Makes named: piper. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.

Applicability*9

This AD applies to Piper Aircraft, Inc. (Piper) Model PA-46-600TP (M600) airplanes, serial numbers 4698004 through 4698041, certificated in any category.

Compliance

Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done.

Required actions

(1) Before further flight after July 25, 2018 (the effective date of this AD), insert the temporary airspeed limitations page into the pilot's operating handbook (POH), following the instructions in Part 1 of Piper Aircraft, Inc. Service Bulletin (SB) No. 1318B, dated June 7, 2018. (2) The insertion of the temporary operating limitations page into the POH may be performed by the owner/operator (pilot) holding at least a private pilot certificate and must be entered into the airplane records showing compliance with paragraph (g) of this AD in accordance with 14 CFR 43.9(a)(1) through (4) and 14 CFR 91.417(a)(2)(v). The record must be maintained as required by 14 CFR 91.417, 121.380, or 135.439.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by a report from Piper of rivets installed through the fuselage skin at the cockpit area during manufacture that are below the minimum required strength. We are issuing this AD to prevent failure of the skin joint, which could result in loss of pressurization or fuselage structural failure.

Affected ADs

None.
