Weight Limits
The maximum takeoff weight for the Beechcraft 23 Musketeer is 2,400 lbs. This includes the weight of the aircraft, fuel, passengers, and cargo. It is essential to ensure that the total weight does not exceed this limit to maintain safe flight operations.
Center of Gravity (CG) Limits
The center of gravity limits for the Beechcraft 23 Musketeer are between 34.0 inches and 38.0 inches from the datum. Pilots must ensure that the CG is within these limits to ensure stability and control during flight.
Weight and Balance Calculation Procedures
To calculate the weight and balance, pilots should first determine the weight of the aircraft, including all occupants and cargo. Next, they must calculate the moment by multiplying the weight of each item by its arm (distance from the datum). The total weight and total moment are then used to find the CG.
Safety notes
- Ensure total weight does not exceed maximum limits.
- Verify center of gravity is within specified limits before flight.

to come off and caused a loss of engine oil. This experience has dictated the need for an improvement of the strength of the attachment. The length of the screw has been increased to allow the part to yield over a much longer length so as to significantly reduce stress concentrations. Affected propellers in service that have cylinders attached as shown in Fig. I-A shall have attachment changed as shown in Figure I-B (8 long screws and tubes plus ring). This work can be accomplished by an A & P mechanic without removing propeller from aircraft. 1. Remove spinner shell in accordance with aircraft manufacturer's instructions. 2. Remove the (8) screws and washers that attach cylinder as shown in Figure I-A. It is not necessary to remove cylinder from hub. 3. Attach cylinder as shown in Figure I-B. Install screws with 30 to 36 pound-inches torque use a torque wrench. Lockwire screws with .032 inch diameter corrosion resistant steel. - NOTE Sufficient parts for one propeller, excepting lockwire, are available from McCauley in a kit, part number PL-4388 (contains (8) A-1635-70 screws and B-4354 tubes and a B-4342 ring). 4. Replace spinner shell. COMPLIANCE: Accomplish corrective action within the next 100 hours of service, preferably at next 100 hour aircraft inspection. An entry indicating bulletin compliance shall be made in aircraft and engine/propeller log books. (Page 1 of 4) S.B. No. 92 Page (2) of (4) DETERMINATION OF AFFECTED PROPELLERS: The propeller hub has a model designation number and serial number impression stamped on side of hub of two-blade models, and on the outer diameter of front (cylinder end) cylind ical boss of three-blade models (located between blade sockets). The hub model and serial number should also be listed in the engine/ propeller log book, but the hub model may be incomplete and not include change letter (example: D2A34C58-B may be listed as D2A34C58). Table I indicates the specific propeller hub models that are affected and the hub serial numbers which may be affected, while Table II indicates the aircraft on which they may be found. If the aircraft records indicate that an affected type propeller model is installed and the serial number is in the affected range, the spinner shell should be removed to see if cylinder attachment is as shown in Figure I-A and, if so, corrective action accomplished. NOTE: This bulletin does not supersede the overhaul action requirements of Service Bulletin No. 87 dated 6 November 1970 or Revision 87-1 dated 21, April 1971.

SUBJECT: Counterweight Attachment Improvement PROPELLER MODEL AFFECTED: Two-Blade Full Feathering Propellers Model 2AF36C39, D2AF36C48, D2AF34C52, 2AF34C55 and 2AF36C89 Which Incorporate Counterweight Assemblies That Have A-3372 Brackets Across The Counterweight Arms And Have Brackets And Weights Attached With (4) Socket Head Cap Screws. AIRCRAFT MODEL AFFECTED: Beech 95-55, -A55, and B55%; And Cessna 310C Through I. CONDITION: Several counterweight or attachment failures have been experienced which dictates a need for improvement. CORRECTION: The screws that attach brackets and weights to counterweight arm are to be replaced by bolts, which will pass completely through from one side of weights, brackets and arm to the other side. This change will effect the type and amount of weights installed. Table I-A attached is a listing of