Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by reports of cracks initiating in the fuselage frame web at body station (STA) 1640 and a determination that certain compliance times must be reduced due to severed fuselage frames reported at earlier flight cycles. The FAA is issuing this AD to address cracks initiating in the fuselage frame web at STA 1640, which, if not detected and corrected, could result in reduced structural integrity of the airplane and loss of controllability of the airplane. Furthermore, failure of the No. 4 passenger door surround structure (frame) at STA 1640 due to cracks could lead to explosive decompression.
Affected ADs
This AD replaces AD 2019-23-06, Amendment 39-19800 (84 FR 67179, December 9, 2019) (AD 2019-23-06).
