Models named: 747-8 series. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.

Applicability*9

This AD applies to Boeing Model 747-8 series airplanes, certificated in any category, as identified in Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 747-35-2132, dated June 8, 2015.

Compliance

Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done.

Required actions

Within 72 months after the effective date of this AD: Do a general visual inspection to determine if all oxygen components are installed; and do all applicable corrective actions; in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 747-35-2132, dated June 8, 2015. Do all applicable corrective actions before further flight.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by a report of oxygen tube couplings in the passenger oxygen system that could be missing or incorrectly installed. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct oxygen leaks from oxygen tube couplings in the passenger oxygen system, which could result in depletion of emergency oxygen at a faster rate than expected, reduce the passengers' and crews' protection from hypoxia at elevated cabin altitudes, and increase the risk of a fire.

Affected ADs

None.
