airplanes
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: We are superseding an existing airworthiness directive (AD) for Cessna Aircraft
Company (Cessna) 150, 152, 170, 172, 175, 177, 180, 182, 185, 188, 190, 195, 206, 207, 210, T303,
336, and 337 series airplanes. That AD currently requires repetitive inspections and replacement of
parts, if necessary, of the seat rail and seat rail holes; seat pin engagement; seat rollers, washers, and
axle bolts or bushings; wall thickness of roller housing and the tang; and lock pin springs. This new
AD requires retaining all of the actions from the previous AD and adding steps to the inspection
procedures in the previous AD. This AD was prompted by added steps to the inspection procedures,
added revised figures, and clarification of some of the existing steps. We are issuing this AD to
prevent seat slippage or the seat roller housing from departing the seat rail, which may consequently
cause the pilot/copilot to be unable to reach all the controls. This failure could lead to the pilot/copilot
losing control of the airplane.
DATES: This AD is effective June 17, 2011.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Discussion
We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR part 39 to supersede
airworthiness directive (AD) 87-20-03 R2, Amendment 39-6669 (55 FR 36264, September 5, 1990;
published as Docket No. 86-CE-71-AD, Amdt. 39-6669). That AD applies to the specified products.
AD 87-20-03 R2 requires repetitive inspections and replacement of parts, if necessary, of the seat rail
and seat rail holes; seat pin engagement; seat rollers, washers, and axle bolts or bushings; wall
thickness of roller housing and the tang; and lock pin springs. The NPRM published in the Federal
Register on November 8, 2010 (75 FR 68543). That NPRM proposed to retain all of the actions from
the previous AD and add steps to the inspection procedures in the previous AD.
The additional steps involve inspections of the tang thickness and length on the seat roller
housing. We also provided improved graphics for inspecting seat track hole wear and for inspecting
proper seat lock pin engagement depth. We itemized the steps, in sequence, to provide clearer
guidance for the inspector to do the inspections.
Comments
We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing this AD. The following presents
the comments received on the proposal and the FAA's response to each comment.
Request Change to Compliance Time
D.A., Ken Anderson, Don Barley, Timothy J. Berg, Joseph Carter, Gary W. Cleveland, Clifford
Coy, Al Dyer, John M. Efinger, Greg Felton, Berry Gablin, Howard Greenberg, Steve James, Richard
Koril, Michael Minton, Dustin J. Radford, Marc Stancy, Charles L. Trunck, and Walter Wasowski
requested we change the inspection compliance time to annual inspections. They think that 100-hour
time-in-service inspections are an excessive burden on manpower and an added expense with little
benefit in safety. They also think the frequent inspections would be difficult to monitor.
We disagree with this comment. The unsafe condition of excessive wear results from usage, not
calendar time. The more an airplane is used, the more likely wear will develop, causing an unsafe
condition. Parts cost will not be incurred unless the inspection results require parts replacement. FAA
regulations require posting compliance to ADs in the aircraft logbook. The maintainer should record
compliance with this AD, which includes the 100-hour inspections, in the aircraft logbook.
We have not changed this final rule AD action based on this comment.
Request Change to Applicability Based on Secondary Seat Stops
Joseph Carter, Greg Felton, Donald L. Griffith, and Richard M. Warner requested we change the
applicability based on the installation of inertial reel secondary seat stops. They think that if the
primary seat lock fails and the seat slips, the secondary seat stops provide additional safety.
We partially agree with this comment. We agree that the secondary seat stop provides additional
safety for seat slippage. However, we disagree that secondary seat stops provide adequate safety for
the unsafe condition associated with this AD action. The secondary seat stops may be installed only
on one side of the airplane, so the pilot could occupy a seat without a secondary seat stop. Also,
secondary seat stops will not prevent the seat from lifting off the seat track.
We have not changed this final rule AD action based on this comment.

