Note 1 to paragraph (g) of this AD: Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 747-21A2523, Revision 1, dated October 3, 2011, refers to the service bulletins specified in paragraphs (g)(1), (g)(2), and (g)(3) of this AD as additional sources of guidance for the software installation specified by paragraph (g) of this AD, which are not incorporated by reference in this AD. (1) Boeing Service Bulletin 747-31-2426, dated July 29, 2010 (for airplanes with Rolls-Royce engines).

(3) Boeing Service Bulletin 747-31-2428, dated July 29, 2010 (for airplanes with Pratt & Whitney engines).

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by multiple reports of integrated display unit (IDU) malfunctions and mode control panel (MCP) malfunctions. We are issuing this AD to prevent IDU malfunctions, which could affect the ability of the flightcrew to read primary displays for airplane attitude, altitude, or airspeed, and consequently reduce the ability of the flightcrew to maintain control of the airplane.

Affected ADs

None.
