Airworthiness Directives (Ads) are substantive regulations issued by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in accordance with Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 39. Ads are issued when (1) an unsafe condition exists in the product (i.e., aircraft, aircraft engine, propeller, or appliance), and (2) the condition is likely to exist or develop in other products of the same type design. Once an AD is issued, no person may operate a product to which the AD applies except in accordance with the requirements of that AD. This manual provides policy and guidance for the drafting, issuance, and distribution of Ads. It is intended to explain the laws that apply to Ads, procedures for writing an AD, and policies on key AD-related issues.
