Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes
Abstract
The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2019-16- 05, which applied to all The Boeing Company Model 777 airplanes. AD 2019-16-05 required identifying the part number, and the serial number if applicable, of the Captain's and First Officer's seats, and applicable on-condition actions for affected seats. This AD was prompted by reports of uncommanded fore/aft movement of the Captain's and First Officer's seats. This AD retains the requirements of AD 2019- 16-05 and adds an inspection of previously omitted part numbers. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Applicability
Aircraft makes and models this AD applies to, sorted by US-registered fleet size.
