This AD was prompted by reports that the thrust reverser correction factors presented in certain airplane flight manual (AFM) performance charts for landing on contaminated runways do not provide sufficient margin for stopping distances in certain conditions. The FAA is issuing this AD to address incorrect AFM performance charts, which if not corrected, could lead to longitudinal runway excursions.

None.
