Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

This directive requires owners/operators of Beechcraft Model 60/A60/B60 aircraft to remove the pressure cabin from service before the airframe completes 12,800 pressurised flights. It enforces a manufacturer‑based life limit for safety, imposes tracking and compliance costs on operators, and will reduce operational capability or resale value as cabins reach that limit.
