    This document from the Civil Aviation Safety Authority of Australia lists an airworthiness directive requiring the modification of oil-filled propeller hubs on certain McCauley propeller models used for agricultural aircraft. The modification must be completed by the next propeller overhaul or by December 1, 1989, whichever occurs first, and involves dyeing the oil in the hubs according to McCauley service manuals to assist in early detection of cracks due to the load cycles experienced during agricultural use.

    SCHEDULE OF AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES

    Propellers - Variable Pitch - McCauley

    AD/PMC/42 Oil Filled Hubs for Agricultural Aircraft 13/88


    Applicability: All model D2A34C58, D2A34C98 and D3A32C90 series propellers fitted to
    agricultural aircraft.

    Requirement: Modify all propeller hubs to dye oil filled standard in accordance with McCauley
    Service Manual 720415 Supplement No 1. Service Bulletins 122 and 138C refer.

    Note: FAA AD 78-20-01 and 85-08-08 refer.

    Compliance: At next propeller overhaul or by 1 December 1989, whichever occurs first.

    Background: Further hub failures have occurred since revision of the threaded hub dye inspection
    AD. Due to the load cycles imposed in a hub during agricultural operations and to
    assist in early detection of hub cracks dye oil filling is being introduced. Propeller
    TBO has also been reduced to 1200 hours.
