In response to final safety recommendation 087/98, the CAA believes that it would be more appropriate to focus on the need for all the procedures specified by the manufacturer to be followed, with this event used as an example of the result of failure to take such action. The CAA would implement such corrective action by the publication of a suitable article in Vector, probably within the first quarter of 1999.
