Requires inspecting for interference or inadequate clearance between the flight control mechanism and any component located forward of the instrument panel.
Full official abstract
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain Raytheon Aircraft Company (Raytheon) Beech Models A36, B36TC, 58, 58A, C90A, B200, B300, and 1900D airplanes. This AD requires inspecting for interference or inadequate clearance between the flight control mechanism and any component located forward of the instrument panel. If interference or inadequate clearance is found, this AD requires securing all components so that they are clear of the flight control mechanism. This AD is the result of an incident where the electrical/avionics wires made contact with and restricted the control system of the affected airplanes. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent any component or wiring from interfering with the flight control mechanism caused by inadequate clearance, which could result in reduced or loss of aileron and/or elevator control.
