Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-9530 · The Boeing Company Airplanes
The Boeing Company Airplanes
This AD applies to The Boeing Company MD-11, MD-11F.
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 adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain McDonnell Douglas Model MD-11 series airplanes. This action requires the installation of a control cable guard to separate the flight control cables from the electrical wiring of the aft left cabin attendant console. This amendment is prompted by reports of burnt electrical wire cable in the cabin attendant console that was caused by chafing of the wire cable against certain flight control cables. The actions specified in this AD are intended to prevent chafing of these wire cables, which could result in a fire hazard or damage to critical flight control cables.
