  FAA-2006-26498;  Directorate Identifier 2006-CE-83-AD.</p>
<p><strong>Airworthiness Directives; Cessna Aircraft  Company Models 208 and 208B Airplanes </strong></p>
<p><strong>SUMMARY:</strong> <strong><font color="green">The FAA is  adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) to supersede AD 2006-06-06</font></strong>,  which applies to certain Cessna Aircraft Company (Cessna) Models 208 and 208B  airplanes. AD 2006-06-06 currently requires you to incorporate information into  the applicable section of the Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) and Pilot's  Operating Handbook (POH) and requires you to install placards. Since we issued  AD 2006-06-06, Cessna issued new S1 Known Icing Equipment AFM supplements and  developed a low airspeed awareness system. Consequently, this AD requires you  to incorporate the applicable AFM supplement revision and temporarily retain  the requirements of AD 2006-06-06 until the above revisions are incorporated.  One of the AFM requirements is the installation of a functional low airspeed  awareness system to operate the airplane in known icing conditions. We are  issuing this AD to assure that the pilot has enough information and the  necessary equipment to prevent loss of control of the airplane while in-flight  during icing conditions.</p>
<p><strong>DATES:</strong> This AD becomes effective  on June 21, 2007.</p>
<p><strong>Affected ADs </strong><br>
  (b)     <strong><font color = "green">This AD  supersedes AD 2006-06-06, Amendment 39-14514.</font></strong></p>
<p><strong>Applicability </strong><br>
  (c)     This  AD applies to Models 208 and 208B, all serial numbers, that are certificated in  any category.</p>
<p><strong>Unsafe Condition </strong></p>

<ul>
  <li>This AD results from our determination that the revisions dated  February 20, 2007, to the S1 Known Icing Equipment AFM supplement are necessary  and should be incorporated into the Airplane Flight Manual (AFM)/Pilot's  Operating Handbook (POH); and that a low airspeed awareness system should be  required when operating in known icing conditions. We are issuing this AD to  assure that the pilot has enough information and the necessary equipment to  prevent loss of control of the airplane while in-flight during icing  conditions.</li>
