Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This is a mandatory aviation safety notice (called an Airworthiness Directive) issued by Australia's aviation regulator for specific Beechcraft aircraft.

Who it affects: Owners and operators of Beechcraft Model 36 (Bonanza) aeroplanes with serial numbers E-42 and subsequent.

What it requires: You must inspect and/or secure the engine mount bolt nuts (the critical hardware that attaches the engine to the aircraft frame) following the exact procedure in the manufacturer's Service Instruction No. 0396-241.

When: Within 25 hours of flight time after 21 August 1970.

Why it matters: Engine mount bolts keep the engine attached to the airframe. If they fail, the engine could separate from the aircraft in flight, causing a crash. This directive ensures these critical fasteners are properly maintained before a safety issue occurs.
