Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

This AD requires owners/operators of Beechcraft B90/C90/C90A aircraft (serials LJ‑489 through LJ‑1318) to have inspections and any repairs done per Beechcraft Mandatory Service Bulletin No. 2475, unless already completed within 150 hours’ time in service from 11 Nov 1993. It responds to reported fuel‑line misalignment that can crack fuel‑cell nipples and risk leaks or fire. Compliance imposes inspection, repair, parts, labour and downtime costs and binds acceptable means of compliance to the manufacturer’s Service Bulletin.
