Cessna 310J — Airworthiness Directives & records checklist
58 Cessna 310Js are on the U.S. registry. Here’s what a records review covers for one — the Airworthiness Directives that apply, the known trouble spots, and the checklist a buyer or owner should hold every logbook against.
Airworthiness Directives that apply to the Cessna 310J
- one-timeAD 90-CE-35-AD — Airworthiness Directives; Textron Aviation Inc. (Type Certificate previously held by Cessna Aircraft Company) Airplanes ... ) and supplemental notice of pro · 1990-01-01

- one-timeAD 57-04-01 — Airworthiness Directives; CESSNA All Model 310 Aircraft · 1957-01-01
This is the applicability list. Which of these are complied with, their computed next-due dates, and the 21 serial/mod-conditional ADs that actually apply to your aircraft come from its digitized logbooks — that’s the verified report.
Known trouble spots on the 310J
Many Hartzell and McCauley constant-speed props carry blade-shank or hub ADs plus a calendar/hours overhaul interval; blade corrosion and hub grease leaks are common findings. Confirm the prop AD status and last overhaul against the interval.
Twin Cessnas carry recurring wing-spar (lower cap / spar-strap) inspections and a complex hydraulic landing gear with known actuator, saddle and door-sequencing wear. Confirm the spar AD/SID inspection status and the landing-gear rigging and function checks.
