AD: Boeing (757)

AD NUMBER: 2012-25-11

PRODUCT: Certain Boeing 757-200, -200CB, and -300 series airplanes.
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2012-25-11
ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY:  The FAA is superseding an existing airworthiness directive (AD) for the product listed above. That AD currently requires initial and repetitive inspections of the fuselage skin and bear strap at the forward, upper corner of the L1 entry door cutout for cracking, and repair if necessary. That action also provides an optional terminating action for the repetitive inspections. That AD also requires additional inspections for airplanes having repairs or preventative modifications installed and inspections for certain other airplanes.

This AD requires the previous actions with additional airplane group configurations added to paragraph (n) of this AD. This AD was prompted by a determination that certain airplane group configurations in paragraph (n) of the existing AD were inadvertently removed in the final rule. The FAA is issuing this AD to detect and correct cracking of the fuselage skin and bear strap at the forward upper corner of the L1 entry door cutout, which could result in reduced structural integrity of the L1 entry door, and consequent rapid decompression of the airplane.

DATES: This AD is effective January 10, 2013.

FMI: AD
