Note 1: This AD applies to each airplane identified in the preceding applicability provision, regardless of whether it has been modified, altered, or repaired in the area subject to the requirements of this AD. For airplanes that have been modified, altered, or repaired so that the performance of the requirements of this AD is affected, the owner/operator must request approval for an alternative method of compliance in accordance with paragraph (b) of this AD. The request should include an assessment of the effect of the modification, alteration, or repair on the unsafe condition addressed by this AD; and, if the unsafe condition has not been eliminated, the request should include specific proposed actions to address it. Compliance: Required as indicated, unless accomplished previously. To minimize the potential hazards associated with operating the airplane in severe icing conditions by providing more clearly defined procedures and limitations associated with such conditions, accomplish the following: (a) Within 30 days after the effective date of this AD, accomplish the requirements of paragraphs (a)(l) and (a)(2) of this AD. Note 2: Operators should initiate action to notify and ensure that flight crewmembers are apprised of this change. (1) Revise the FAA-approved Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) by incorporating the following into the Limitations Section of the AFM. This may be accomplished by inserting a copy of this AD in the AFM. Warning Severe icing may result from environmental conditions outside of those for which the airplane is certificated. Flight in :freezing rain, freezing drizzle, or mixed icing conditions (super cooled liquid water and ice crystals) may result in ice build-up on protected surfaces exceeding the capability of the ice protection system, or may result in ice forming aft of the protected surfaces. This ice may not be shed using the ice protection systems, and may seriously degrade the performance and controllability of the airplane. ** During flight, severe icing conditions that exceed those for which the airplane is certificated shall be determined by the following visual cues. If one or more of these visual cues exists, immediately request priority handling from Air Traffic Control to facilitate a route or an altitude change to exit the icing conditions. --Unusually extensive ice accumulation on the airframe and windshield in areas not normally observed to collect ice. --Accumulation of ice on the upper surface of the wing aft of the protected area. --Accumulation of ice on the engine nacelles and propeller spinners farther aft than normally observed. AOL 3-016 AOL 4-009 Page 6 ** Since the autopilot, when installed and operating, may mask tactile cues that indicate adverse changes in handling characteristics, use of the autopilot is prohibited when any of the visual cues specified above exist, or when unusual lateral trim requirements or autopilot trim warnings are encountered while the airplane is in icing conditions. ** All wing icing inspection lights must be operative prior to flight into known or forecast icing conditions at night. NOTE: This supersedes any relief provided by the Master Minimum Equipment List (MMEL). (2) Revise the FAA-approved AFM by incorporating the following into the Normal Procedures Section of the AFM. This may be accomplished by inserting a copy of this AD in the AFM. The Following Weather Condition May Be Conducive to Severe In-Flight Icing ** Visible rain at temperatures below O degrees Celsius ambient air temperature. ** Droplets that splash or splatter on impact at temperatures below O degrees Celsius ambient air temperature. "Procedures for Exiting the Severe Icing Environment These procedures are applicable to all flight phases from takeoff to landing. Monitor the ambient air temperature. While severe icing may form at temperatures as cold as -18 degrees Celsius, increased vigilance is warranted at temperatures around freezing with visible moisture present. If the visual cues specified in the Limitations Section of the AFM for identifying severe icing conditions are observed, accomplish the following: ** Immediately request priority handling from Air Traffic Control to facilitate a route or an altitude change to exit the severe icing conditions in order to avoid extended exposure to flight conditions more severe than those for which the airplane has been certificated. ** Avoid abrupt and excessive maneuvering that may exacerbate control difficulties. ** Do not engage the autopilot. ** If the autopilot is engaged, hold the control wheel firmly and disengage the autopilot. ** If an unusual roll response or uncommanded roll control movement is observed, reduce the angle-of-attack. ** Do not extend flaps when holding in icing conditions. Operation with flaps extended can result in a reduced wing angle-of-attack, with the possibility of ice forming on the upper surface further aft on the wing than normal, possibly aft of the protected area. ** If the flaps are extended, do not retract them until the airframe is clear of ice. ** Report these weather conditions to Air Traffic Control." (b) An alternative method of compliance or adjustment of the compliance time that provides an acceptable level of safety may be used if approved by the Manager, Los Angeles Aircraft Certification Office (ACO), FAA, Transport Airplane Directorate. The request shall be forwarded through an appropriate FAA Operations Inspector, who may add comments and then send it to the Manager, Los Angeles ACO. AOL 3-016 AOL 4-009 Page 7 Note 3: Information concerning the existence of approved alternative methods of compliance with this AD, if any, may be obtained from the Los Angeles ACO. (c) Special flight permits may be issued in accordance with sections 21.197 and 21.199 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR 21.197 and 21.199) to operate the airplane to a location where the requirements of this AD can be accomplished. (d) This amendment becomes effective on March 25, 1998. Issued in Renton, Washington, on February 6, 1998. Darrell M.

