Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by a report that there is insufficient bonding of the crossfeed valve in the fuel tank area. The FAA is issuing this AD to address insufficient or defective bonding in the fuel tank area, which, if not corrected, could lead to ignition of fuel vapors and subsequent fuel tank explosion.

Affected ADs

This AD replaces AD 2008-16-06, Amendment 39-15624 (73 FR 45346, August 5, 2008) (AD 2008-16-06).
