This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Lockheed Model L-1011-385 series airplanes, that requires various modifications and inspections of the flight controls, doors, and horizontal stabilizers. This amendment is prompted by a recommendation by the Systems Review Task Force (SRTF) for accomplishment of certain modifications and inspections that will enhance the controllability of these airplanes in the unlikely event of flight control malfunction or failure. The actions specified by this AD are intended to ensure airplane survivability in the event of damage to fully powered flight control systems.
