Airworthiness Directives; Raytheon Aircraft Company Beech Model C90 Airplanes

What this AD requires

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain Raytheon Aircraft Company (Raytheon) Beech Model C90 airplanes. This AD requires you to inspect the left-hand (LH) and right-hand (RH) nacelle and spar assembly for the existence of rivets, and requires you to install rivets if they do not exist or are the wrong size or type. This AD is the result of Raytheon identifying several instances where rivets were either missing or were the wrong size or type on these airplanes. The actions specified by this AD are intended to correct the installation of rivets in the LH and RH nacelle and spar assembly. These rivets must be present and have the correct dimension in order to prevent reduced structural integrity, which could result in structural failure and possible loss of control of the airplane.

Applicability text captured here is boilerplate only (the paragraph (a) model/serial list is not present in this excerpt). Compliance is via Raytheon Mandatory Service Bulletin SB 54-3308, issued October 2000.

Whether AD 2002-09-12 actually applies to your aircraft (by serial and installed parts) and whether it’s already complied with comes from that aircraft’s records.

How AD compliance is recorded

A valid compliance record (14 CFR 43.9) states:

Method of compliance — The specific action taken (inspected, replaced, modified) and to what revision.

Date — When the work was done.

Aircraft time — Total time in service / tach at compliance — how recurring next-due is computed.

Signature & certificate — The A&P/IA who returned it to service, with certificate number.

Is AD 2002-09-12 complied with on your aircraft?

Tailplate reads a tail number’s logbooks and matches every applicable AD — including this one — to its compliance evidence, with recurring next-due dates computed.

Applicability is derived from the FAA directive corpus and is advisory, not a legal airworthiness determination. Compliance is established only from an aircraft’s actual records.
