Airworthiness Directive 98-33694
one-timeAirworthiness Directives; Raytheon Aircraft Company Models 1900, 1900C, and 1900D Airplanes
What this AD requires
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain Raytheon Aircraft Company (Raytheon) Models 1900, 1900C, and 1900D airplanes. This AD requires modifying the emergency exit doors and installing interior and exterior placards on each of the emergency exit doors. Difficulty in opening the emergency exit doors prompted this action. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent passengers and crew from not being able to open the emergency exit doors during an airplane emergency, which could result in passenger and crew injuries.
