Abstract
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to certain McDonnell Douglas Model DC-8-60 series airplanes. This action requires inspection to determine the part number of the cone bolt on the right side of the forward mount of each engine, and replacement of the bolt, if necessary. This amendment is prompted by a report of failure of a cone bolt at that location on an engine of one airplane. The actions specified in this AD are intended to prevent failure of the cone bolt on the right side of the forward mount of the engine, which may lead to separation of the engine during a critical phase of flight.
