Airworthiness Concern Sheet for 336/337 flap cable failure

Click here for document. Airworthiness Concern Sheets (ACS) are distributed to the user community to collect information that may or may not lead to further action by the FAA, such as Airworthiness Directives (AD). Your answers to the questions in this document and other comments are solicited by the FAA. Please comment using the message thread in the Messages section of the Message Board titled Flap Cable ACS. The FAA engineer who issued the ACS, as well as Tom Carr at CPA, will receive and are interested in your comments.

Cessna Service Bulletin MEB02-7 Main Landing Gear Actuator Inspection

This service bulletin is no longer available on this site, see below for explanation.

We initially received permission to post Service Bulletins on this site from Cessna's public relations department. A week or so after we ordered the service bulletin subscription, we received email from Tom Wakefield, Cessna VP and General Counsel informing us that the person who gave us permission did not have the authority to do so, and that we did not have permission to post Cessna's copyrighted service bulletin material. Accordingly, the material has been removed from the site. We obviously are disappointed by this decision. We emailed Mr. Wakefield asking him to reconsider his decision (begged him, actually), and copied his boss, Russ Meyer, CEO of Cessna. In that email, we also asked if Cessna would like to provide a statement for this site, explaining their actions. Mr. Wakefield's response is shown in quotes below.

"Cessna does not and it does not allow others to post its service letters and
bulletins on websites. Cessna has a full range of copyrighted service
publications available for owners, including subscriptions to Service
letters and bulletins. Cessna directly distributes such publications to
ensure that accurate, correct, and complete service information is provided
to individual owners for their specific aircraft. If you would like more
information about Cessna copyrighted service publications, please contact
Cessna Customer Services, Telephone No. 316/517-5800 or Facsimile No.
316/942-9006."
