Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This is a safety directive (called an Airworthiness Directive) for owners and operators of specific Beechcraft Bonanza aircraft (models 35, A35, B35, C35, and E35 manufactured before serial number D3916).

It requires immediate action to correct how the pitot and static pressure lines are routed inside the aircraft. These lines are tubes that carry air pressure from outside the plane to the cockpit instruments that display airspeed and altitude — critical information for safe flight. If these lines are routed incorrectly, they could become damaged or give false readings.

Rather than spelling out the technical fix itself, the directive requires operators to follow specific manufacturer Service Bulletins (technical instruction manuals) that correspond to their exact aircraft model. The directive takes effect immediately ("forthwith").
