Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-12932 · Boeing Model 767 Series Airplanes
Boeing Model 767 Series Airplanes
Superseded. A later AD replaced this one: AD 2003-11-16. Comply with the one in force.
Model 767 series airplanes, including Model 767- 400ER series airplanes, line numbers 1 through 879 inclusive, certificated in any category.
This amendment supersedes an existing airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Boeing Model 767 series airplanes, that currently requires a one-time inspection for missing bolts on the inboard and outboard support of the inboard main flap, and follow-on inspections and corrective actions, if necessary. This amendment adds an inspection that was inadvertently omitted from the existing AD. The actions specified in this AD are intended to detect missing, loose, or cracked bolts on the supports of the inboard main flap and prevent loss of the inboard main flap, which could result in loss of control of the airplane. This action is intended to address the identified unsafe condition.
