This action establishes a low altitude Area Navigation (RNAV) route, designated T274 in the State of Oregon. Troutes are low altitude Air Traffic Service (ATS) routes, based on RNAV, for use by aircraft having instrument flight rules (IFR)approved Global Positioning System (GPS)/Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) equipment. The FAA is taking this action to enhance safety and improve the efficient use of the navigable airspace in Oregon.

We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above that would supersede an existing AD. This proposed AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as:

AD 20070315E was issued to address a possible fuel leakage in the gear compartment in front of the engine and mandated inspections and replacement of fuel plasticmade connectors by connectors made of metal. Since its publication, another fuel leakage has been reported on a S10VT which had implemented the STEMME Service Bulletin (SB) A3110082 as required by AD 20070315E.

It has been determined that the fuel leak may have been caused by the deformation that the originally installed clamps created on the fuel hoses and thus preventing the new clamps from being sufficiently pinched to perform a correct tightening.
