Single Engine (Piston) Safety Information
the required tests and inspections performed, may be differ-
ent in fabrication techniques and materials, and may be dan-
gerous when installed in an airplane.
Salvaged airplane parts, reworked parts obtained from non-
BEECHCRAFT approved sources or parts, components, or
structural assemblies, the service history of which is
unknown or cannot be authenticated, may have been sub-
jected to unacceptable stresses or temperatures or have
other hidden damage not discernible through routine visual
or usual nondestructive testing techniques. This may render
the part, component, or structural assembly, even though
originally manufactured by BEECHCRAFT, unsuitable and
unsafe for airplane use.
BEECHCRAFT expressly disclaims any responsibility for
malfunctions, failures, damage or injury caused by use of
non-BEECHCRAFT parts.
Airplanes operated for Air Taxi or other than normal opera-
tion, and airplanes operated in humid tropics, or cold and
damp climates, etc., may need more frequent inspections for
wear, corrosion and/or lack of lubrication. In these areas,
periodic inspections should be performed until the operator
can set his own inspection periods based on experience.
NOTE
The required periods do not constitute a
guarantee that the item will reach the period
without malfunction, as the aforementioned
factors cannot be controlled by the manufac-
turer.
Corrosion and its effects must be treated at the earliest pos-
sible opportunity. A clean, dry surface is virtually immune to
corrosion. Make sure that all drain holes remain unob-
structed. Protective films and sealants help to keep corro-
sive agents from contacting metallic surfaces. Corrosion
