Models named: 737-100, -200, -200C, -300, -400, -500 series. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.

Applicability*9

(1) This AD applies to all The Boeing Company Model 737-100, -200, -200C, -300, -400, and -500 series airplanes, certificated in any category. (2) Installation of Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) ST01219SE does not affect the ability to accomplish the actions required by this AD. Therefore, for airplanes on which STC ST01219SE is installed, a “change in product” alternative method of compliance (AMOC) approval request is not necessary to comply with the requirements of 14 CFR 39.17.

Compliance

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

Required actions

For airplanes identified as Group 1 in Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin 737-57A1353 RB, dated February 10, 2022: Within 120 days after the effective date of this AD, inspect the airplane and do all applicable on-condition actions using a method approved in accordance with the procedures specified in paragraph (j) of this AD.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by a report indicating that a crack was found in one of the holes of the wing rear spar lower chord at the main landing gear (MLG) aft fitting at wing buttock line (WBL) 157. The FAA is issuing this AD to address cracking in the rear spar lower chord at a fastener common to the MLG aft support fitting. This condition, if not addressed, could result in the inability of the rear spar lower chord to sustain limit loads, resulting in reduced structural integrity of the airplane and possible loss of control of the airplane.

Affected ADs

None.
