Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-13522 · Boeing Model 737-200 Series Airplanes Modified by Supplemental Type Certificate ST00516AT
Boeing Model 737-200 Series Airplanes Modified by Supplemental Type Certificate ST00516AT
Model 737-200 series airplanes modified by Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) ST00516AT, certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to all Boeing Model 737-200 series airplanes modified by Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) ST00516AT, that requires removal of the in-flight entertainment (IFE) system installed per that STC. This action is necessary to eliminate the possibility that the airplane crew could be unable to remove power from the IFE system during a non-normal or emergency situation, which could result in the airplane crew's inability to control smoke or fumes in the airplane flight deck or cabin. This action is intended to address the identified unsafe condition.
