If you thought your Bonanza or Baron missed a January, 2001, AD for the installation of missing rivets on the airframe, think again. The company has since discovered that not all affected aircraft serial numbers were included. A corrected AD has been issued by the FAA.
If you’ve had a new hub installed in your two-bladed Hartzell prop recently, this AD might be for you. The company has found defects in some hubs and replacements must be carried out within 50 or 100 hours depending on the type of aircraft installation.
AD Watch
Key Takeaways:
- The FAA has issued a corrected Airworthiness Directive (AD) for Bonanza and Baron aircraft regarding missing airframe rivets, as the original January 2001 AD did not include all affected serial numbers.
- A new AD requires replacement of defective hubs in certain recently installed two-bladed Hartzell propellers, with compliance required within 50 or 100 flight hours depending on the aircraft type.
