Reading the AD it means if you fly a lot of hours you will be doing reptitive checks until the end of the year by which time you will have incorporated the modification kit that terminates the AD. So I guess the sooner you carry out the AD the better for the operator obviously depending on available workshop hours.
Looks like the vertical stabiliser is cracking earlier than was thought possible and is very intolerant of an out of balance tail rotor.
