Models named: 737-700. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.

Applicability*9

This AD applies to The Boeing Company Model 737-700 airplanes, certificated in any category, having line numbers (L/Ns) 481, 545, 684, 979, 1089, 1211, and 1223.

Compliance

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

Required actions

At the applicable times identified in paragraph 1.E., “Compliance” of Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-26A1137, Revision 2, dated January 27, 2020, except as required by paragraph (i) of this AD, do the test to verify correct operation of the smoke clearance mode of the equipment cooling system and low pressure environmental control system, and do all applicable corrective actions, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-26A1137, Revision 2, dated January 27, 2020. Do all applicable corrective actions before further flight. Repeat the test thereafter at intervals not to exceed 9,000 flight hours.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by a determination that a repetitive test is needed to assess the components on airplanes equipped with a certain air distribution system configuration. The FAA is issuing this AD to address latent failures of the equipment cooling system and low pressure environmental control system, which, in combination with a cargo fire event, could result in smoke in the flight deck and/or main cabin, and possible loss of aircraft control.

Affected ADs

This AD affects AD 2016-04-06, Amendment 39-18400 (81 FR 9756, February 26, 2016) (“AD 2016-04-06”).
