A. General
The Structural Inspection and Repair Manual is prepared in accordance with the requirements of ATA
(Air Transport Association of America) Specification 2200 with respect to the arrangement and content
of the System/Chapters within the designated numbering system.
This manual provides details on the inspection, repair, and/or replacement of specific structural
members on the Bonanza Series of airplanes and the Baron 55 and 58 airplanes. The information within
a chapter that may be acceptable to only one model is arranged in a subchapter and separated with a
green tab.
If a particular airplane model has been equipped with more than one spar type, the subchapter will be
further divided into sub-sub sections which will detail the peculiar inspection requirements for each spar
type. The sub-sub sections will be separated by white divider tabs which note the model and section.
It shall be the responsibility of the owner/operator to make sure the latest revision of the publications
referenced in this manual are utilized during operation, servicing and maintenance of the airplane.
In addition to this manual and its subsequent revisions, additional maintenance information is published
in the form of Hawker Beechcraft Corporation service bulletins. The information contained in these
service bulletins is an integral part of, and is to be used in conjunction with, the information contained in
this manual.
Hawker Beechcraft Corporation expressly reserves the right to supersede, cancel and/or declare
obsolete any parts, part numbers, kits or publications that may be referenced in this manual without
prior notice.

STRUCTURAL INSPECTION AND REPAIR MANUAL
WARNING: Use only parts obtained from sources approved by Hawker Beechcraft Corporation,
in connection with the maintenance and repair of Hawker Beechcraft Corporation
airplanes.
Genuine Hawker Beechcraft Corporation parts are produced and inspected under
rigorous procedures to insure airworthiness and suitability for use in Hawker
Beechcraft Corporation airplane applications. Parts purchased from sources other
than those approved by Hawker Beechcraft Corporation, even though outwardly
identical in appearance, may not have the required tests and inspections performed,
may be different in fabrication techniques and materials, and may be dangerous
when installed in an airplane.
Salvaged airplane parts, reworked parts obtained from sources not approved by the
Hawker Beechcraft Corporation or parts, components or structural assemblies, the
service history of which is unknown or cannot be authenticated, may have been
subjected to unacceptable stresses or temperatures or have other hidden damage,
not discernible through routine visual or usual nondestructive testing techniques.
This may render the part, component or structural assembly, even though originally
manufactured by the Hawker Beechcraft Corporation, unsuitable and unsafe for
airplane use.
Hawker Beechcraft Corporation expressly disclaims any responsibility for
malfunctions, failures, damage or injury caused by use of parts not approved by the
Hawker Beechcraft Corporation.
Any maintenance requiring the disconnection and connection of flight control
cables, plumbing, electrical connectors or wiring requires identification of each side
of the component being disconnected to facilitate correct reassembly. At or before
disassembly, components should be color coded, tagged or properly identified in a
way that it will be obvious how to correctly reconnect the components. After
connection of any component, remove all identification tags. Check all associated
systems for correct function before returning the airplane to service.
B. Qualifications
All personnel performing Non-destructive Testing Inspections (NDT) in this manual must be qualified
and Certified Level II or Level III in accordance with NAS 410 in the method in which they are
performing. All inspections must be documented and approved by a person who has completed the
S.I.R.M training course offered by Hawker Beechcraft Corporation, no alternate courses are approved.
The implementation of these test procedures by unauthorized personnel will not be considered valid.
The Structural Inspection and Repair Manual course information can be obtained by calling Flight
Safety International, Hawker Beechcraft Corporation Maintenance Training Center, Wichita, Kansas,
USA at 316.612.5400 or Fax 316.612.5449.
NOTE: A Certified Level II or Level III technician in accordance with NAS 410 may perform the NDT
requirements as directed in this manual having not attended the Hawker Beechcraft Training, if
the technician is directed by a person who has completed training.
C. Correspondence
If a question should arise concerning the care of your airplane, it is important to include the airplane
serial number in any correspondence. The serial number appears on the model designation placard.
Refer to Chapter 11 of the applicable maintenance manual for placard location.

E. Warnings, Cautions, and Notes
• WARNING - Brings attention to an operating procedure, inspection or maintenance practice,
which if not correctly followed, could result in personal injury or loss of life.
• CAUTION - Brings attention to an operating procedure, inspection, repair or maintenance
condition, which if not strictly observed, could result in damage or destruction of equipment.
• NOTE - Brings attention to an operating procedure, inspection, repair or maintenance
condition, which is essential to highlight.
F. Special Conditions Cautionary Notice
Airplanes operated for Air Taxi, or other than normal operation, and airplanes operated in humid tropics,
cold and damp climates, etc., may need more frequent inspections for wear, corrosion and/or lack of
lubrication. Under these adverse conditions, perform periodic inspections in compliance with this guide
at more frequent intervals until the owner or operator can set his own inspection periods based on the
contingencies of field experience.
CAUTION: The recommended periods do not constitute a guarantee the item will reach the period
without malfunction as the aforementioned factors cannot be controlled by the
manufacturer.

3. HOW TO USE THE MANUAL
A. ATA Subject Matter Assignment
The contents of this manual are organized into three levels. The three levels are:
(1) Level 1 - System/Chapter
The various groups are broken down into major systems such as Air conditioning, Electrical
Power, Landing Gear, etc. The systems are arranged more or less alphabetically rather than by
precedence or importance. They are assigned a number, which becomes the first element of the
standardized numbering system. Thus the element “24” of the number 24-30-01 refers to the
chapter “ELECTRICAL POWER”. Everything concerning the electrical power system will be
covered in this chapter.
(2) Level 2 - Subsystem/Section
The major systems/chapters of an airplane are broken down into subsystems/sections. These
subsystems are identified by the second element of the standard numbering system. The element
“30” of the number 24-30-01 concerns itself with the DC Generation system.
(3) Level 3 - Unit/Subject
The individual units within a subsystem/section may be identified by the third element of the
standard numbering system. The element “01” of the number 24-30-01 is a subject designator.
This element is assigned at the option of the manufacturer and may or may not be used. In this
example, the subject is the “Starter-Generator”.

B. Application
Any publication conforming to the ATA format will use the same basic numbering system. Thus, whether
the manual is a Maintenance Manual or a Wiring Diagram Manual, the person wishing information
concerning the electrical system, would refer to the System/Chapter Tab “24 - ELECTRICAL POWER”.
The table of contents in the front of this chapter will provide a list of subsystems covered in this chapter.
For example, the electrical system chapter would contain:
24-00 - General
24-20 - AC Generation (portion of system used to generate, regulate, etc., AC electrical power)
24-30 - DC Generation (portion of system used to generate, regulate, etc., DC electrical power)
24-40 - External Power (portion of system used to connect external electrical power)
24-60 - DC Electrical Load Distribution (portion of system used to supply DC electrical power to
systems)
The material is arranged within the chapter in ascending numerical sequence. The
Chapter-Section-Subject number and page number are found at the lower outside corner of each page.
