Modified cable assemblies are identified by either blue or green paint on the parachute pin in the swaged area.

(b) Replace all unmodified cableassemblies located during the inspections required by paragraph (a) with a modified cable assembly in accordance with Air Cruisers Company Service Bulletin 25-29, dated October 23, 1975, and Lockheed Alert Service Bulletin No. 093-25-A239, dated October 23, 1975, or later FAA-approved revisions, or equivalent modifications approved by the Chief, Aircraft Engineering Division, FAA Western Region.
