The Boeing Company Airplanes
This AD applies to The Boeing Company 767-200 Series, 767-300 Series, 767-300F 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 document publishes in the Federal Register an amendment adopting Airworthiness Directive (AD) T96-14-51 that was sent previously to all known U.S. owners and operators of Boeing Model 767 series airplanes by individual telegrams. This AD requires an inspection of the aileron control cables and the generator feeder cables to detect chafing damage of the cables and to ensure that a minimum clearance exists between them. It also requires the correction of any discrepancies detected and submission of a report of inspection results to the FAA. This amendment is prompted by reports of failure of the aileron control cables due to inadequate clearance between the aileron control cable and the generator power feeder cable, which occurred during manufacture of the airplane. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent reduced controllability of the airplane due to failure of the aileron control cable.
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.