parts required for the improved attachment and indicates the quantity required for each propeller assembly. Figures No. 1-3 attached indicate how parts are installed with respect to each other. For reference, Table I-B attached is a listing of previous attachment parts which have now been superseded. COMPLIANCE: Accomplish corrective action whenever propeller is submitted for servicing of any kind (overhaul, repair, reconditioning, etc.), regardless of the number of hours of service. PROCEDURE: If propeller is being serviced for a condition that does not require re-balance, note the type, number and location of balance weights to permit reinstalla- tion in same location. Remove counterweights and attaching parts (see Table I-A). 2. Use a drill press (do not use hand held drill) to accomplish the following: a. Open up the two #2310-32 threaded holes in each half of the D-1945 or D-3156 counterweights to .307-.317 inches diameter through. b. Open up the two .200-.215 inch diameter holes in the A-2881-1 or A-2331 weights to .260-.275 through, which will convert them to an A-3331-2 or A-3330 part number respectively. - c. Open up the four .200 .215 inch diameter holes in the A-3372 brackets to .276- .291 through, which will convert them to an A-3372-A part number. 3. Deburr all drilled holes. Clean (strip) and cadmium plate the modified counterweights, weights and brackets. 4. Refer to Table I-A and note that A-3331-2 weights required for all models and A-3330 McCauley S.B. 93 Page 2 of 6 weights for 2AF34C55 and 2AF36C89 are obtained by reworking A-2881-1 and A-2331. However, new A-3330 weights must be obtained for D2AF36C48 and D2AF34C52 since no A-2331 weights were previously used. New A-2513-55, -56 and -57 bolts must be obtained for all models. 5. Disassemble and reassemble propeller as required by Service Manual No. 630901 to accomplish overhaul or required servicing. Install counterweight onto ferrule as required by manual (Para. 2-321, Chap. I, Sect. III, Pgs. 35 & 36). Assemble modified counterweight parts as follows (see Table I-A and Figs. No. 1, 2 and 3). a. Install 2 brackets (A-3372-A) on each pair of counterweight halves, so that they overlap at sides, one from top and one from below on opposite side, with bracket holes aligned with through-holes in counterweight arms. Full-width chamfered end of bracket MUST be at very end of arm, farthest from hub. Locate weights (A-3330 and A-3331-2) on each side of bracket and attach with bolts (A-2513-55, 56 or 57), washers (A-1638-15) and nuts (A-1639-14). Center weights on side of arm and hold in place until tightening of bolts is sufficient to prevent movement. bolts with 75 to 85 pound-inches torque. CAUTION Attach brackets and weights with two A-1638-15 washers under the head of each A-2513-55, 56 or 57 bolt, but if tolerance build up of parts does not permit end of bolt to protrude past the end of nut by at least 1/32 inch, remove a washer and repeat procedure until it does. Tighten b. Recheck torque of counterweight-to-ferrule attaching bolts (A-2513-1 and -2) after weights and brackets have been attached and their attachment bolts are torqued. If re-tightening is required, recheck torque of weight and bracket bolts. Repeat procedure until all bolts are properly torqued. 6. Should it be necessary to replace a D-1945 or D-3156 counterweight, obtain replace- ment as specified in Service Bulletin No. 83. NEW AND OBSOLETE PARTS: 1. A-3331-2 and A-3330 weights, A-1638-15 washers and A-1639–14 nuts have been used previously and should be a stock item. 2. A-2513-55, -56, and -57 bolts are new items and should be promptly ordered. 3. A-2881-1 weights and A-3372 brackets are now obsolete and no longer available. Those in stock may be reworked into A-3331-2 weights or A-3372-A brackets, respectively. A-3372-A brackets are now available. 4. A-2331 weights are still required for other models and are available. 5. A-1635-52 and -61 screws are now obsolete and no longer available. NOTE: The service manuals specify that all steel parts shall be inspected by magnetic particle process, Specification MIL-I-6868; all aluminum alloy parts by fluorescent penetrant method, Specification MIL-1-6866. It is necessary to reiterate this fact and note that the counterweights and attaching parts must be magnetic particle inspected whenever propeller is overhauled.

