Superseded. A later AD replaced this one: AD 2001-13-18. Comply with the one in force.
Beech Models 45 (YT-34), A45 (T-34A, B-45), and D45 (T-34B) airplanes, all serial numbers, certificated in any category.
This document publishes in the Federal Register an amendment adopting Airworthiness Directive (AD) 99-12-02, which was sent previously to all known U.S. owners and operators of Raytheon Aircraft Corporation (Raytheon) Beech Models 45 (YT-34), A45 (T-34A, B-45), and D45 (T-34B) airplanes. This AD requires incorporating operating limitations that restrict operation of the airplanes to normal category operation and prohibit them from acrobatic and utility category operations; limit the flight load factor to 0 to 2.5 G; and limit the maximum airspeed to 175 miles per hour (mph) (152 knots). This AD resulted from a report of an in-flight separation of the right wing on a Raytheon Beech Model A45 (T-34A) airplane. The actions specified by this AD are intended to assure the operational safety of the above- referenced airplanes.
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.
