Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-13331 · Boeing Model 737-400, -500, -600, -700, and -800 Series Airplanes
Boeing Model 737-400, -500, -600, -700, and -800 Series Airplanes
Model 737-400 and -500 series airplanes, as listed in Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-30A1052, dated October 12, 2000; and Model 737-600, -700, and -800 series airplanes, as listed in Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-30A1049, dated June 1, 2000; certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Boeing Model 737-400, -500, -600, -700, and -800 series airplanes, that requires either modification of the wiring to the windshield wiper motors in the flight compartment or replacement of those windshield wiper motor/converters with new motor/converters. This action is necessary to prevent a reduction in flight crew visibility due to stalled wiper motors during heavy precipitation and a period of substantial crew workload, which could result in damage to the airplane structure and injury to flight crew, passengers, or ground personnel during final approach for landing. This action is intended to address the identified unsafe condition.
The aircraft, engines and makers this AD names, by the model designations in its text. A model listed here may still be outside the AD's serial ranges.
