What this directive does

This is an Airworthiness Directive — a mandatory safety order issued by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority that legally requires aircraft owners to fix specific unsafe conditions in aircraft.

Who it affects Owners and operators of specific Beechcraft Baron aeroplanes (Model 95-55 with serial numbers TC-2 to TC-79, excluding serial numbers TC-58, TC-64, and TC-75).

What must be done The elevator assemblies (the movable control surfaces on the tail that make the plane climb or descend) must be inspected or modified strictly in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions in Beechcraft Service Bulletin 55 - No. 1.

Compliance deadline The work had to be completed before 1 September 1971.

Why this matters This directive addresses specific defects in the elevator assemblies of these particular aircraft to prevent potential mechanical failure that could lead to loss of control during flight.
