## Summary

This document proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 98-13-02, which currently requires operating limitations on Raytheon Aircraft Company (Raytheon) Beech Models 35, 35R, A35, and B35 airplanes. This proposed AD is the result of Raytheon developing inspection and modification procedures that, when accomplished on the affected airplanes, would eliminate the need for the operating limitations. This proposed AD would retain the operating limitations for the affected airplanes until the recently developed inspection and modification procedures are accomplished. The proposed AD would also require repetitive inspections of the fuselage structure. The actions specified by the proposed AD are intended to continue to prevent structural failure of the V-tail, which could result in loss of control of the airplane.