Boeing may provide type design data to its airline customers and to licensees to support the fleet when replacement parts are not available directly from Boeing in a timely manner. The process of providing type design data to Boeing's airline customers and licensees has been known as Authority To Manufacture (ATM). The ATM process does not imply that Boeing approves any parts manufactured by airline customers or licensees. Boeing may grant authorization to owners, operators, and licensees to use Boeing type design data, but Boeing does not, and cannot, grant authority to manufacture aircraft replacement parts. The United States (US) Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) grants authority to manufacture aircraft replacement parts for US type certificated aircraft (reference [a]). Reference (a) also exempts owners and operators from the requirements to produce modification or replacement parts pursuant to FAA Parts Manufacturer Approval (PMA) when maintaining or altering the owner's or operator's own type certificated aircraft (ref. FAR section 21 l.303[b][2]). Sections 91.403, 121.363, and 125.243 of the FAR place the responsibility for airworthiness of the type certificated product (aircraft, aircraft engines, propellers) on the owner or operator. Airworthiness for United States operators is defined in Public Law 103-272 as conforming to the (approved) type certificate, and being in a condition for safe operation. Boeing Provided Type Design Data: Type design data, as an element of the type certificate, is FAA-Approved. Boeing's type certificates are elements of Boeing's FAA-Approved Production Certificate (PC). Boeing produces parts in accordance with PC requirements (reference FAR Part 21, Subpart G - Production Certificates). Mere possession of Boeing type design data, including detail drawings, specifications, and other data, does not imply that Boeing approves the recipient as a supplier pursuant to Boeing's PC. The manufacture of parts using Boeing type design data, unless accomplished expressly in accordance with the requirements of Boeing's PC, is to be considered outside of Boeing's control and responsibility. Boeing assumes no responsibility for the quality, or the airworthiness of owner, operator, or licensee manufactured parts. Parts Marking: AOL 3-015 AOL4-008 AOL 6-011 AOL 7-008 AOL 8-1248 AOL9-2564 AOL90-083 AOL 10-2214 AOL 11-464 Page3 Boeing identifies parts in accordance with the provisions of its PC. FAR section 43.9 requires a maintenance record entry of the work performed, which only implies owner, operator, and licensee produced parts be identified as such. Marking requirements for parts for which a replacement time, inspection interval, or related procedure is specified in the Airworthiness Limitations section of the manufacturer's maintenance manual or Instructions for Continued Airworthiness are cited in FAR section 45.14. There is no specific regulatory requirement to mark owner, operator, or licensee manufactured parts as not manufactured by an FAA production approval holder. Once owner or operator or licensee produced parts are installed on the aircraft, they are in the stream of commerce, and if marked as if produced under an FAA-Approved production system (that is, with part numbers identical to those used in the FAA-Approved production system), might possibly be considered fraudulent (reference [a]), section 43.12). The commission by any person of an act prohibited under Section 43.12(a) is a basis for, among other things, suspending or revoking the applicable airman, or operator certificate held by that person. Owner or operator manufactured parts, for those owners or operators holding Boeing Purchase Agreement (contract) are required, by the terms of that agreement, to be marked with a part number different from the original Boeing part number to identify that the parts so produced are the product of the owner or operator, and not of Boeing.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION. 1-2. The R4D-8 and R4D-8Z aircraft are low-wing monoplanes with full cantilever wings and tail sur- faces, semi-monocoque fuselage, and retractable alight- ing gear. Aircraft 1 through 96 are designed for use as diversified personnel, cargo, or ambulance trans- ports; aircraft A through D are designed for use as staff transports. The aircraft are pov,•ered by t'\VO R-1820-80 engines which are equipped with Hamilton Standard hydromatic propellers. For graphic presen- tations of the aircraft and the aircraft stations, see figures 1-1 through 1-7. 