Applicability*9

Model 767 series airplanes, having line positions 1 through 542 inclusive, and equipped with over-wing escape slides; certificated in any category. Note 1: This AD applies to each airplane identified in the preceding applicability provision, regardless of whether it has been modified, altered, or repaired in the area subject to the requirements of this AD. For airplanes that have been modified, altered, or repaired so that the performance of the requirements of this AD is affected, the owner/operator must use the authority provided in paragraph (c) of this AD to request approval from the FAA. This approval may address either no action, if the current configuration eliminates the unsafe condition; or different actions necessary to address the unsafe condition described in this AD. Such a request should include an assessment of the effect of the changed configuration on the unsafe condition addressed by this AD. In no case does the presence of any modification, alteration, or repair remove any airplane from the applicability of this AD.

Compliance

Required as indicated, unless accomplished previously. To prevent damage to the over-wing escape slide, which could hinder inflation of the slide to a usable configuration during an emergency evacuation, accomplish the following: (a) For airplanes having line numbers 1 through 476 inclusive: Within 15 months after January 31, 1994 (the effective date of AD 93-25-06, amendment 39-8772), modify the trailing edge panels and the aft flaps, in accordance with Boeing Service Bulletin 767-57- 0043, Revision 1, dated May 6, 1993; Revision 2, dated September 16, 1993; or Revision 3, dated February 2, 1995. (b) For airplanes having line numbers 477 through 542 inclusive: Within 15 months after the effective date of this AD, modify the trailing edge panels and the aft flaps, in accordance with Boeing Service Bulletin 767-57-0043, Revision 1, dated May 6, 1993; Revision 2, dated September 16, 1993; or Revision 3, dated February 2, 1995. (c) An alternative method of compliance or adjustment of the compliance time that provides an acceptable level of safety may be used if approved by the Manager, Seattle Aircraft Certification Office (ACO), FAA, Transport Airplane Directorate. Operators shall submit their requests through an appropriate FAA Principal Maintenance Inspector, who may add comments and then send it to the Manager, Seattle ACO. [[Page 37938]] Note 2: Information concerning the existence of approved alternative methods of compliance with this AD, if any, may be obtained from the Seattle ACO. (d) Special flight permits may be issued in accordance with sections 21.197 and 21.199 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR 21.197 and 21.199) to operate the airplane to a location where the requirements of this AD can be accomplished.
