AD: Boeing

AD NUMBER: AD 2009-26-03

MANUFACTURER: Boeing Model 737-300, -400, -500, -600, -700, -700C, -800, and -900, and 747-400 Series Airplanes; and Model 757, 767, and 777 Airplanes
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive AD 2009-26-03

SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Boeing Model 737-300, -400, -500, -600, -700, -700C, -800, and -900, and 747-400 series airplanes; and Model 757, 767, and 777 airplanes. This AD requires modifying the static inverter by replacing resistor R170 with a new resistor and relocating the new resistor. This AD results from evaluation of the carbon resistor, which revealed a failure mode that can cause the resistor to ignite, involving adjacent capacitors as well. We are issuing this AD to prevent a standby static inverter from overheating, which could result in smoke in the flight deck and cabin and loss of the electrical standby power system.

DATES: This AD becomes effective February 1, 2010. The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in the AD as of February 1, 2010.
