Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-12585 · Boeing Model 767 Series Airplanes
Boeing Model 767 Series Airplanes
Superseded. A later AD replaced this one: AD 2009-04-12. Comply with the one in force.
Model 767 series airplanes, line numbers 1 through 854 inclusive, certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to certain Boeing Model 767 series airplanes. This action requires a one-time inspection for missing, damaged, or incorrectly installed parts in the separation link assembly on the deployment bar of the emergency escape system on the entry or service door, and installation of new parts, if necessary. This action is necessary to prevent failure of an entry or service door to open fully in the event of an emergency evacuation, which could impede exit from the airplane. This condition could result in injury to passengers or crewmembers. This action is intended to address the identified unsafe condition.
