Regulations. Diversion contrary to U.S. law prohibited."
Raytheon Aircraft Company (RAC) issues Service Information for the benefit of owners and
fixed base operators in the form of two classes of Service Bulletins. The first class,
Mandatory Service Bulletins (red border) includes changes, inspections and modifications
that could affect safety or crashworthiness. RAC also issues Service Bulletins with no red
border which are designated as either recommended or optional in the compliance section
within the bulletin. In the case of recommended Service Bulletins, RAC feels the changes,
modifications, improvements or inspections will benefit the owner/operator and although
highly recommended, Recommended Service Bulletins are not considered mandatory at the
time of issuance. In the case of Optional Service Bulletins, compliance with the changes,
modifications, improvements or inspections is at the owner/operator’s discretion. Both
classes are mailed to:
(a) RAC Authorized Service Centers.
(b) Owners of record on the FAA Aircraft Registration Branch List and the RAC
International Owner Notification/Registration Service List.
(c) Those having a publications subscription.
Information on Owner Notification Service or subscription can be obtained through any RAC
Authorized Service Center. As Mandatory Service Bulletins and Service Bulletins are issued,
temporary notification in the Service Bulletin Master Index should be made until the index is
revised. Warranty will be allowed only when specifically defined in the Service Bulletin and in
accordance with the RAC Warranty Policy.
Unless otherwise designated, RAC Mandatory Service Bulletins, Service Bulletins and RAC
Kits are approved for installation on RAC airplanes in original or RAC modified
configurations only. RAC Mandatory Service Bulletins, Service Bulletins and Kits may not
be compatible with airplanes modified by STC installations or modifications other than RAC
approved kits.
