SERVICE BULLETIN

MANDATORY SB 28-4127Issued: June, 2013 The export of these commodities, technology or software are subject to the U.S. Export Administration Regulations. Diversion contrary to U.S. law is prohibited. For guidance on export control requirements, contact the Commerce Department's Bureau of Export Administration at http://www.bis.doc.gov.

Beechcraft Corporation (BC) issues Service Information for the benefit of owners and fixed base operators in the form of two classes of Service Bulletins. The first class, Mandatory Service Bulletins (red border) includes changes, inspection and modifications that could affect safety or crashworthiness. BC also issues Service Bulletins with no red border which are designated as either recommended or optional in the compliance section within the bulletin. In the case of recommended Service Bulletins, BC feels the changes, modifications, improvements or inspections will benefit the owner/operator and although highly recommended, Recommended Service Bulletins are not considered mandatory at the time of issuance. In the case of Optional Service Bulletins, compliance with the changes, modifications, improvements or inspections is at the owner/operator's discretion.

Both classes are available on the web at http://pubs.hawkerbeechcraft.com and mailed to:

(a) Owners of record on the FAA Aircraft Registration Branch List and the BC Safety of Flight Information (SOFI) List.

(b) Those having a publications subscription.

Information on Safety of Flight Information (SOFI) or subscription can be obtained through the Beechcraft Corporation Technical Manual Distribution Center (TMDC). As Mandatory Service Bulletins and Service Bulletins are issued, the Service Bulletin Master Index will be updated and available online at http://pubs.beechcraft.com. Warranty will be allowed only when specifically defined in the Service Bulletin and in accordance with BC Warranty Policy.

Unless otherwise designated, BC Mandatory Service Bulletins, Service Bulletins and BC Kits are approved for installation on BC airplanes in original or BC modified configurations only.

BC Mandatory Service Bulletins, Service Bulletins and Kits may not be compatible with airplanes modified by STC installations or modifications other than BC approved kits.

SERVICE BULLETIN Issued: June, 2013 SB 28-4127 8 of 21

MANDATORY

(i) Using a (non-explosive) borescope and/or flashlight and mirror, visu ally inspect each fuel bladder interconnect nipple base reinforcement area for separation from bladder wall.

Refer to Figure 5. If any degree of separation is noted, remove and replace fuel bladder. If no separation is noted, continue to next step.

(ii) The purpose of this step is to verify interconnect tube position relative to the spar. If the interconnect tube is not correctly positioned, unintended loads could be induced on the bladder. Remove the center tank fuel bladder nipple and clamps from each interconnect tube. Apply forward pressure to the aft side of each interconnect tube. If the interconnect tube(s) are installed correctly the tube bead should come against the spar and not continue into the leading edge fuel cell area (See Figure 4). If the interconnect tube is not installed correctly remove the interconnect tube and install correctly per Figure 4. If the tube is installed correctly continue to next step.

(iii) Along the lower accessible areas of the fuel bay liners, use a borescope to verify that duct tape is installed over rivets and sheet metal edges, and that no foreign objects are present.

If any foreign objects exist or tape is found missing from edges, verify that no damage exists to the bladder. Install tape, if missing, over defined areas.

(iv) The purpose of this step is to verify that the bladder is positioned tight against the spar. If the bladder is not tight against and supported by the spar, unintended loads could be induced on the bladder. Hold forward pressure on the aft side of the interconnect tube(s), access the forward side of the interconnect tubes in the inboard and outboard leading edge bladders and ensure that the leading edge inboard and outboard fuel cells, at each interconnect tube, are tight against the forward side of the spar. If not tight, reposition nipple, ensuring it is tight against the forward face of the spar.

(v) Reinstall center tank nipples to interconnec t tubes and ensure that the bladder is tight against the aft face of the fuel bay liner.

(vi) Install new clamps P/N WWD82, as applicable , to interconnect tube, P/N 002-920012-53.

Ensure that the clamps are torqued to 30-35 inch-pounds. Install new clamps, P/N WWD114 (or equivalent P/N NAS1924-114), as applicable, to interconnect tube, P/N 002-920012-51. Ensure that the clamps are torqued to 35-40 inch-pounds.

(c) Ensure that the hanger snap clips are properly fastened on the top of each fuel bladder.

(d) Install the respective fuel cell doors, using new gaskets, P/N 002-920020-1 (Quantity 3 per wing) and P/N 35-921502 (Quantity 2 per wing). Install fuel access panels. Install any other access panels that were removed to gain access to the three fuel cells. Note: Do not install exhaust heat shields at this time.

Inspection of Wheel Well and Nacelle Area Inspect for the existence of and damage from foreign objects. All foreign objects shall be removed and any damage shall be addressed in accordance with the Baron Maintenance Manual.
