Beechcraft 400 Series Aeroplanes
AD/BEECH 400/14 Amdt 1  Flightcrew Seats  6/2009

Applicability:  Model 400 series aircraft, serial numbers RJ-1 through RJ-65.

                Model 400A series aircraft, serial numbers RK-1 through RK-93.
Requirement:    Action in accordance with the technical requirements of FAA AD 2009-07-02 Amdt 39-15861.

                Note:  Beechcraft Service Bulletin No. 2536 Revision 1, and Raytheon Service Bulletin SB-25-2536 Revision 2, or later FAA approved revisions, refer.
Compliance:     As specified in the Requirement document, with a revised effective date of
                4 June 2009.
                This Amendment becomes effective on 4 June 2009.
Background:     The FAA received reports of incomplete latching of the existing flight crew seat adjustment mechanism and cracked reinforcement assemblies, which could result in sudden shifting of a flight crew seat.

                Amendment 1 is issued in response to a new FAA AD, which adds to the kit listing information but no change to the technical requirement.
