AD: McDonnell Douglas

AD NUMBER: 2010-13-06

MANUFACTURER: McDonnell Douglas Corporation Model DC- 10-10, DC-10-10F, and MD-10-10F Airplanes
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2010-13-06

SUMMARY: This AD requires a one-time high frequency eddy current inspection of fastener holes for cracks at the left and right side wing rear spar lower cap at station Xors=345, and other specified and corrective actions if necessary. This AD results from a report of three instances of Model DC-10-10F airplanes having fuel leaks in the wing rear spar lower cap at station Xors=345. The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent cracks in the spar cap, which could lead to cracking of the lower wing skin, fuel leaks, and the inability of the structure to sustain limit load.
