1 of 11 SERVICE BULLETIN MANDATORY SB 28-4039, REV. 1 Issued: August, 2010 Revised: October, 2011 The export of these commodities, technology or software are subject to the U.S. Export Administration Regulations. Diversion contrary to U.S. law is prohibited. For guidance on export control requirements, contact the Commerce Department's Bureau of Export Administration at http://www.bis.doc.gov. Hawker Beechcraft Corporation (HBC) issues Service Information for the benefit of owners and fixed base operators in the form of two classes of Service Bulletins. The first class, Mandatory Service Bulletins (red border) includes changes, inspection and modifications that could affect safety or crashworthiness. HBC also issues Service Bulletins with no red border which are designated as either recommended or optional in the compliance section within the bulletin. In the case of recommended Service Bulletins, HBC feels the changes, modifications, improvements or inspections will benefit the owner/operator and although highly recommended, Recommended Service Bulletins are not considered mandatory at the time of issuance. In the case of Optional Service Bulletins, compliance with the changes, modifications, improvements or inspections is at the owner/operator's discretion. Both classes are available on the web at http://pubs.hawkerbeechcraft.com and mailed to: (a) Owners of record on the FAA Aircraft Registration Branch List and the HBC Safety of Flight Information (SOFI) List. (b) Those having a publications subscription. Information on Safety of Flight Information (SOFI) or subscription can be obtained through the Hawker Beechcraft Corporation Technical Manual Distribution Center (TMDC). As Mandatory Service Bulletins and Service Bulletins are issued, the Service Bulletin Master Index will be updated and available online at http://pubs.hawkerbeechcraft.com. Warranty will be allowed only when specifically defined in the Service Bulletin and in accordance with HBC Warranty Policy. Unless otherwise designated, HBC Mandatory Service Bulletins, Service Bulletins and HBC Kits are approved for installation on HBC airplanes in original or HBC modified configurations only. HBC Mandatory Service Bulletins, Service Bulletins and Kits may not be compatible with airplanes modified by STC installations or modifications other than HBC approved kits. SYNOPSIS OF CHANGE This Service Bulletin has been revised to clarify the quantity and location of the fuel hose clamps within the outboard section of each wing. Figure 3 was replaced and Figures 4 and 5 were added to illustrate the possible component configurations. If the original issue of this Service Bulletin has been complied with, then no further action is required. Relevant technical changes are marked with change bars in the outside margins. 1. Planning Information A. Effectivity (1) Airplanes Model 58 Baron, Serials TH-1931 through TH-2124; Model G58 Baron, Serials TH-2125 through TH-2281, TH-2283 and TH-2284. If you are no longer in possession of the airplane, please forward this information to the present owner. (2) Spares Not applicable. B. Reason This Service Bulletin is being issued to address a quality escape regarding the fuel hose clamps located within the outboard sections of both wings. Clamps may have been installed during manufacturing that have a larger inside diameter than is required for the supported fuel hoses. An oversized or deformed clamp does not close around the hose uniformly, creating the possibility of fuel leakage and a potential fire hazard.
