Attach maintenance warning tags to the battery and external power receptacle that have "DO NOT CONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER - MAINTENANCE IN PROGRESS" written on them. 2. Remove the pilot and co-pilot seats if necessary. (Refer to the applicable Model Service or Maintenance Manual.) 3. Get access to all surfaces of the carry-thru spar by removing panels, upholstery, headliner, sealant, and installed utility or oxygen systems as necessary. (Refer to the applicable Model Service or Maintenance Manual.) 4. Remove foam from bottom of carry-thru spar as applicable. A. Clean all adhesive residue from the carry-thru spar with a non-metallic scraper tool. 5. Clean grime or debris from all interior surfaces of the carry-thru spar with special emphasis on lower cap surface. Single Engine SERVICE LETTER MANDATORY SEL-57-08 6. (Refer to Figure 1, Sheets 1-5.) Do a detailed visual inspection of the carry-thru spar with a 10X magnification lens looking for corrosion, nicks, gouges, drill starts, or hardware damage and must include: 1. The visible surfaces of the Upper cap. 2. The Spar web (include cap to web radius). 3. The Lower cap (include upper and lower surface and cap edge). NOTE: The detailed visual inspection should pay particular attention to locations where air ducts, support wires, and upholstery pads contact the lower spar structure as well as lower spar cap lower surface "Kick Area" between BL 10.0 and BL 12.5. (Refer to the figure titled Spar Dimensions after Table 1.) A. (Refer to Figure 1, Sheets 4 and 5.) If stress corrosion cracking or exfoliation corrosion (flaking) of the spar is found, contact Textron Aviation Team Structures for evaluation. (Refer to the Carry-Thru Spar Inspection Report for contact information.) B. If corrosion is found on the carry-thru spar, the area can be reworked as follows: NOTE: If previous evidence of blending can be determined or is recorded in the aircraft log book for the same location corrosion has been found, contact Textron Aviation Structures. (1) Use 180 grit or finer aluminum oxide abrasive paper, cloth or pads to carefully remove corrosion and blend that area locally around the affected region. (2) Make sure to only remove the minimum material necessary to blend the corroded surface with the surrounding surface. (3) Maintain a minimum of 20:1 blend to depth ratio. (4) Leave no sharp edges after blending. (5) Finish with a 320 grit or finer grained aluminum oxide sandpaper to 63 micro RA or smoother. NOTE: When 320 grit is properly used, it will produce a 63 micro RA surface finish. (6) Use a vacuum to remove dust. (7) Use a clean cloth wet with isopropyl alcohol to clean the surface. (8) Measure the depth of the blended area mechanically; such as with a straight edge and feeler gauge or a depth gauge micrometer. (a) If material removed is greater than what is listed in the TABLE 1 for the specific spar feature, contact Textron Aviation Team Structures with the dimension of blended area for evaluation. (Refer to the Carry-Thru Spar Inspection Report for contact information.) (b) If material removed is less than 0.010 inch for the specific spar feature in TABLE 1, go to Step 8. (c) If material removed is greater than 0.010 but less than what is listed in TABLE 1 for the specific spar feature, complete the eddy current inspection of the blended areas and the Kick Area from buttock line 10.0 thru 12.5 inch (whether there is or is not presence of corrosion in the Kick Area), go to Step 7.

If no corrosion is found on the carry-thru spar but previous evidence of blending can be determined or is recorded in the aircraft log book, contact Textron Aviation Structures. D. If no corrosion is found on the carry-thru spar, go to Step 8. 7. (Refer to Figure 1, View A-A.) (If corrosion was found and blended.) Do an eddy current inspection of the blended area as follows: (Refer to 2A-13-01, Nondestructive Inspection Methods and Requirements in the appropriate Model Service or Maintenance Manual.) A. Plan out the inspection process to cover the items listed as follows: • If the eddy current inspection is performed by qualified personnel that are not representing an FAA Certified Repair Station, an A&P Mechanic may supervise the inspection and make the appropriate logbook entry. • Technician must be at least Level 2 certified. • Eddy current inspection will cover the carry-thru spar where corrosion was blended and extend 1 Inch beyond the blended area and will also cover the lower cap spar Kick Area from Buttock Line 10.0 thru 12.5. • Eddy current inspection will be with a 0.125 Inch probe. • Technician should use an inspection approach that ensures the entire blended surface is inspected without gaps and inspection area should extend 1 Inch beyond the blended area in all directions. • Limit the inspection area to no wider than 4 square inches at a time, depending on size of blended area. Once an area is complete, move to any additional rework location and repeat the eddy current inspection. • Inspect one section at time and overlap each section by 0.25 Inch overlap between each section and identify when each section is complete. • Identify when each section is complete to help keep track of progress. B. Review the General Requirements and Eddy Current