Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-22482 · Placards and markings
The Boeing Company Airplanes
This AD applies to The Boeing Company Model 767-300F airplanes, certificated in any category, as identified in Boeing Special Attention Requirements Bulletin 767-25-0589 RB, dated February 25, 2022.
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain The Boeing Company Model 767-300F airplanes. This AD was prompted by a report indicating that the installation requirements were not followed for the first observer seat in the flight deck. This AD requires installing placards in various locations of the flight deck to indicate the proper position for the first observer seat during taxi, takeoff, and landing, and revising the existing airplane flight manual (AFM). The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Except as specified by paragraph (h) of this AD: At the applicable time specified in the “Compliance” paragraph of Boeing Special Attention Requirements Bulletin 767-25-0589 RB, dated February 25, 2022, do all applicable actions identified in, and in accordance with, the Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing Special Attention Requirements Bulletin 767-25-0589 RB, dated February 25, 2022.
Note 1 to paragraph (g): Guidance for accomplishing the actions required by this AD can be found in Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 767-25-0589, dated February 25, 2022, which is referred to in Boeing Special Attention Requirements Bulletin 767-25-0589 RB, dated February 25, 2022.
Where the Compliance Time column of the table in the “Compliance” paragraph of Boeing Special Attention Requirements Bulletin 767-25-0589 RB, dated February 25, 2022, uses the phrase “the original issue date of Requirements Bulletin 767-25-0589 RB,” this AD requires using “the effective date of this AD.”
Within 12 months after the effective date of this AD, revise Section 3.1 of the Normal Procedures Section of the existing AFM to include the information in figure 1 to paragraph (i) of this AD. This may be done by inserting a copy of figure 1 to paragraph (i) of this AD into the existing AFM.
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.
