The export of these commodities, technology or software are subject to the U.S. Export
Administration Regulations. Diversion contrary to U.S. law is prohibited. For guidance on
export control requirements, contact the Commerce Department's Bureau of Export
Administration at http://www.bis.doc.gov.
Both classes are available on the web at http://pubs.hawkerbeechcraft.com and mailed to:
(a) Owners of record on the FAA Aircraft Registration Branch List and the HBC
Safety of Flight Information (SOFI) List.
(b) Those having a publications subscription.

Hawker Beechcraft Corporation (HBC) 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, inspection and modifications that
could affect safety or crashworthiness. HBC 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, HBC 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.
Information on Safety of Flight Information (SOFI) or subscription can be obtained through
the Hawker Beechcraft Corporation Technical Manual Distribution Center (TMDC). As
Mandatory Service Bulletins and Service Bulletins are issued, the Service Bulletin Master
Index will be updated and available online at http://pubs.hawkerbeechcraft.com. Warranty
will be allowed only when specifically defined in the Service Bulletin and in accordance with
HBC Warranty Policy.
Unless otherwise designated, HBC Mandatory Service Bulletins, Service Bulletins and HBC
Kits are approved for installation on HBC airplanes in original or HBC modified configurations
only. HBC Mandatory Service Bulletins, Service Bulletins and Kits may not be compatible
with airplanes modified by STC installations or modifications other than HBC approved kits.
