This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to PTC Aerospace Model 91700 passenger oxygen system, installed in PTC Aerospace Model 881, 940, and 950 seats installed on McDonnell Douglas DC-10 series aircraft. This AD requires a one-time inspection to verify the proper configuration and functioning of the passenger oxygen system, and replacement, if necessary, with serviceable parts. This amendment is prompted by oxygen canisters failing to activate due to the installation of incorrect pin release brackets or defective oxygen canister release pins. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent failure of the passenger oxygen system to activate.
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.
