STARSHIP 1 MAINTENANCE MANUAL Page 2 Oct 31/06 INTRODUCTION WARNING: Use only parts obtained from sources approved by Raytheon Aircraft Company, in connection with the maintenance and repair of Raytheon Aircraft Company airplanes. Genuine Raytheon Aircraft Company parts are produced and inspected under rigorous procedures to insure airworthiness and suitability for use in Raytheon Aircraft Company airplane applications. Parts purchased from sources other than those approved by Raytheon Aircraft Company, even though outwardly identical in appearance, may not have the required tests and inspections performed, may be different in fabrication techniques and materials, and may be dangerous when installed in an airplane. Salvaged airplane parts, reworked parts obtained from sources not approved by the Raytheon Aircraft Company or parts, components or structural assemblies, the service history of which is unknown or cannot be authenticated, may have been subjected to unacceptable stresses or temperatures or have other hidden damage, not discernible through routine visual or usual nondestructive testing techniques. This may render the part, component or structural assembly, even though originally manufactured by the Raytheon Aircraft Company, unsuitable and unsafe for airplane use. Raytheon Aircraft Company expressly disclaims any responsibility for malfunctions, failures, damage or injury caused by use of parts not approved by the Raytheon Aircraft Company. Any maintenance requiring the disconnection and reconnection of flight control cables, plumbing, electrical connectors or wiring requires identification of each side of the component being disconnected to facilitate correct reassembly. At or prior to disassembly, components should be color coded, tagged or properly identified in a way that it will be obvious how to correctly reconnect the components. After reconnection of any component, remove all identification tags. Check all associated systems for correct function prior to returning the airplane to service. B. Correspondence If a question should arise concerning the care of your airplane, it is important to include the airplane serial number in any correspondence. The serial number appears on the model designation placard. Refer to Chapter 11 for placard location. C.

ATA Subject Matter Assignment The contents of this manual are organized into four levels. The four levels are: INTRODUCTION Page 5 Oct 31/06 STARSHIP 1 MAINTENANCE MANUAL (1) Group These are the primary divisions of the manual that enable broad separation of content. Typical of this division is the separation between Airframe Systems and the Power Plant. (2) System/Chapter The various groups are broken down into major systems such as Environmental Systems, Electrical Power, Landing Gear, etc. The systems are arranged more or less alphabetically rather than by precedence or importance. They are assigned a number, which becomes the first element of the standardized numbering system. Thus, the element 28 of the number 28-40-01 refers to the chapter FUEL. Everything concerning the fuel system will be covered in this chapter. (3) Subsystem/Section The major systems/chapters of an airplane are broken down into subsystems. These subsystems are identified by the second element of the standard numbering system. The element 40 of the number 28-40-01 concerns itself with the indicating section of the fuel system. (4) Unit/Subject The individual units within a subsystem/section may be identified by the third element of the standard numbering system. The element 01 of the number 28-40-01 is a subject designator. This element is assigned at the option of the manufacturer and may or may not be used. B. Application Any publication conforming to the GAMA or ATA format will use the same basic numbering system. Thus, whether the manual is a Starship 1 Maintenance Manual, or a Starship 1 Wiring Diagram Manual, the person wishing information concerning the indication portion of the fuel system, would refer to the System/Chapter Tab 28-FUEL. The table of contents in the front of this chapter will provide a list of subsystems covered in this chapter. For example, the fuel system chapter with a full index would contain: 28-00 - General 28-10 - Storage (Tanks, cells, necks, caps, instruments, etc.). 28-20 - Distribution (Fuel lines, pumps, valves, controls, etc.). 28-30 - Dump (If in-flight dumping system is installed, it would appear here). 28-40 - Indicating (Quantity, temperature, pressure, etc., does not include engine fuel flow or pressure). C. References to Procedures, Figures, Equipment and Materials A system has been developed to provide a method of allowing the user to quickly locate data referred to in the other manuals. This system provides information for both the printed manual as well as a hyperlink in electronic manuals. Here are a few examples: When the user is directed to a procedure in another manual, the text will be as follows: (refer to Chapter 6-50-00, CABIN FLOORBOARD PANELS). The procedure is found in Chapter 6-50-00, of the Maintenance Manual. STARSHIP 1 MAINTENANCE MANUAL Page 6 Oct 31/06 INTRODUCTION When the user is in a procedure and is directed to information about a tool, piece of equipment or material used, the text will be as follows: (1, Chart 2, 27-00-00), which contains a listing of all the special tools and equipment used to maintain the Starship 1 airplane. Item 1 in Chart 2 is Sealant. 4. CHAPTER/SYSTEM INDEX GUIDE TABLE The following System/Chapter, Subsystem/Section Index Guide is prepared in accordance with GAMA Specification No. 2 and ATA Specification No. 100 for use with Maintenance Manuals, Parts Catalogs and Wiring Diagram Manuals.

