Abstract
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain Raytheon Aircraft Company (Raytheon) 90, 100, and 200 series airplanes. This AD requires you to inspect the forward side of the aft pressure bulkhead for scoring damage and repair, if necessary. This AD is the result of reports of the aft pressure bulkhead being damaged by scoring during manufacture. The actions specified by this AD are intended to detect and correct damage to the aft pressure bulkhead of the fuselage. Such damage could lead to fatigue failure of the bulkhead.
