What was found
THE ACFT IS EQUIPPED WITH STC'D EMERGENCY FLOAT BAGS WITH LIFE RAFT. THE EMERGENCY RAFT PULL CABLE TO ACTIVATE THE RAFT FAILED COMPLETELY DURING THE INITIAL 24 MONTH ROUNTINE INSP. THE CABLE IS MADE FROM INFERIOR NON-AVIATION GRADE MATERIALS AND THIS FAILURE IS COMMON AMONG ALL THE KITS FOR VARIOUS MODELS OF ACFT. THE STC NR FOR THIS PARTICULAR KIT IS SR01459LA. IF THE ACFT WAS ACTUALLY IN AN EMERGENCY WATER LANDING CONDITION THE PASSENGERS AND CREW WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO INFLATE THE RAFT BEFORE THE ACFT POSSBILY SINKING IN MODERATE TO ROUGH SEAS AND BECAUSE THERE ARE NO CARRY ON LIFE RAFTS REQUIRED DUE TO THIS KIT WITH 2 RAFTS INCORPORATED THEY WOULD HAVE HAD NO OTHER SURVIVAL EQUIPMENT OTHER THAN THE LIFE VEST THAT THEY WERE WEARING.