ROOSEVELT STA • DAYTON, OHIO 45417 Cable Address: McCauley SERVICE BULLETIN NO. 93-1 DOA APPROVED 30 JUNE 1971 NECESSARY AND REQUIRED ACTION (This Bulletin Replaces Service Bulletin No. 56 Dated 16 March 1964) TO: Beech Aircraft Corporation, Cessna Aircraft Company, FAA Approved Propeller Repair Stations, and McCauley Distributors. SUBJECT: Revision to Service Bulletin No. 93 dated 21 April 1971. CONDITION: 1. It was not previously indicated that Service Bulletin No. 56 dated 16 March 1964 was to be replaced. This bulletin covered 2AF34C55 model series. 2. Previously it was assumed that all 2AF34C55 model propellers would have been serviced for Bulletin No. 56 compliance, which should be the case but may not be. Further, the Table 2-A listed only one previous (obsolete) configuration of D-3156 counterweights, weights and brackets, and attaching parts for the 2AF34C55 propellers. 3. Several stations have inquired about the necessity of magnetic particle process inspection for counterweights and A-2513-1 and -2 attaching bolts. This is required. Some failures were undoubtedly caused by the omission of such inspection in the past. 4. Information was not included earlier to indicate the previous bulletins that will require compliance at the same time as Service Bulletin No. 93. CORRECTION: 1. For reference, mark file copies of Bulletin 56 to indicate replacement by Bulletin 93. The PL-3376 Counterweight Improvement Kit previously supplied for Bulletin 56 is obsolete and no longer available. Obtain parts listed in Table I-A, Bull- etin 93. All 2AF34C55 models must have bolts which pass completely through from one side of weights or weight/bracket combinations and counterweight arm to the other side. 2. The following table shows the previous (now obsolete) weight and bracket configurations for the 2AF34C55 propellers that may be encountered and which must be changed to config- uration shown in Table I-A. 2AF34C55 Propeller With D-3156 Counterweight Original Configuration Weights & Brackets A-2881-1 Weight (12) A-2331 Weight A-3372 Bracket ( 4 ) None Weights And Brackets-To-Counterweights Attaching Parts A-1635-29 Screw A-1635-52 Screw A-1635-61 Screw ( 8) None None 1st Production Change & Bulletin No. 56 Change 2nd Production Change * (8) None (4) (4) (4) (4) None None (8) None None (8) * The 2nd production change is that listed in Table 2-A of subject bulletin and in Table II of Service Bulletin No. 83. WORLD S LARGEST MANUFACTURER OF METAL PROPELLERS FOR BUSINESS AND PLEASURE AIRCRAFT McCauley S.B. 93-1 Page 2 of 2 3. Use a pen to add a numeral "1" for first paragraph under "PROCEDURE" in subject bulletin and change last sentence in first step to read as follows: "Remove counter- weights and associated parts - inspect counterweights and A-2513-1 and -2 attaching bolts by magnetic particle process (Spec. MIL-I-6868) and reject any cracked parts replace A-1639-6 nuts, do not reuse." 4. NOTE: When propellers are received for any servicing that requires disassembly, overhaul, repair, or for compliance with Bulletin No. 93, compliance with previous bulletins will also be required as follows: a. Service Bulletin No. 88 which affects D2AF34C52 and 2AF34C55 propellers and requires hub replacement or rework. b. Service Bulletin No. 84 which affects 2AF34C55 propellers and requires a change in the cylinder attachment screw. c. Service Bulletin No. 83 may affect all the models that are affected by Bulletin No. 93 (C39, C48, C52, C55 and C89) if it is necessary to replace counterweights and repair station does not have any old style in stock. d. Service Bulletin No. 80 which affects all models (C39, C48, C52, C55 and C89) and requires the use of a specific type sealant and assembly operations at blade-ferrule and hub-lock ring-retention nut junctions. e. Service Bulletin No. 62 which affects all models (C39, C48, C52, C55 and C89) and requires a blade actuating pin change.

SUBJECT: Supplimental Information Applicable to Service Bulletin No. 93 dated 21 April 1971, and Service Bulletin 93-1 dated 30 June 1971. CONDITION: An FAA Airworthiness Directive will be issued on the 2AF34C55 Propeller, which is covered in Service Bulletin No. 93. It will require the counterweight attachment improvement to be accomplished within a specified number of service hours. The general word description for the affected propeller models was sufficient for normal bulletin compliance, but a specific model and serial number affectivity, as shown in Tables III and IV of this revision, is preferred for compliance with the Airworthiness Directive. CORRECTION: (1) At the end of the paragraph and under the caption of Propeller Model Affected on Page 1 of Service Bulletin 93 dated April 21, 1971, use a pen and add the words "See Table III and IV on Service Bulletin 93-2 for specific 2AF34C55 Models and Serial Number Affectivity". (2) The tables indicating propeller model and serial number affectivity are as follows: 2AF34C55 2AF34C55-A 2AF34C55-B 2AF34C55-C 2AF34C55-D 2AF34C55-E *NOTE: TABLE III 2AF34C55 MODELS AFFECTED 2AF34C55-F 2AF34C55-G 2AF34C55-H 2AF34C55-HM 2AF34C55-K 2AF34C55-KM 2AF34C55-L 2AF34C55-LM 2AF34C55-M 2AF34C55-J 2AF34C55-JM * 2AF34C55-N Only Not all 2AF34C55N Propeller Models are affected. new detail hubs shipped for spares and assembled in the field with old type counterweights are involved. Excepted serial numbers shown in Table IV are new propeller assemblies which contain D-4170 counterweights and are NOT affected by this bulletin.
