This amendment supersedes Airworthiness Directive (AD) 92-08-07, which currently requires inspecting (one-time) the wing front spar carry-through frame structure for cracks on certain Beech 33, 35, and 36 series airplanes, and repairing or reinforcing any cracked wing front spar carry-through frame structure. This action would make this one-time inspection repetitive. This action was prompted by numerous (43) reports received by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) of cracks found on the wing front spar carry-through frame structure of the affected airplanes. These cracks were found during the inspection required by AD 92-08-07. The actions specified by the proposed AD are intended to prevent spar carry-through frame structure failure caused by cracking, which, if not detected and corrected, could result in severe structural damage to the wing. The incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in the regulations was previously approved by the Directorof the Federal Register as of March 18, 1992.
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.