1-3. In aircraft I through 96, accommodations are provided for a regular crew of 1 three: pilot, co-pilot, and radio operator. Folding troop benches are installed along both sides of the main cargo compartment to accommodate 35 troops. Thirty collapsible high-den- sity personnel seats can be installed in place of the folding-type troop benches. Litters can be installed as an alternate to the folding benches or personnel seats, to accommodate 27 ambulance patients ( see figure 1-H). 1-·L In aircraft A through D, the interior arrange- ment, forward of station 97, is identical to aircraft 1 through 96. Aft of station 97, a table, desk, buffet, and a lavatory are installed for staff use. On aircraft A and B, 4 divans and 4 reclining swivel chairs are also installed, aft of station 97; on aircraft C and D, 2 divans and 8 reclining swivel chairs are,installed, aft of station 97. Two bunks are installed in the aft part of the fuselage, between stations 538 and 623, for the use of 2 crew members: for interior arrangement, see figure 2-40. 1-5. The weight empty of the aircraft is approxi- mately 20,400 pounds. The design gross weight is 31,000 pounds, and the overload gross weight is 36,800 pounds. For further information, refer to the applica, ble handbook of weight and balance instructions. 1-6. AIRCRAFT BALANCE. 1-7. The forward limit of the cg travel, with the alighting gear retracted, is 7 per cent of the MAC and the aft limit is 36 per cent of the MAC.

ACCESS AND INSPECTION PROVISIONS. 1-20. INTERIOR ACCESS DOORS. (See figure 1-9.) Access doors and cover plates are provided in the in- terior structure of the aircraft to facilitate inspection, maintenance, and repair of controls, system compo- nents, and structural sections. 1-21. EXTERIOR ACCESS DOORS. (See figure 1-9.) Access doors and cover plates are provided in the ex- terior surfaces of the wing, nacelle, fuselage and em- pennage to facilitate inspection, maintenance, and general repair. 1-22. DRAIN AND VENT HOLES. (See figure 1-10.) Draining provisions are installed throughout the wing and fuselage structures for servicing the various fluid systems. Drain holes are provided in the flight control surfaces to permit the escape of condensation. Vent holes are provided for those systems requiring a supply of air for proper operation. 1-23. GROUND OPERATION. 1-24. ENGINE OPERATION. 1-25. COWL FLAPS. The cowl flaps must be fully open, regardless of outside air temperatures, during all ground operations, including starting, warm-up, ground testing, and taxiing. 1-26. PRIMING. The priming system functions as an aid in starting the engines and, when used properly, reduces the haLard of flooding. To avoid overloading a warm engine, 15 °C ( 59°F) or more, it is advisable to flick the primer switch intermittently. The actual amount of priming necessary will depend upon the engine installation, weather conditions, and air tem- peratures. Do not prime until the starter is actually cranking the engine. 1-27. EXCESSIVE PRIMING. Excessive priming will load the cylinders with raw fuel, making starting Paragraphs 1-19 through 1-32 difficult and tending to wash the oil film from the cylinder walls with the consequent danger of cylinder scoring or piston seizure. If the engine is allowed to stand for a day or more following unsuccessful at- tempts to start the engine, and if the cylinder surfaces are not protected by a fresh application of oil, rusting of piston rings and cylinder walls will frequently occur. Continuous use of the primer may cause the fuel to drain back through the intake pipes of primed cylinders and collect in the intake pipes of bottom cylinders without indication of fuel leakage from the supercharger drain valve. The drain valve will not indicate fuel collection forward of the supercharger impeller, or in the lower intake pipes, since it drains only from the area of the impeller inlet in the rear supercharger housing. 1-28. INSUFFICIENT PRIMING. Insufficient prim- ing during the starting operation is usually indicated by backfiring, with attendant fire hazards. Cold- weather starting requires more priming and a slightly greater throttle opening than would be required when starting in moderate or warm weather. 1-29. BACKFIRING. When an engine backfires, in- dicating too lean a mixture, it is recommended that the priming system be used to assist in keeping the engine running until fuel from the carburetor reaches all cylinders. In the event of backfiring, do not shut down, but continue cranking with the starter until backfiring ceases and the engine is running. 