Validate the members of DATA, not this wrapper.",
"note": "CASA publishes no examples. These four records are VERBATIM entries pulled from the live combinedadweb.json on 2026-07-28 - not synthesised. They were chosen to cover every value of Status (Active, Cancelled, Urgent), both the CASA-issued and the adopted-foreign-directive cases, and both the populated-date and empty-string-date shapes. No field has been altered. Airworthiness Directives are regulatory instruments about aircraft types and carry no personal data.",
