Airworthiness Directives; Boeing Model 747, 757, 767 and 777 Series Airplanes

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Boeing Model 747, 757, 767 and 777 series airplanes, that requires modification of certain drip shields located on the flight deck, and follow-on actions. This action is necessary to prevent potential ignition of the moisture barrier cover of the drip shield, which could propagate a small fire that results from an otherwise harmless electrical arc, leading to a larger fire. This action is intended to address the identified unsafe condition.
