Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Model 767-200, -300, and -300F Series Airplanes Powered by General Electric or Pratt & Whitney Engines
type: Action
additional type: https://schema.org/LegalForceStatus
description: The FAA is superseding an existing airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain Model 767-200, -300, and -300F series airplanes. The existing AD currently requires repetitive inspections to detect discrepancies of the 8 aft-most fastener holes in the horizontal tangs of the midspar fitting of the strut, and corrective actions if necessary. The existing AD also requires repetitive inspections for cracks of the closeout angle that covers the 2 aft-most fasteners in the lower tang of the midspar fitting, and related investigative and corrective actions if necessary. The existing AD also provides an optional terminating action for the repetitive inspections. This new AD reduces the compliance times for doing the inspections. This AD results from reports of cracks in the midspar fitting tangs. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct fatigue cracking in the primary strut structure and reduced structural integrity of the strut, which could result in separation of the strut and engine.