Request To Remove Models 150, 152, and 188 From Applicability

Mark Stancy requested we remove Cessna Models 150, 152, and 188 from the airplane
Applicability. He thinks the seat travel for those models is too limited to justify this AD even if the
locking pin were to slip.
We disagree with this comment. Even a limited seat travel could affect short pilots' ability to
reach the controls if the seat slips backwards due to failure of the seat system. This AD action not
only requires inspections to prevent seat slippage but also requires inspections to prevent the seat
from lifting off the seat track.
We have not changed this final rule AD action based on this comment.
Request Withdrawal of Proposed AD Action
David Abler, Brian A. Andrus, James Barbee, Timothy J. Berg, Al Dyer, John M. Efinger, Berry
Gamblin, Donald L. Giffith, Michael Minton, Robert J. Pasch, Dustin J. Radford, Charles L. Trunck,
and Walter Wasowski requested we withdraw the proposed AD action because they think it adds no
additional safety than AD 87-20-03 R2.
We disagree with this comment. This AD action provides additional measurements in the
inspections, more clarity in the descriptions of the required inspections, and provides improved
graphics. Inadvertent seat movement continues to be reported. Also, we received a report of a seat
separating from the seat track due to wear of the seat roller housing tangs.
We have not changed this final rule AD action based on this comment.
Request Additional Inspection With Diagrams
One commenter requested we add an inspection of the seat stop with diagrams showing potential
damage because if the integrity of the seat stop is retained, seat slippage will not occur. The
commenter also requested we not allow repair to the seat roller housing.
We partially agree with this comment. We agree the seat stop should prevent seat slippage;
however, other failure modes can cause seat slippage even with a functional seat stop. Providing
diagrams of possible damage to the seat stop area will not sufficiently eliminate the safety issue.
Service history has shown that wear and damage to the seat installation components must be
addressed. This AD action provides clarification to the inspections for those components.
We have not changed this final rule AD action based on this comment.
Request an Additional Measurement to the Inspection
Dave McFarlane requested we add a maximum allowable incremental 0.07-inch radius
dimension to figure 1 at the outside diameter dimensions for clarification.
We disagree with this comment. The measurement dimensions in figure 1 adequately address the
measurements necessary for this AD. Additional measurements will not provide any additional
benefit.
We have not changed this final rule AD action based on this comment.
Request Changing Compliance Based on Frequency of Seat Movement
Joseph Carter requested we change the compliance time for the inspection for seats that are
moved infrequently because they would not experience the same amount of wear on the seat
components.
We disagree with this comment. Inspectors would not be able to determine the frequency seat
movement.
We have not changed this final rule AD action based on this comment.
3

Request Change to the Measurement of the Tangs

Brian A. Andrus, Jim Currie, and Jerry Unruh requested we change the tang measurement to the
outside of the seat roller housing and change the description of the tang measurement. This change
would make it easier for the inspector to take the measurement and to better understand what is being
measured.
We agree with this comment. We agree that measuring the tang length inside of the roller
housing is difficult because of the presence of the rollers inside of the roller housing.
We have changed the callouts in figure 4 to measure the tang length from outside of the roller
housing instead of from inside of the roller housing. We have also changed the description of the tang
measurement in figure 4 to more accurately describe the measurement.
Request Detailed Description of Changes From AD 87-20-03 R2
Robert J. Pasch requested we better describe the changes or added steps to the inspections from
AD 87-20-03 R2 so the owner/operator can better understand the requirements of this new AD
action.
We agree with this comment. We retained all of the actions from the previous AD and added
steps to the inspection. This AD action must be complied with in its entirety, not just the added steps.
This AD action includes better descriptions and graphics for the mechanic to follow when complying
with this AD. We have added language to the Discussion section describing in more detail the
changes we made in this superseding AD action.
Request Different Requirements for New Seat Rail Installations
Howard Greenberg requested different requirements for new seat rail installations.
We disagree with this comment. Documentation positively identifying that all seat assemblies
and associated parts were replaced would be difficult to obtain. If documentation positively
identifying replacement of the seat assemblies and associated parts can be found, the FAA will
consider any applications we receive for an alternative method of compliance to extend the
compliance time for the initial inspection.
We have not changed this final rule AD action based on this comments.
Request Training on Proper Seat Operation Instead of AD
David Abler, Ken Anderson, and Timothy J. Berg requested we provide a means to educate the
pilots on proper operation of the seats rather than take AD action.
We disagree with this comment. Wear and damage can occur, which may not be visibly
recognizable by the pilot, and may cause the seat to slip even after proper engagement of the locking
pin. In addition, many sources exist to educate those involved about this unsafe condition, including
Advisory Circular 43-16A, Aviation Maintenance Alerts, found on the Internet at
http://rgl.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library/rgAdvisoryCircular.nsf/Frameset?OpenPage;
Special Aviation Information Bulletin, SAIB CE-09-10, Availability of Secondary Seat Stops for
Pilot and Copilot Seats found on the Internet at http://rgl.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library/
rgSAIB.nsf/Frameset?OpenPage; Safety Alerts for Operators, SAFO 10016, Missing or Improper
Seat Stops in Cessna Models found on the Internet at http://www.faa.gov/other_visit/aviation_
industry/airline_operators/airline_safety/safo/all_safos/; and other related articles in Cessna Pilots
Association Magazine. In spite of the sources of information regarding the necessity for proper
maintenance and proper operations of the seats, inadvertent seat movement continues to be a safety
issue.
We have not changed this final rule AD action based on this comment.

