This AD applies to Hartzell Propeller, Inc., McCauley Propeller Systems, Sensenich Propeller Manufacturing Company, Inc., and Raytheon Aircraft Company (formerly Beech Aircraft Corporation) propellers returned to service by T and W Propellers, Inc. of Chino, CA, and that have a propeller hub serial number (SN) listed in Table 1 of this AD.

The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Hartzell Propeller, Inc., McCauley Propeller Systems, Sensenich Propeller Manufacturing Company, Inc., and Raytheon Aircraft Company (formerly Beech Aircraft Corporation) propellers returned to service by T and W Propellers, Inc., of Chino, CA. This AD requires maintenance actions amounting to an overhaul of the affected propellers. This AD is prompted by the results of a National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) investigation of a failed propeller blade and subsequent inspections of various propeller models returned to service by T and W Propellers, Inc. We are issuing this AD to detect unsafe conditions that could result in separation of a propeller blade and loss of control of the airplane.
The aircraft, engines and makers this AD names, by the model designations in its text. A model listed here may still be outside the AD's serial ranges.
