47-21-04 NAVION: (Was Mandatory Note 3 of AD-782-3.) Applies to Serial Numbers NAV-4-2 Through 21, 24 Through 29, 32, 35, 36, 40, 42 Through 47, 57, 192, 199, 251.

To be accomplished not later than August 1, 1947.

The original fuel filler scupper will collect spilled gasoline since no drain line is provided. In addition, the thickness of material is insufficient to prevent damaging by the filler hose nozzle. To eliminate these conditions, a redesigned scupper with drain line is to be installed per NAA Drawing 145-89010.