1-30. OVER-RICH MIXTURE. An engine receiving too rich a mixture to continue running during a start, can be revived by momentarily moving the mixture control to the IDLE CUT-OFF position. This will lean out the mixture, after which the mixture control should be returned to the AUTO-RICH or FULL-RICH position. 1-31. FUEL BOOSTER PUMPS. The engine must be started with the booster pumps ON. Refer to the applicable handbook of flight operating instructions for recommended use. 1-32. FUEL OVERLOADING. Overloading of a warm engine may be indicated by a dischar&e of fuel from the drain in the lower part of the supercharger. In this case, do not attempt to start the engine until fuel has ceased to flow from the drain. Pull the pro- peller through 6 to 8 revolutions ( 18 to 24 blades) using the starter, in the direction of rotation, with the ignition OFF, the mixture control in IDLE CUT-OFF, and the throttle wide open. Then repeat the starting procedure. The most frequent cause of overloading is failure to return the mixture control to IDLE CUT- OFF position immediately after a false start. Note The mixture control must not be moved out of the IDLE CUT-OFF position before the en- gine starts firing from fuel used in priming.

Overloading of a cold engine is not necessarily indicated by a discharge of fuel from the supercharger drain, but rather by the presence of liquid fuel, or mist, in the exhaust. A cold engine can be cleared by using the same procedure as that given for a warm engine. 1-34. IDLING. Prolonged idling at low rpm is per- missible and will not cause fouling of the spark plugs, providing that the idling fuel-air mixture is at, or near, "best power." If the mixture is too rich, fouling of the plugs will result at low rpm. The rpm for idle mixture adjustment, with cylinder head temperature at 150°C ( 302°F) minimum during adjustment, should be 700 (± 50) rpm. 18 Type of Door Atta,hi11r Parts Tool Used Non stress Camloc Fastener Screw Driver Nonstress Camloc Fastener Screw Driver Nonstress Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver Nonstress Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver J\,onstress Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver Nonstress Camloc fastener Screw Driver Nonstress Spring Latch Hand Operated Nonstre:,s Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver Stress Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver Strc,ss Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver J\onstress Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver Stress Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver Stress Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver Strt:ss Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver Nonstress Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver Nonstress Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver Nonstress Spring Latch Hand Operated Nonstress Spring Latch Hand Operated Nonstress Spring Latch Hand Operated Nonstress Spring Latch Hand Operated Nonstress Spring Latch Hand Operated Stress Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver Stress Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver Stress Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver Stress Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver Nonstress Spring Latch Hand Operated Stress Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver Nonsttess Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver Nonstress Screw Screw Driver Nonstress Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver Nonstress Dzus Fastener Screw Driver Nonstress Camloc Fastener Screw Driver Nonstress Camloc Fastener Screw Driver Nonstress Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver Nonstress Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver Stress Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver Stress Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver Stress Screw Reed & Prince Screw Driver 1-35. PISTON HYDRAULICKING. If the engine has not been operated for 2 hours or longer, it is essential that the propeller be pulled through at least 4 revolutions ( 12 blades) by the starter, prior to an engine start, in order to make certain that there is no fuel or oil present in the lower cylinders. Oil and fuel are incompressible and their presence in the lower cylinders might result in a bent rod, a cracked piston, or a damaged crankshaft when the engine is started. If, when the propeller is pulled through, it seizes or binds, do not attempt to force it on around. Remove the spark plugs from the lower cylinders and drain the residual fluid. Then rotate the propeller before again installing the spark plugs. AN 01-40NK-2 figure 1-10.

