Docket No. 2000-NM-111-AD

Abstract

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to certain Boeing Model 737 series airplanes. This action requires a one-time general visual inspection of the seat locks and seat tracks of the flightcrew seats to ensure that the seats lock in position and to verify that lock nuts and bolts of adequate length are installed on the rear tracklock bracket, and corrective action, if necessary. This action is necessary to prevent uncommanded movement of the flightcrew seats during acceleration and take-off of the airplane, which could result in reduced controllability of the airplane. This action is intended to address the identified unsafe condition.
