Airworthiness Directives; Cessna Model 560 Series Airplanes

What this AD requires

This document publishes in the Federal Register an amendment adopting Airworthiness Directive (AD) 96-24-06 that was sent previously to all known U.S. owners and operators of certain Cessna Model 560 series airplanes by individual letters. This AD requires revising the FAA-approved Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) to provide the flightcrew with limitations, operational procedures, and performance information to be used during approach and landing when residual ice is present or can be expected. This amendment is prompted by reports indicating that, while operating in icing conditions or when ice is on the wings, some of these airplanes have experienced uncommanded roll at a speed at (or slightly higher than) the speed at which the stall warning system is activated. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent uncommanded roll of the airplane during approach and landing when residual ice is present or can be expected.

Whether AD 96-24-06 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 96-24-06 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.
