Service Directive Bulletins – Piston

A Service Directive Bulletin (SDB) is used to direct the owner/operator and/or maintenance personnel to make mandatory changes, improvements, or inspections to the aircraft.

The information provided in the Service Directive Bulletins will be incorporated into the maintenance manual as needed at a later date. At the time of incorporation, the SDB is superseded by the maintenance manual, and accomplishment or sigh-off of the SDB in the maintenance records book is no longer required. A detailed entry should be made in the maintenance records to indicate that the SDB is superseded by the maintenance manual.
