Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-11266 · Boeing Model 757-200 and -300 Series Airplanes
Boeing Model 757-200 and -300 Series Airplanes
Model 757-200 and -300 series airplanes equipped with off-wing emergency evacuation slides, as listed in Boeing Service Bulletin 757-25-0182, Revision 1, dated June 12, 1997, or Boeing Service Bulletin 757-25-0200, dated January 21, 1999; certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Boeing Model 757-200 and -300 series airplanes, that requires modification of the off-wing emergency evacuation slide system. This amendment is prompted by reports that a certain type of off-wing escape slide aboard several airplanes separated from the airplane during flight. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent separation of the emergency evacuation slide from the airplane, which could result in damage to the fuselage and unavailability of an escape slide 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.
