## Abstract

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Boeing Model 767-300 airplanes. This action requires removing each sidewall-mounted reading light in the attendant crew rest compartment, installing cover plates in place of the existing reading lights, removing each reading light switch, and installing a new reading light in place of the existing light switch. This action is necessary to prevent contact between the occupant of the attendant crew rest compartment and the sidewall-mounted reading lights, which could result in possible injury to the occupant; and to prevent contact between various flammable materials and the sidewall-mounted reading lights, which could cause charring or melting of the heated material, and consequent emission of toxic or noxious gases. This action is intended to address the identified unsafe condition.
