Airworthiness Directives; Cessna Aircraft Company Model CESSNA 441 Airplanes

What this AD requires

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain Cessna Aircraft Company (Cessna) Model CESSNA 441 airplanes. This AD requires you to do a one-time inspection of the fuel boost pump wiring inside and outside the boost pump reservoir, and repair or replace the wiring as necessary. This AD is the result of several reports of chafing and/or arcing of the fuel boost pump wiring inside and outside the fuel pump reservoir. The actions specified by this AD are intended to detect and correct chafing and/or arcing boost pump wiring, which could result in arcing within the wing fuel storage system. Such failure could lead to ignition of explosive vapor within the fuel storage system.

Applies to Cessna 441 airplanes to inspect the 5718106-1 wire harness and fuel boost pump lead wires for chafing/damage per Cessna Conquest Service Bulletin CQB02-1R1, Revision 1.

Whether AD 2002-09-13 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 complianceThe specific action taken (inspected, replaced, modified) and to what revision.
DateWhen the work was done.
Aircraft timeTotal time in service / tach at compliance — how recurring next-due is computed.
Signature & certificateThe A&P/IA who returned it to service, with certificate number.
Is AD 2002-09-13 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.
