NOTES:
(*) - Denotes suffix letter(s). Some models have one or more suffix letter designations, others have none.
(1)&(2) - Propeller model and hub serial numbers are stamped on the side of the propeller hub. The listing of hub serial numbers refers to specific hub serial numbers not series. In the event a spinner is installed, the spinner should be removed to check the model and hub (S/N) designations. The aircraft's records should likewise be checked to ensure that the model and hub serial number coincide with the records. In the event an error is noted, the records should be corrected accordingly. Prior to further flight, spinners should be reinstalled where applicable.
(3) - Includes listing of applicable aircraft serial numbers. If no listing is indicated, applies to all applicable serial numbers of a particular aircraft model or series.
H) or (U - Indicates that the propeller rework was accomplished by (H) Hoosier Aircraft Accessory, Inc., or (U) Univair Aircraft Corporation. These letters are not part of the manufacturer's hub serial numbers.
Compliance required as indicated, unless already accomplished. To preclude the possibility of blade actuating pin failures resulting from using an incorrect actuating pin, or improper rework of the ferrules and installation of the blade actuating pins and washers (i.e., a blind actuating pin hole not tapped to the proper depth can cause stripped threads on the ends of the actuating pin resulting in severe stress and may preventactuating pin from seating on the washers) accomplish the following:
(a) All propellers listed above which were modified by (H) - Hoosier Aircraft Accessory, Inc.
(1) Within 25 hours time in service after the effective date of this AD, disassemble the propeller and inspect the blade actuating pins, washers and ferrules for proper conformity and installation in accordance with McCauley Service Manual No. 720415, Chapter I, or later Federal Aviation Administration approved revision(s)
(2) Prior to further flight, repair or replace as necessary, any improperly installed blade actuating pins, washers, and ferrules, and reassemble the propeller in accordance with McCauley Service Manual No. 720415, or later Federal Aviation Administration approved revision(s).
(b) All propellers listed above, which were modified by (U) - Univair Aircraft Corporation.
(1) Within 1200 hours time in service since last rework by Univair, or within two years, whichever comes first after the effective date of this AD, disassemble the propeller and inspect the blade actuating pins, washers and ferrules for proper conformity and installation in accordance with McCauley Service Manual No. 720415, Chapter I, or later Federal Aviation Administration approved revision(s).
(2) Prior to further flight, replace any improper blade actuating pins, washers and repair or replace the ferrules as necessary, and reassemble the propeller in accordance with McCauley Service Manual No. 720415, or later Federal Aviation Administration approved revision(s).
(c) When the above propellers are released for service, compliance with this Airworthiness Directive shall be noted in the Aircraft's Records.
(d) The responsible propeller repair station will notify the Federal Aviation Administration, Chief, Engineering and Manufacturing Branch, AGL-210, 2300 East Devon Avenue, Des Plaines, Illinois 60018, by certified mail about the results of these inspections. The disposition of the affected propeller(s) including the blade and hub serial numbers of the propellers (as received, and where applicable, as returned to service) must be reported. (Reporting approved by the Office of Management and Budget under OMB No. 04-R0174.)
The Manufacturer's specifications and procedures identified in this Directive are incorporated herein and made part hereof pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552(a)(1). All persons affected by the directive who have not already received these documents from the manufacturer, may obtain copies upon request to McCauley Accessory Division, Cessna Aircraft Corporation, Box 7, Roosevelt Station, Dayton, Ohio 45417. These documents may also be examined at the Great Lakes Regional Office, 2300 East Devon Avenue, Des Plaines, Illinois 60018, and at FAA Headquarters, 800 Independence Avenue, S.W., Washington, D.C. 20591. A historical file on this airworthiness directive which includes incorporated material in full is maintained by the FAA at its headquarters in Washington, D.C., and the Great Lakes Region.
Amendment 39-2994 replaces AD 76-19-04.
This amendment becomes effective August 9, 1977.
