SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to revise an earlier proposed airworthiness directive (AD) to supersede AD 86-26-04 that applies to certain Cessna Aircraft Company (Cessna) 120, 140, 140A, 150, F150, 170, 172, F172, FR172, P172D, 175, 177, 180, 182, 185, A185E, 190, 195, 205, 205A, 206, P206, P206E, TP206A, TU206, TU206E, U206, U206E, 207, T207, 210, T210, 336, 337, and T337 series airplanes. The earlier NPRM proposed to retain the actions of AD 86-26-04, add additional airplanes to the applicability section, and incorporated revised manufacturer service information. This proposed AD is the result of the FAA inadvertently omitting 10 affected airplane serial numbers for Model TU206D airplanes from the applicability section of the earlier NPRM. This proposed AD would retain the actions of earlier NPRM and add additional airplanes to the applicability section of this proposed AD. Since these actions impose an additional burden over that proposed in the earlier NPRM, we are reopening the comment period to allow the public the chance to comment on these additional actions.