Ensure that all three landing gears are down and locked prior to removing the airplane from jacks. CAUTION: Jacking of an airplane for the purpose of landing gear operation inspection, servicing or maintenance, should be accomplished within an enclosed building or hangar. In the interest of safety, should it become necessary to jack the airplane in the open, wind velocity in any direction and terrain variations, must be compensated for prior to jacking the airplane. WARNING: Anytime the airplane is on the ground (whether on jacks or on the wheels), the nose and main landing gear MUST be pinned in the down and locked position. The only exceptions to this would be during landing gear operational checks, during the removal or installation of the landing gear components, and during taxiing operations prior to takeoff or after landing. When any work is being performed in the nose gear wheel well, the nose gear doors MUST be pinned in the open position. Refer to Chapters 32-10-00 and 32-20-00 for the proper lockpin installation procedures. TIME LIMITED INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS This section consists of components that are subject to a thorough inspection based on calendar time, operating hours or cycles. The inspections should be done with reference to this maintenance manual and the Starship 1 Component Maintenance Manual. When disassembly is required to accomplish these inspections, reassembly should be accomplished in accordance with applicable component manuals. Discrepancies noted during these inspections should be noted on work sheets for corrections. The first inspection must be performed not later than the recommended period. The condition of the item at the end of the first period can be used as a criterion for determining subsequent periods applicable to the individual airplane or fleet operation, provided the operator has an approved condition monitoring system. The time periods for inspections noted in this manual are based on average usage and average environmental conditions.

The time periods for the inspections noted in this schedule are based on normal usage under average environmental conditions. Airplanes operated in humid tropics, or in cold, damp climates, etc., may need more frequent inspections for wear, corrosion, lubrication, and/or lack of maintenance. Under these adverse conditions, perform periodic inspections in compliance with this guide at more frequent intervals until the owner or operator can set his own inspection periods based on the contingencies of field experience. Airplanes operated less than 600 hours in 36 months must have a "C" Inspection performed no later than 36 months following the date of the preceding "C" Inspection. NOTE: Ascertain that all placards are in place and legible whenever the airplane has been repainted or touched up after repairs. Replace any placards that have been inadvertently defaced or removed. Raytheon Aircraft Company’s Recommended Inspection Program in accordance with FAR 91.409 (f)(3) consists of, but is not limited to, inspection items listed in this Inspection Guide, any applicable Airworthiness Directives issued against the airframe or any equipment installed therein, conformity to Type Certificate Data Sheet and Maintenance Manual Chapter 4 as applicable. The owner or operator is primarily responsible for maintaining the airplane in an airworthy condition, including compliance with all applicable Airworthiness Directives as specified in Part 39 of the Federal Aviation Regulations. It is further the responsibility of the owner or operator to ensure that the airplane is inspected in conformity with the requirements of Parts 43 and 91 of the Federal Aviation Regulations. Raytheon Aircraft Company has prepared this inspection guide to assist the owner or operator in meeting the foregoing responsibilities. This inspection guide is not intended to be all inclusive, for no such guide can replace the good judgment of a certified airframe and power plant mechanic in the performance of his duties. As the one primarily responsible for the airworthiness of the airplane, the owner or operator should select only qualified personnel to maintain the airplane. While this guide may be used as an outline, detailed information of the many systems and components in the airplane will be found in the various sections/chapters of the maintenance manual and the pertinent vendor publications. It is also recommended that reference be made to the applicable Maintenance Handbooks, Raytheon Aircraft Service Bulletins, applicable FAA Regulations and Publications, Suppliers Bulletins and Specifications for torque values, clearances, settings, tolerances, and other requirements. It is the responsibility of the owner or operator to ensure that the airframe and power plant mechanic inspecting the airplane has access to the previously noted documents as well as to this inspection guide. Raytheon Aircraft Company issues service information for the benefit of owners and operators in the form of two classes of Service Bulletins. MANDATORY (Red Border) Service Bulletins are changes, inspections or modifications that could affect safety. The factory considers compliance with these Service Bulletins mandatory. OPTIONAL (No Border) Service Bulletins cover changes, modifications, improvements or inspections which may benefit the owner. Due to the wide range of information covered by the OPTIONAL Service Bulletin, each owner or operator is responsible for conducting a thorough review of each Optional Service Bulletin to determine if compliance is required based on the applicability of the OPTIONAL Service Bulletin to his particular set of operating conditions. 5-20-00 STARSHIP 1 MAINTENANCE MANUAL Page 2 Oct 31/06 B10 In the final analysis it is the responsibility of the owner or operator to ensure that all previously issued Class I and II Service Bulletins which are pertinent to his particular operation are complied with. NOTE: In addition to the inspections prescribed by this schedule, the altimeter instrument and static system and all ATC transponders MUST be tested and inspected at 24 month intervals in compliance with the requirements specified in FAR Part 91. Owners or Operators wishing to utilize Inspection Intervals less than 100 hours may do so without obtaining Raytheon Aircraft Company’s concurrence. Refer to the latest revision of this form for inspection procedure details to meet FAR 91.409 (f)(3).
