Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-9162 · Beech Aircraft Corporation Models 34C, T-34C, and T-34C-1 Airplanes
Beech Aircraft Corporation Models 34C, T-34C, and T-34C-1 Airplanes
The following model and serial number airplanes, certificated in any category, that have steel wing attachment assembly bolts and hardware: Model Serial numbers 34C.............................. GP-1 through GP-50. T-34C............................ GL-2 through GL-353. T-34C-1.......................... GM-1 through GM-71 and GM-78 through GM-98.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain Beech Aircraft Corporation (Beech) Models 34C, T- 34C, and T-34C-1 airplanes. This action requires replacing the eight wing attachment steel bolts and hardware with Inconel bolts and hardware. A report of the right lower aft wing attachment nut assembly separating in two pieces on a Model T-34C-1 airplane prompted this action. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent the wing from separating from the fuselage because of failure of this assembly.
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.
