Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by a determination that a certain nondestructive test (NDT) procedure associated with a certain airworthiness limitation for inspecting for cracks at the inboard, mid, and outboard flap metallic end ribs does not contain all of the necessary instructions. The FAA is issuing this AD to address undetected cracks. The unsafe condition, if not addressed, could result in structural failure of the flap, which could result in possible reduced structural integrity of the airplane.
Affected ADs
None.
