This work must be completed within 100 hours of flying time after 31 May 1980.\n\n**Why it matters:** Corrosion was discovered in elevator push rods on similar Beechcraft models. Since these rods control whether the aircraft pitches up or down, corrosion could cause the control to fail, potentially leading to a crash. This directive ensures the unsafe condition is identified and repaired before it causes an accident."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/ad-beech-56-20-elevator-control-push-rods","history":"/api/acts/ad-beech-56-20-elevator-control-push-rods/history","analysis":"/api/acts/ad-beech-56-20-elevator-control-push-rods/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/ad-beech-56-20-elevator-control-push-rods/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/ad-beech-56-20-elevator-control-push-rods/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/ad-beech-56-20-elevator-control-push-rods/documents"}}
