This directive requires owners/operators of specified Beechcraft Model 300 aeroplanes (serials FA‑2 to FA‑211 and FF‑1 to FF‑19) to comply with FAA AD 93‑01‑20 (or rely on prior compliance with FAA AD 89‑22‑12). It aims to prevent upper aft cowling access doors opening and separating in flight, and permits a latch‑replacement kit as an alternative compliance method. Operators bear the cost and must follow the referenced FAA technical instructions.
