Required actions
(e) To address this problem, you must do the following, unless already done: Actions Compliance Procedures (1) Inspect any inboard wing attach shoulder bolt for: Within the next 100 hours aircraft time-in-service (TIS) after November 17, 1995 (the effective date of AD 95-19-15, unless already done Follow American General Aircraft Corporation Service Bulletin No. SB-185-A, Revision A, dated January 10, 2005.

(3) Inspect the mounting holes in the wing spar and the center section spar for enlargement or elongation that exceeds the specified dimension Within the next 100 hours aircraft time-in-service (TIS) after November 17, 1995 (the effective date of AD 95-19-15), unless already done Follow American General Aircraft Corporation Service Bulletin No. SB-185-A, Revision A, dated January 10, 2005. (4) Ream and bush any mounting hole that exceeds the specified dimension found during the inspection required by paragraph (e)(3) of this AD Before further flight after the inspection required by paragraph (e)(3) of this AD Follow American General Aircraft Corporation Service Bulletin No. SB-185-A, Revision A, dated January 10, 2005 (5) Inspect the wing spar at the center spar clearance gap for excessive clearance, and shim the spar if excessive clearance is found Before further flight after the inspections required by paragraphs (e)(1) and (e)(3) of this AD Follow American General Aircraft Corporation Service Bulletin No. SB-185-A, Revision A, dated January 10, 2005.

Unsafe condition
(d) AD 95-19-15 currently requires you to inspect the wing attach shoulder bolts for fretting, scoring, wear, or enlarged or elongated mounting holes (known as damage from hereon); replace any damaged parts; repair any damaged areas; inspect the wing spar at the center spar clearance gap for excessive clearance; and shim the spar if excessive clearance is found. That AD was written to apply to all serial numbers of all models. A design change was made in this area beginning with serial number 10175 of the Model AG-5B airplanes. Therefore, the action should not apply to Model AG-5B airplanes with a serial number of 10175 or higher. This AD retains all the actions of AD 95-19-15 for all airplanes originally affected, but cuts off the applicability for the Model AG-5B airplanes at serial number 10174. We are issuing this AD to continue to prevent wing attach shoulder bolt failure, which, if not detected and corrected, could lead to structural damage of the wing/fuselage to the point of failure.
Affected ADs
(b) This AD revises AD 95-19-15, Amendment 39-9377.
