To the right of this text is a list of the effected Aircraft Models and according serial numbers. This AD was prompted by information provided by Textron.

The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent such fatigue cracks. The unsafe condition, if not addressed, could result in failure of the forward lower wing fitting, which could lead to wing separation and loss of airplane control. Please read these important documents. If you have questions on this AD and would like to discuss please give us a call.
