Airworthiness Directives; Boeing Model 767-200 and 767-300 Series Airplanes
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Boeing Model 767-200 and 767-300 series airplanes, that requires modification of the installation of the aft pressure bulkhead-to-floor insulation blankets. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent interference with venting during a rapid decompression in the bulk cargo compartment; such interference could cause damage to the floor structure and damage to certain control cables leading to the empennage, which could result in reduced controllability of the airplane. This action is intended to address the identified unsafe condition.
