Models named: 767-300F series. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.

Applicability*9

(1) This AD applies to The Boeing Company Model 767-300F series airplanes, certificated in any category, as identified in Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin 767-53A0337 RB, dated October 17, 2025. (2) Installation of Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) ST01920SE does not affect the ability to accomplish the actions required by this AD. Therefore, for airplanes on which STC ST01920SE 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

Except as specified by paragraph (h) of this AD: At the applicable times specified in the “Compliance” paragraph of Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin 767-53A0337 RB, dated October 17, 2025, do all applicable actions identified in, and in accordance with, the Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin 767-53A0337 RB, dated October 17, 2025. Note 1 to paragraph (g): Guidance for accomplishing the actions required by this AD can be found in Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 767-53A0337, dated October 17, 2025, which is referred to in Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin 767-53A0337 RB, dated October 17, 2025.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by a report of a supplier notice of escapement documenting that some titanium cargo track crown fittings had suspect material certifications. The FAA is issuing this AD to address suspect material certifications on the titanium track crown fittings. The unsafe condition, if not addressed, could result in cargo track failure and could lead to uncommanded movement of the cargo pallet and subsequent damage to critical systems located in the sidewall or ceiling area of the main cargo compartment, along with inability of a principle structural element to sustain limit loads, which could significantly affect controllability of the airplane.

Affected ADs

None.
