The existing AD also requires eventual replacement of all currently installed struts with new and/or reworked struts, as terminating action for the inspections. The amendment requires new repetitive inspections of the strut assemblies for cracking of struts replaced per the existing AD, and replacement of any cracked strut with a new, machined strut. The amendment also changes the applicability of the existing AD by adding certain airplanes and removing certain other airplanes, and includes an optional terminating action for the repetitive inspections. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent failure of the engine rear mount struts, which could result in red ]]> http://thefederalregister.com/d.p/2003-12-18-03-31058 Thu, Dec 18 2003 11:00:00 GMT http://thefederalregister.com/d.p/2003-12-18-03-31062 ]]> http://thefederalregister.com/d.p/2003-12-18-03-31062 Thu, Dec 18 2003 11:00:00 GMT http://thefederalregister.com/d.p/2003-12-18-03-31179 ]]> http://thefederalregister.com/d.p/2003-12-18-03-31179 Thu, Dec 18 2003 11:00:00 GMT http://thefederalregister.com/d.p/2003-12-18-03-31182 ]]> http://thefederalregister.com/d.p/2003-12-18-03-31182 Thu, Dec 18 2003 11:00:00 GMT http://thefederalregister.com/d.p/2003-12-18-03-31194 [[Page 70465]]
ultrasonic inspection, or repetitive visual inspections and eventual ultrasonic inspection, to detect cracking of the longitudinal skin splice above the midpassenger door panels, and corrective actions if necessary. This action would require repetitive ultrasonic inspections to detect cracking of certain skin lap joints in additional areas of the fuselage and repair if necessary. This action also would expand the applicability of the existing AD to include additional airplanes. The actions specified by the proposed AD are intended to detect and correct cracking of certain skin lap joints, which could result in reduced structural integrity and decompression of the airplane. This action is intended to address the identified unsafe condition. ]]> http://thefederalregister.com/d.p/2003-12-18-03-31194 Thu, Dec 18 2003 11:00:00 GMT http://thefederalregister.com/d.p/2003-12-18-03-31180 ]]> http://thefederalregister.com/d.p/2003-12-18-03-31180 Thu, Dec 18 2003 11:00:00 GMT http://thefederalregister.com/d.p/2003-12-18-03-31183 proposal would require a detailed inspection of the wing leading edge deicer boots to determine if they comply with the patch size and/or patch number limits in the critical zone as defined in the Aircraft Maintenance Manual; and corrective action, if necessary. This action is necessary to prevent reduced aerodynamic smoothness of the wing leading edge deicer boots and possible reduced stall margin, which could result in a significant increase in stall speeds, leading to a possible stall prior to activation of the stall warning. This action is intended to address the identified unsafe condition. ]]> http://thefederalregister.com/d.p/2003-12-18-03-31183 Thu, Dec 18 2003 11:00:00 GMT http://thefederalregister.com/d.p/2003-12-18-03-31181 [[Page 70476]]
