Airworthiness Directives; Raytheon Aircraft Company Models 1900, 1900C, and 1900D Airplanes

What this AD requires

This amendment supersedes Airworthiness Directive (AD) 97-04- 02, which currently requires installing new exterior placards with operating instructions for the airstair door, cargo door, and emergency exits, as applicable, on certain Raytheon Aircraft Company (Raytheon) Models 1900, 1900C, and 1900D airplanes. This AD requires either modifying the existing exterior placards with door operating instructions installed in accordance with AD 97-04-02; or installing new exterior placards with operating instructions for the airstair door, cargo door, and emergency exits, as applicable. This AD results from reports of the placards (required by AD 97-04-02) covering the atmospheric vents for the cabin door differential pressure lock. The actions specified by this AD are intended to continue to assure that clear and complete operating instructions are visible for opening the airstair door, cargo door, or emergency exits, and to prevent improper operation of the cabin door differential pressure lock caused by the placards blocking the atmospheric vents.

Whether AD 98-27121 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 98-27121 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.