Request Requiring Reinspection After Repair or Replacement of Parts

An anonymous commenter requested we require verifying the seat stop pin engagement still
meets the 0.150 inch criteria after replacement of parts as a result of any of the required inspections.
We disagree with this comment. The intent of this inspection is to detect wear or deformation.
Any part used as a replacement part must be serviceable and not show signs of wear or deformation.
Also, this inspection is a repetitive inspection at intervals not to exceed every 100 hours time-inservice.
We have not changed the final rule AD action based on this comment.
Agreement With AD Action
John M. Conti agrees with this AD action. He states the added procedures and criteria are good
and must be done during annual inspections so the extra detail is a small price to pay that will further
reduce this risk.
We have not changed this final rule AD action based on this comment.
Conclusion
We reviewed the relevant data, considered the comments received, and determined that air safety
and the public interest require adopting the AD with the change described previously to change the
tang length measurement location to outside of the seat roller housing and minor editorial changes.
We have determined that these minor changes:
Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the NPRM for correcting the unsafe
condition; and
Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was already proposed in the NPRM.
We also determined that these changes will not increase the economic burden on any operator or
increase the scope of the AD.
Costs of Compliance
We estimate that this AD will affect 36,000 airplanes in the U.S. registry.
The estimated total cost on U.S. operators includes the cumulative costs associated with AD 8720-03 R2. The required actions of this AD are the same as in AD 87-20-03 R2 with the exception of
some added steps to the inspection, which do not increase work-hours. The increased estimated cost
of this AD is due to increased labor cost and parts cost from 1987 when AD 87-20-03 R2 was issued.
We estimate the following costs to comply with this AD:

Authority for This Rulemaking

Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to issue rules on aviation safety.
Subtitle I, section 106, describes the authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation
Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's authority.
We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in subtitle VII, part A, subpart III,
section 44701, ''General requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing regulations for practices,
methods, and procedures the Administrator finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This
regulation is within the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition that is likely
to exist or develop on products identified in this rulemaking action.
Regulatory Findings
We have determined that this AD will not have federalism implications under Executive Order
13132. This AD will not have a substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship between the
national government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the
various levels of government.
For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this AD:
(1) Is not a ''significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866,
(2) Is not a ''significant rule'' under DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034,
February 26, 1979),
(3) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
(4) Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or negative, on a substantial number of
small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39
Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Safety.
Adoption of the Amendment
Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the Administrator, the FAA amends 14 CFR
part 39 as follows:

Subject
(d) Joint Aircraft System Component (JASC)/Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code
51; Standard Practices Structures.
Unsafe Condition
(e) This AD was prompted by reports of seats slipping on the rails where the primary latch pin
for the pilot/copilot seat is not properly engaged in the seat rail/track and reports of the seat roller
housing departing the seat rail. We are issuing this AD to prevent seat slippage or the seat roller
housing from departing the seat rail, which may consequently cause the pilot/copilot to be unable to
reach all the controls. This failure could lead to the pilot/copilot losing control of the airplane.
Compliance
(f) Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done.
Actions
(g) For all airplanes, to address the unsafe condition described in paragraph (e) of this AD, you
must do the following actions on the seat rails; seat rollers, washers, and axle bolts or bushings; seat
roller housings and the tangs; and lock pin springs, unless already done, initially within the next 100
hours time-in-service (TIS) after the last inspection done following AD 87-20-03 R2 or within the
next 12 calendar months after the effective date of this
AD, whichever occurs first. Repetitively thereafter do the actions at intervals not to exceed every 100
hours TIS or every 12 months, whichever occurs first:
(1) Visually inspect the pilot and copilot seat rails for dirt and debris that may prevent
engagement of the seat locking pins. Before further flight, after any inspection where dirt or debris is
found, remove the dirt or debris found.
(2) Remove the seat from the seat rail.
(i) Remove the seat stops.
(ii) Disengage seat belt/shoulder harness from the seat, if necessary.
(iii) Raise vertical adjusting seats to maximum height.
(iv) Hold seat latches disengaged and slide the seat forward and aft to disengage rollers.
(v) Lift the seat out of the airplane.
9

(3) Inspect the diameter of each seat locking pin engagement hole in the pilot and copilot seat
rails for excessive wear. Due to wear on the rail surface at the hole opening, we allow this
measurement 0.020 of an inch below the surface of the rail. You must take this measurement
somewhere between the surface of the rail or no more than 0.020 of an inch below the surface of the
rail.
(i) If the diameter of any of the holes is 0.42 of an inch or more (see figure 1), before further
flight, replace the rail.

(ii) Rail replacement does not terminate the repetitive actions required in paragraph (g) of this
AD.
10

(4) Visually inspect the seat rollers for flat spots and inspect the rollers and washers for binding.
Assure all rollers and washers, which are meant to rotate, turn freely on their axles (or bushings if
installed).
(i) Before further flight, replace any rollers with flat spots and any worn washers.
(ii) Before further flight, remove and clean the parts if there is any binding between the bores of
the rollers, washers, or axles.
(iii) Do not lubricate the rollers, washers, or axles because the lubricant will attract dust and
other particles that may cause binding.
(5) Inspect the thickness of the tang (see figure 2 and figure 3). Due to wear of the tang chafing
against the seat rail, measure the tang thickness where the tang inner edges contact the seat rail.
(i) If the tang thickness measures less than 0.05 of an inch, before further flight replace the roller
housing.
(ii) Replacement of the roller housing does not terminate the repetitive actions required in
paragraph (g) of this AD.

11

(6) Due to wear or deformation of the tangs, inspect the tang length from the inner edge of the
tang to the outer edge (the bend area) of the roller housing (see figure 4).

(i) The minimum measurement allowed for the remaining tang length is 0.230 inches remaining
on either of the tangs, from the inner edge of the tang to the outer edge (the bend area) of the roller
housing. If the measurement is less than 0.230 inches on either of the tangs, before further flight,
replace the roller housing.
(ii) Replacement of the roller housing does not terminate the repetitive actions required in
paragraph (g) of this AD.
(7) Inspect the springs that keep the lock pins in position in the rail holes for positive
engagement action. Before further flight, replace any spring that does not provide positive
engagement.
(8) Visually inspect the seat rails for cracks.
(i) If there are seat rail cracks that exceed the crack criteria in figure 5, before further flight,
replace the seat rail.
(ii) Replacement of the seat rail does not terminate the repetitive actions required in paragraph
(g) of this AD.

12

(9) Reinstall the seat on the seat rail.

(i) Lift the seat into the airplane and place on the seat rail.
(ii) Hold seat latches disengaged and slide the seat aft and then forward to re-engage rollers.
(iii) Lower vertical adjusting seats to a comfortable height.
(iv) Reattach seat belt/shoulder harness to the seat, if previously attached to the seat.
(v) Reinstall the seat stops.
(10) Lift up the forward edge of each seat to eliminate vertical play of the seat locking pin in the
engagement hole, and from this position, inspect the depth of engagement of each seat locking pin
(see figure 2). If the rail is worn, this depth is measured from the worn surface, not the manufactured
surface.
(i) If engagement of any of the seat locking pins measures less than 0.15 of an inch, before
further flight, replace or repair any seat components necessary to achieve a seat pin engagement of a
minimum of 0.15 of an inch.
(ii) Repair or replacement of necessary seat components does not terminate the repetitive actions
required in paragraph (g) of this AD.
