Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes
Abstract
The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain The Boeing Company Model 747-400 series airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by reports of potable water leaking into the electrical equipment bay cooling air inlet. This proposed AD would require performing repetitive inspections of potential water sources from the upper deck and the main deck, including potable water and waste water lines, for any water leaks and clogs, and applicable on- condition actions. The FAA is proposing 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.
Compliance instructions
The full AD text — required actions, compliance times, parts/serial numbers, and methods of compliance — is in the Federal Register publication. We do not paraphrase ADs because misreading the compliance instructions is a safety risk.
