93-01-07 BEECH AIRCRAFT CORPORATION: Amendment 39-8461. Docket 92-NM-164- AD.

Applicability: Model 400A series airplanes having serial numbers RK-1 through RK-32, inclusive; and Model 400T series airplanes having serial numbers TT-1 through TT-6, inclusive; certificated in any category.

Compliance: Required as indicated, unless accomplished previously.

To prevent snagging of the end clevis fitting and kinking (and subsequent failure) of the emergency release cable of the main landing gear, which may prevent extension of the main landing gear, accomplish the following:

(a) Within 100 flight hours after the effective date of this AD, replace the existing link assembly from the uplink mechanism of the main landing gear door with an improved link assembly, in accordance with Beechcraft Service Bulletin 2447, dated June 1992.

(b) An alternative method of compliance or adjustment of the compliance time that provides an acceptable level of safety may be used if approved by the Manager, Wichita Aircraft Certification Office (ACO), FAA, Small Airplane Directorate. Operators shall submit their requests through an appropriate FAA Principal Maintenance Inspector, who may add comments and then send it to the Manager, Wichita ACO.

NOTE: Information concerning the existence of approved alternative methods of compliance with this AD, if any, may be obtained from the Wichita ACO.

(c) Special flight permits may be issued in accordance with FAR 21.197 and 21.199 to operate the airplane to a location where the requirements of this AD can be accomplished.

(d) The replacement shall be done in accordance with Beechcraft Service Bulletin 2447, dated June 1992. This incorporation by reference was approved by the Director of the Federal Register in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 1 CFR Part 51. Copies may be obtained from Beech Aircraft Corporation, P.O. Box 85, Wichita, Kansas 67201-0085. Copies may be inspected at the FAA, Transport Airplane Directorate, 1601 Lind Avenue, SW., Renton, Washington; or at the FAA, Wichita Aircraft Certification Office, 1801 Airport Road, Room 100, Mid-Continent Airport, Wichita, Kansas; or at the Office of the Federal Register, 800 North Capitol Street, NW., suite 700, Washington, DC.
