This document makes a correction to Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2003-01-01, which was published in the Federal Register on January 8, 2003 (68 FR 997), and applies to certain Raytheon Aircraft Company (Raytheon) Beech Models 36, A36, A36TC, B36TC, 58, and 58A airplanes. We inadvertently omitted certain regulatory text to remove AD 2000-26- 16, Amendment 39-12066, from 14 CFR part 39. This action corrects the regulatory text.
A correction restates part of an AD that was published incorrectly. It is not an additional requirement and it does not change the AD number or its effective date.

Full official abstract
This amendment supersedes Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2000- 26-16, which applies to certain Raytheon Aircraft Company (Raytheon) Beech Models A36, B36TC, and 58 airplanes. AD 2000-26-16 requires you to inspect for missing rivets on the right hand side of the fuselage and, if necessary, install rivets. AD 2000-26-16 resulted from Raytheon identifying several instances of missing rivets on these airplanes. AD 2000-26-16 incorporated an incorrect listing of serial numbers for the affected model airplanes and omitted certain airplane models from the applicability section of AD 2000-26-16. This AD retains the actions required in AD 2000-26-16 and corrects the applicability section. The actions specified by this AD are intended to detect and correct missing rivets in the right hand fuselage panel assembly in the area above the right wing and below the cabin door threshold. These rivets must be present for the fuselage to carry the ultimate load and prevent critical structural failure with loss of airplane control.
