This AD applies to The Boeing Company 767-200 Series, 767-300 Series, 767-300F Series, 767-400ER Series.
The models as the FAA's AD index lists them. The serial ranges, installed parts and exceptions are in the AD itself: read it at the FAA.
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain The Boeing Company Model 767 airplanes. This AD requires an inspection of the number 2 windows to \n\n((Page 16148)) \n\ndetermine whether the link arms are in the over-center position, and modifying the link arms of the number 2 windows in the flight compartment if necessary. This AD also requires the inspection, and modification if necessary, for airplanes that replace a modified assembly with an unmodified assembly. This AD results from reports of the number 2 windows opening during takeoff roll, which has resulted in aborted takeoffs. We are issuing this AD to prevent the opening of the number 2 windows during takeoff roll, which could adversely affect the flightcrew's ability to perform critical takeoff communication and result in an aborted takeoff or an unscheduled landing.
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.