Inspection sections of 2A-13-01 Nondestructive Inspection Methods and Requirements. C. Calibrate the eddy current instrument - Impedance Plane. (Refer to 2A-13-01, Nondestructive Inspection Methods and Requirements, Section 2. Eddy Current Inspection.) SEL-57-08 November 1, 2019 Page 7 SEL-57-08 Page 8 November 1, 2019 Single Engine SERVICE LETTER MANDATORY SEL-57-08 D. Eddy current scan the blended surface with an 0.125 Inch diameter surface pencil probe at 200 kHz. • Scan direction must be with an inboard to outboard direction. • Use of a non-metallic straight edge as a guide will help ensure there is not a fore-aft motion of the probe. • Probe one small section of only a couple of inches at a time, recommend no wider than 4 Inches. • Move the probe in 0.125 Iinch increments. • Overlap each section by 0.25 Inch. • Extend 1 Inch beyond the blended area. (1) Look for a sharp response of 10-percent screen height or more which may indicate corrosion or fatigue cracking or both. E. If you find one or more cracks, further flight is NOT permitted. You must replace the carry-thru spar before further flight. 8. Provide the results of the detailed visual and eddy current inspections to Textron Aviation, Team Structures. Use the Carry-Thru Spar Inspection Report form and pictures as applicable. Telephone number and email address are provided on the form. NOTE: The Carry-Thru Spar Inspection Report form must be sent to Textron Aviation Team Structures to report all conditions, cracks, corrosion, or no cracks, no corrosion. 9. Apply protective coatings to the carry-thru spar as follows: NOTE: The steps that follow are for the carry-thru spar located inside the fuselage. Rework can be from the removal and/or blending of corrosion, nicks, gouges, drill starts, or hardware damage, anything that would result in the exposure of bare metal by removal of the coatings. A. If there has been rework and the carry-thru spar was not entirely primed before the inspection: (1) Wipe the entire surface with clean wiping cloths wet with isopropyl alcohol. (a) Let the surface dry. (2) Apply Conversion coating (Bonderite M-CR 600RTU) to the entire carry-thru spar surface following the manufacture directions for application and dry time. (3) Apply a epoxy primer (primer coat) to the entire surface following the manufacture directions for application and dry time. (4) Go to Step 10. B. If there has been rework and the carry-thru spar was entirely primed before the inspection: (1) Wipe the areas with bare metal surface with clean wiping cloths wet with isopropyl alcohol. (a) Let the parts dry. (2) Apply Chemical Film Treatment (Alodine 1132) to the areas with bare metal surface following the manufacture directions for application and dry time. (3) Apply a epoxy primer (primer coat) to the bare metal surface following the manufacture directions for application and dry time. (4) Go to Step 10. C. If there was not rework and the carry-thru spar was not entirely primed before the inspection: (1) Wipe the entire surface with clean wiping cloths wet with isopropyl alcohol. (a) Let the surface dry. (2) Apply Conversion coating (Bonderite M-CR 600RTU) to the entire surface following the manufacture directions for application and dry time. (3) Apply a epoxy primer (primer coat) to the entire surface following the manufacture directions for application and dry time. Single Engine SERVICE LETTER MANDATORY SEL-57-08 (4) Go to Step 10. D. If there was not rework and the carry-thru spar was entirely primed before the inspection: (1) Go to Step 10. 10. Apply Corrosion Inhibiting Compound (CIC) to the entire surface of the carry-thru spar that is accessible in the fuselage as follows: (Refer to SEL-51-01 Standard Practices - Structures - Use of Corrosion Inhibiting Compounds.) NOTE: SEL-51-01 is a resource that provides additional detailed information about the application process of CIC such as equipment, facility, cleaning, masking, and application processes. A. Mask areas around the carry-thru spar areas to prevent over spray of the CIC. B. Spray aerosol with extension tube to minimize over spray. C. Apply the CIC in one full wet coat. D. Some sag/run is acceptable. A spot of significant sag/run needs to be cleaned by MPK (methyl propyl ketone) wiping and the CIC shall be reapplied. E. Wet film thickness of CIC is approximately 1 to 2 mils for Cor-Ban 23. NOTE: The coating should be tack-free after two to three hours. F. After the CIC coating is tack-free, remove the masking from around the application area. G. Let the CIC coating cure with a minimum cure temperature no less than 50 degrees F. 11. Install removed utility systems, oxygen systems, headliner and upholstery that was removed to access the carry-thru spar. (Refer to the applicable Model Service or Maintenance Manual.) NOTE: The installation of the foam padding to the bottom of the carry-thru spar is optional however; the headliner final fit may differ if the foam padding is not installed. 12. Install the pilot and co-pilot seats if removed. (Refer to the applicable Model Service or Maintenance Manual.) 13. Remove the maintenance warning tags and connect the airplane battery. 14. Make an entry in the airplane logbook that states compliance and method of compliance with this service document.
