Applicability*9

Model L-1011-385-1, -1-14, -1-15, and -3 series airplanes, equipped with high pressure bleed valve controller Hamilton Standard part number (P/N) 739084-2 or 739084-3 (Lockheed P/N 672286-103 or 672286-105); certificated in any category. Note 1: This AD applies to each airplane identified in the preceding applicability provision, regardless of whether it has been modified, altered, or repaired in the area subject to the requirements of this AD. For airplanes that have been modified, altered, or repaired so that the performance of the requirements of this AD is affected, the owner/operator must request approval for an alternative method of compliance in accordance with paragraph (c) of this AD. The request should include an assessment of the effect of the modification, alteration, or repair on the unsafe condition addressed by this AD; and, if the unsafe condition has not been eliminated, the request should include specific proposed actions to address it.

Compliance

Required as indicated, unless accomplished previously. To prevent failures of the bleed air system components, which could result in high temperature air leaking into the cabin and/or cargo areas and could possibly require an emergency landing and evacuation, accomplish the following: (a) Within 14 months after the effective date of this AD, modify the high pressure bleed valve controller of each engine in accordance with Lockheed Service Bulletin 093-36-065, dated February 9, 1999. Note 2: Lockheed Service Bulletin 093-36-065, dated February 9, 1999, references Hamilton Standard Service Bulletin 36-1060, Revision 1, dated March 1, 1977, as an additional source of service information for the modification of the high pressure bleed valve controller of each engine. (b) As of the effective date of this AD, no person shall install on any airplane a high pressure bleed valve controller having Hamilton Standard part number (P/N) 739084-2 or 739084-3 (Lockheed P/N 672286-103 or 672286-105), unless it has been modified in accordance with this AD. Alternative Methods of Compliance (c) An alternative method of compliance or adjustment of the compliance time that provides an acceptable level of safety may be used if approved by the Manager, Atlanta Aircraft Certification Office (ACO), FAA, Small Airplane Directorate. Operators shall submit their requests through an appropriate FAA Principal Maintenance Inspector, who may add comments and then send it to the Manager, Atlanta ACO. Note 3: Information concerning the existence of approved alternative methods of compliance with this AD, if any, may be obtained from the Atlanta ACO. Special Flight Permits (d) Special flight permits may be issued in accordance with sections 21.197 and 21.199 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR 21.197 and 21.199) to operate the airplane to a location where the requirements of this AD can be accomplished. Incorporation by Reference (e) The actions shall be done in accordance with Lockheed Service Bulletin 093-36-065, dated February 9, 1999. This incorporation by reference was approved by the Director of the Federal Register in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 1 CFR part 51.
