AD NUMBER: 2017-22-12

PRODUCT: All Boeing Model 757-200, -200PF, and -200CB series airplanes.

ACTION: Final Rule.

This AD requires determining the type of trailing edge slat wedges of the leading edge slats, repetitive inspections for disbonding on certain trailing edge slat wedges, and corrective actions if necessary.

This AD also provides an optional terminating action for the repetitive inspections.

COST: The FAA estimates that this AD will affect 469 airplanes of U.S. registry. The cost of compliance is estimated to be Up to $2,040 per aircraft per inspection cycle.

DATES: This AD is effective December 26, 2017.
