AD: Boeing 757 Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2014-05-20

PRODUCT: All Boeing Model 757 airplanes.
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2014-05-20
ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: This AD was prompted by reports of fractured rudder pedal pushrod connecting bolts in a rudder pedal assembly. This AD requires repetitive replacements of the rudder pedal pushrod connecting bolts and repetitive inspections of the rudder pedal assembly bolt holes in each of the captain and the first officer rudder pedal assemblies, and if necessary, repair or replacement of worn rudder pedal assemblies.

The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent fracture of the rudder pedal pushrod connecting bolts during pedal use, which could result in large involuntary inputs to the rudder and nose-wheel steering and an asymmetric application of braking, if pedal brakes are applied, leading to a runway excursion.

DATES: This AD is effective April 22, 2014.

FMI: AD
