Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-9445 · The Boeing Company Airplanes
The Boeing Company Airplanes
This AD applies to The Boeing Company 757-200 Series, 757-200CB Series, 757-200PF Series, 757-300 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.
This amendment supersedes an existing airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Boeing Model 757 series airplanes, that currently requires various modifications and terminating actions for the passenger door, and repair, if necessary. This amendment requires additional inspections, and replacement of certain parts, if necessary. This amendment also provides for optional terminating action for certain inspections. This amendment is prompted by reports of excessive gaps between lockout cams and crank stops, which resulted in broken power assist triggers. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent broken power assist triggers, which could result in an inoperative door opening system during an emergency evacuation.
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.
