## Abstract

This amendment revises Airworthiness Directive (AD) 94-20-04 R1, which currently requires ruddervator inspections and modifications on certain Raytheon Aircraft Company (Raytheon) Beech Models C35, D35, E35, F35, G35, H35, J35, K35, M35, N35, P35, S35, V35, V35A, and V35B airplanes. This AD maintains the actions of AD 94-20-04 R1, but makes the repetitive visual inspection of the empennage, aft fuselage, and ruddervator control system with any subsequent repair and the setting of the elevator controls, rudder and tab system controls, cable tensions, and rigging a one time action; and adds repetitive inspections of the fuselage bulkheads that were required by AD 94-20- 04. This AD is the result of the need to add a repetitive inspection of the fuselage bulkheads and change other inspections from a repetitive to a one-time action. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent structural failure of the V-tail, which could result in loss of control of the airplane.
