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., Model PA-46-600TP (M600) airplanes, serial numbers 4698001, 4698004 through 4698010, 4698012 through 4698016, and 4698018 through 4698076, 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 12, 2019 (the effective date of this AD), insert the ground operations limitation into the Limitations section of the airplane flight manual (AFM) and install on the airplane cockpit instrument panel a placard limiting ground operations by following the Instructions, Part I Temporary Ground Operating Limitation, of Piper Aircraft, Inc., Service Bulletin No. 1332A, dated January 29, 2019 (Piper SB No. 1332A). Note 1 to paragraph (g)(1) and (h)(2) of this AD: The Piper Aircraft, Inc. pilot's operating handbook for the Model PA-46-600TP (M600) airplane constitutes its FAA-approved AFM. (2) The actions required by paragraph (g)(1) of this AD may be performed by the owner/operator (pilot) holding at least a private pilot certificate and must be entered into the aircraft records showing compliance with 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 of understrength rivets installed on the bulkhead assembly during manufacture. The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent failure of the understrength rivets, which could lead to structural failure of the fuselage station (FS) 79 bulkhead with consequent loss of control of the airplane.

Affected ADs

None.
