Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-11351 · Raytheon (Beech) Model 400A Airplanes
Raytheon (Beech) Model 400A Airplanes
Model 400A airplanes, serial numbers RK-1 through RK-92 inclusive, certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Raytheon (Beech) Model 400A airplanes, that requires replacement of the fuel drain tube assembly in the aft fuselage with a new, modified assembly. This amendment is prompted by a report of chafing of the fuel tube assembly against the elevator control cable due to inadequate clearance between the components. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent chafing of the fuel drain tube assembly, which could result in fuel leakage from the fuel drain tube assembly and consequent risk of a fire.
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.
