Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This directive requires owners of Beechcraft Debonair and Bonanza (33-series) aeroplanes to inspect the rear‑row seat rails for front-end safety stops and install approved stop assemblies (P/N 414‑180657‑3 or Secretary‑approved equivalent) if missing. It prevents seats from sliding dangerously forward in sudden stops, hard landings, or crashes, protecting passengers and evacuation routes. Compliance was required before July 1973; previously met requirements remain valid.
