AIRWORTHINESS LIMITATIONS

NOTE: The Airworthiness Limitations section is FAA approved and specifies maintenance required
under §§ 43.16 and 91.403 of the Federal Aviation Regulations unless an alternative program
has been FAA approved.
1. Limitations (PIR-TCDS A7SO, Rev. 17.)

NOTE: Refer to the LIMITATIONS section in the Pilot’s Operating Handbook for a detailed delineation of
the flight limitations of the airplane.
The following limitations related to the fatigue life of the airplane and its components have been
established for the PA-34-220T Seneca IV / V airplane:
A. The bolt and stack-up that connect the upper drag link to the nose gear trunnion are required to be
replaced every 500 hours time-in-service. The part numbers are as follows:
(1) P/N 400-274 (AN7-35) bolt or P/N 693-215 (NAS6207-50D) bolt;
(2) P/N 407-591 (AN960-716L) washer, as applicable;
(3) P/N 407-568 (AN 960-716) washer, as applicable;
(4) P/N 404-396 (AN 320-7) nut; and
(5) P/N 424-085 cotter pin.
B. Wing Life Limit = 12,240 hours time-in-service.
2. Inspections
Refer to 5-20-00 for Piper’s recommended Inspection Program.
3. Life Limited Parts Marking and Disposition
14 CFR Part 43.10, Disposition of Life-Limited Aircraft Parts requires that proper procedures are
followed when removing life limited parts with time and/or cycles remaining on them as well as the
disposition of life limited parts with no time and/or cycles left. Life limited parts defined by Type
Certificate (TC) are listed in paragraph 1, above. Other parts which are replaced or rebuilt at specified
intervals are listed in Chapter 5.
A. Parts that are removed prior to accumulating their life limit, are to be marked with indelible ink or
marker with the part number, serial number and accumulated life status as defined in 14 CFR Part
43.10 in a manner that does not affect part structural integrity, i.e. - no surface deformation such as
vibration/etching allowed.
B. Parts that have accumulated the life limit shall be disposed of in accordance with the applicable
FARs. Piper recommends life limited parts with no time and/or cycles remaining be completely
destroyed.