FUEL SYSTEM MANAGEMENT. The fuel system consists of the following units: Center section tanks Outer wing tanks Selector valves ( center section tanks) Selector valves ( outer wing tanks) Strainers Electric fuel booster pumps Firewall shutoff valves Engine-driven fuel pumps Priming system 1-37. The ·fuel system is basically designed so that each engine is provided with an independent fuel supply system, including its own fuel tanks, although fuel from any of the tanks may be directed to either of the engines. Transfer of fuel between tanks is not possible. Note Fuel from the front tanks should be used for all ground operations, if all of the tanks are full; if any tank is not full, fuel from the tanks containing the most fuel should be used. Do not use the outer wing tanks for ground operations. 1-38. The inner wing tank fuel selector dials are di- vided into five positions as follows: LEFT FRONT RIGHT FRONT LEFT REAR RIGHT REAR OFF 1-39. The outer wing tank fuel selector dials are di- vided into three positions as follows: LEFT TANK RIGHT TANK OFF 1-40. Through the operation of the· selector valves in any of the above positions, fuel can be supplied to either or both of the engines from any of the inner or outer wing tanks. 1-41. FUEL BOOSTER PUMP CHECK. Before start- ing the engines, check the operation of both electric fuel booster pumps as follows: a. Place the left mixture control in IDLE CUT-OFF position. b. Place the left fuel tank selector valve in position to select the desired tank. c. Place the booster pump switch for the left booster pump in the ON position. The fuel pressure indica- tor for the left engine should read 21 ( + %) psi. d. Repeat steps a, b, and c for the right fuel booster pump. 20 1-42. FUEL TANK SELECTOR VALVE CHECK. With the engines running, check the selector valves to insure unrestricted flow through all pipes and valves in the system. 1-43. ENGINE STARTING PROCEDURE. For en- gine starting procedure, see the applicable handbook of flight operating instructions. 1-44. PROPELLER FEATHERING CHECKS. 1-45. PROPELLER FEATHERING PROCEDURE FOR GROUND OPERATION. For complete informa- tion on propeller feathering or engine isolation pro- cedures, refer to the applicable handbook of flight operating instructions. During ground check of the propeller feathering system, it is not required to shut down the engine. To make the ground check, momen- tarily depress the feathering button, located on the pilot's or co-pilot's overhead electrical panels, until a drop of 300 to 400 rpm is attained. Then pull the feathering button out and allow the propeller to return to the original rpm setting. 1-46. GROUND FIRE CONTROL. Ground fire ex- tinguishing equipment should be spotted in the im- mediate vicinity of the aircraft during ground opera- tions. Use the ground fire extinguishing equipment, if possible, rather than the aircraft's fire extinguishing system. Access holes, covered with spring-loaded doors, are located in the outboard side of each nacelle. Insert the CO:! ground fire equipment horn by pushing it against the access door. Two hand fire extinguishers are provided, one on the cockpit floor aft of the co-pilot's seat, and one in the cabin area, just forward of the main cargo door. The engine compartments and the com- bustion heater compartment fire extinguishing systems are controlled from a panel on the floor between the pilot's and co-pilot's seats. For fire extinguishing sys- tem operating procedures, see the applicable hand- book of flight operating instructions. 1-47. ENGINE SECTION FIRE. Each engine com- partment is divided into two areas, or fire zones. Zone 1 is the area forward of the inner ring and Zone 2 is the area between the inner ring and the firewall. A fire detector system is installed in each zone, but only Zone 2 is protected by CO:!. Detectors located in both zones of an engine compartment are connected to a warning light located on the pilot's side of the main instrument panel; this light will illuminate in the event of a fire. 1-48. COMBUSTION HEATER COMPARTMENT FIRE. A fire detector system is provided in the com- bustion heater compartment. Detectors, which are lo- cated in the heater ducting and throughout the com- partment, are connected to a warning light on the left overhead electrical panel. The light will be illuminated in the event of a fire. 1-49. FIRE WARNING CIRCUIT TEST SWITCHES. The fire detector circuits can be electrically tested for. normal circuit continuity prior to flight by means
