IMPROVEMENT TO THE PSU TRIM PANEL INSTALLATION ABOVE THE EMERGENCY EXIT
1. Planning Information
A. Effectivity
PC-12/47E series aircraft MSN 2001 thru MSN 2999.
NOTE: Some aircraft were fitted with the modification proposed in this SB during production by 
the aircraft OEM. This SB does not need to be implemented if visual inspection 
confirms that the aircraft is already equipped with the dual locks. Refer to Figure 1.
B. Concurrent requirements
None.
C. Reason
(1) Problem
During an inspection it was identified that it is possible for the PSU trim panel (installed 
above the emergency exit door) to block the opening of the emergency exit.
This is possible if the PSU trim panel is positioned too far inboard due to incorrect 
installation, which can cause interference with the emergency exit door panel.
(2) Solution
A modification is necessary to improve the installation of the interior trim panels in the area 
of the emergency exit.
D. Description
This Service Bulletin gives the data and instructions necessary to:
• Part 1 - Determine if the dual lock fasten ers are installed on the PSU trim panel
• Part 2 - If necessary, introduce additional fa steners on the interior trim panels in the area 
of the emergency exit.
E. Compliance
Mandatory.
To be accomplished at the next scheduled annual inspection after the issue of this Service 
Bulletin.
