Raytheon Aircraft Company Model 390 Premier 1 Airplanes
This AD affects Model 390 airplanes that:
(1) Incorporate a serial number of RB-1, RB-4 through RB-84, RB-87 through RB-90, RB-92 through RB-96, RB-98 through RB-101, and RB-103 through RB-107; and

The FAA adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Raytheon Aircraft Company (Raytheon) Premier 1 390 airplanes. This AD requires you to verify minimum clearances to correct chafing conditions in the powerplant left-hand and right-hand engine installations. This AD results from reports of inadequate left-hand and right-hand engine assembly cable, wire, and hose routing clearance. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct chafing conditions in the engine installation, which could result in leaking flammable fluids near an ignition source. This failure could lead to fire damage or loss of airplane control.
To address this problem, you must do the following:
| Actions | Compliance | Procedures |
|---|---|---|
| Verify minimum clearances to correct chafing conditions in the powerplant left-hand and right-hand engine assembly cable, wire, and hose routing by installation of the following: (i) If Kit No. 390-9104-0001 has already been installed and the tube cleared successfully, then no further action is necessary (ii) If Kit No. 390-9104-0001 has already been installed and clearance with the tube was not obtained, then install Kit No. 390-9104-0003 (iii) If Kit No. 390-9104-0001 has not been installed, then install Kit No. 390-9104-0005 | Within the next 100 hours time-in-service (TIS) or 6 months after November 14, 2005 (the effective date of this AD), whichever occurs first. We established this compliance time to coincide with the next regularly scheduled inspection. You may comply with this AD at any time prior to this time and not have to recomply | Follow Raytheon Aircraft Company Mandatory Service Bulletin No. SB 71-3685, Issued May 2005, Revised: July 2005. |
