To prevent seizure and binding of the oxygen control cable due to freezing of contaminating moisture which will interfere with actuation of the oxygen system, within the next 50 hours time-in-service after the effective date of this AD, accomplish the following: A) On airplanes listed in GROUP I of the applicability statement, locally fabricate, using letters at least 3/32" high, and install in clear view of the pilot, a placard which reads as follows: "Flight above 25,000 feet prohibited unless the oxygen system is ARMED (ON)." and operate the airplane in accordance with this limitation. B) On airplanes listed in Group II of the applicability statement, locally fabricate, using letters at least 3/32" high, and install in clear view of the pilot, a placard which reads as follows: "Flight above 25,000 feet prohibited unless the occupants are using oxygen" and operate the airplane in accordance with this limitation. C) Install a copy of theAD in the Limitation Section of the AFM of the airplanes listed in Group I and Group II of the applicability statement. D) The installation of the required placard and insertion of this AD may be accomplished by the holder of a pilot certificate issued under Part 61 of the Federal Aviation Regulations on any airplane owned or operated by that person, who must make an entry in the airplane maintenance records indicating compliance with this AD. E) The placards specified herein may be removed from the airplane and a copy of the AD removed from the AFM upon modification of the airplane in accordance with Beechcraft Service Instructions No. 0867-341, Revision II, Part I, and recording of compliance with this paragraph in the airplane maintenance records. NOTE: The Beech Model H90 (Military T-44A), A100 (Military U-21F, S/N B-95 through B-99) and A200 (Military C-12A and C-12C) airplanes utilize P/N 90-384020-7, P/N 90- 384020-9 and P/N 90-384020-11, respectively, as replacement oxygen cable assemblies. These military airplanes and P/N 90-384020-11 cable assembly are not listed in Beechcraft Service Instruction No. 0867-341, Revision II. However, the replacement cable assemblies may be installed in these airplanes in accordance with said Service Instructions if removal of the placards is desired. F) Any equivalent method of compliance must be approved by the Chief, Aircraft Certification Program, Federal Aviation Administration, Room 238, Terminal Building No. 2299, Mid-Continent Airport, Wichita, Kansas 67209. Amendment 39-3759 became effective May 1, 1980. This Amendment 39-3807 becomes effective June 11, 1980. ## Affected data sheets (3) (OpenAirDocs) The type certificate data sheets whose models the AD names. - [TCDS 3A20](https://openairdocs.org/tcds/3A20): Textron Aviation Inc.; names 4 of 22 models: B90, E90, H90, C90 - [TCDS A24CE](https://openairdocs.org/tcds/A24CE): Textron Aviation Inc.; names 4 of 37 models: 200, A200 (C-12A), 200T, 200C - [TCDS A14CE](https://openairdocs.org/tcds/A14CE): Textron Aviation Inc.; names 3 of 12 models: B100, A100, 100 ## Registered aircraft it may apply to (OpenAirDocs) Matched by airframe and engine model; the AD's applicability may narrow it by serial number, part number or equipment. - Aircraft: 745 (745 by airframe model, 0 by engine model) - Makers: Beech 744, Raytheon 1 Models with the most aircraft: - [Beech 200](https://openairdocs.org/model/beech-200): 234 aircraft (airframe model) - [Beech C90](https://openairdocs.org/model/beech-c90): 216 aircraft (airframe model) - [Beech E-90](https://openairdocs.org/model/beech-e-90): 145 aircraft (airframe model) - [Beech B100](https://openairdocs.org/model/beech-b100): 58 aircraft (airframe model) - [Beech B90](https://openairdocs.org/model/beech-b90): 29 aircraft (airframe model) - [Beech A200](https://openairdocs.org/model/beech-a200): 17 aircraft (airframe model) - [Beech A100](https://openairdocs.org/model/beech-a100): 15 aircraft (airframe model) - [Beech 100](https://openairdocs.org/model/beech-100): 14 aircraft (airframe model) - [Beech 200T](https://openairdocs.org/model/beech-200t): 8 aircraft (airframe model) - [Beech 200C](https://openairdocs.org/model/beech-200c): 7 aircraft (airframe model) - [Beech A200 (C-12C)](https://openairdocs.org/model/beech-a200-c-12c): 1 aircraft (airframe model) - [Raytheon E90](https://openairdocs.org/model/raytheon-e90): 1 aircraft (airframe model) All 12 models: https://openairdocs.org/ad/80-09-03-R1/models.md Every aircraft: https://openairdocs.org/ad/80-09-03-R1/aircraft.md Its text cites no advisory circulars or STCs. --- OpenAirDocs.org is an independent research project of [Contrail Labs](https://contraillabs.com/).
