AD: Boeing

AD NUMBER: 2008-05-06
MANUFACTURER: Boeing
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2008-05-06
SUMMARY:
We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Boeing Model 737-100, -200,-300, -400, and -500 series airplanes.

This AD requires repetitive inspections for fatigue cracking in the longitudinal floor beam web, upper chord, and lower chord located at certain body stations,and repair if necessary.

This AD results from several reports of cracks in the center wing box longitudinal floor beams, upper chord, and lower chord.

We are issuing this AD to detect and correct fatigue cracking of the upper and lower chords and web of the longitudinal floor beams,which could result in rapid loss of cabin pressure.
