Applicability*9

Compliance

Required as indicated, unless accomplished previously. To prevent undetected cracking of the H-11 bolts or excessive wear of the cadmium-plated bolts, which would compromise the primary load path of the engine support and could result in separation of the engine from the airplane, accomplish the following: Inspection and Replacement (a) Within 18 months or 3,000 flight cycles from the effective date of this AD, whichever is earlier, inspect the bolts that are used to attach the forward cone bolt to the engine flange to determine if they are H-11 steel bolts (part number (P/N) BACB30GU12-64), cadmium-plated bolts (P/N BACB30LM12-64), or corrosion-resistant bolts (P/N NAS6712E64 or P/N B27-53-031-111, not listed in the service bulletin), per the Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 727-71A0402, dated January 18, 2001. (1) If corrosion-resistant bolts (P/N NAS6712E64 or P/N B27-53-031-111) are installed, no further action is required by this paragraph. (2) If any H-11 steel bolt or cadmium-plated bolt is found, before further flight, replace the bolt with a new corrosion-resistant bolt (P/N NAS6712E64), according to the Accomplishment Instructions in the service bulletin. Parts Installation (b) As of the effective date of this AD, no person may install an H-11 steel bolt (P/N BACB30GU12-64) or a cadmium-plated bolt (P/N BACB30LM12-64) to attach the forward cone bolt to the engine flange on any airplane. Alternative Methods of Compliance (c) In accordance with 14 CFR 39.19, the Manager, Seattle Aircraft Certification Office, FAA, is authorized to approve alternative methods of compliance (AMOCs) for this AD. Incorporation by Reference (d) The actions shall be done in accordance with Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 727-71A0402, dated January 18, 2001. 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.
