AD: The Boeing Company Airplanes (737)

AD NUMBER: 2012-23-14

PRODUCT: Certain The Boeing Company Model 737-100, -200, -200C, -300, -400, and -500 series airplanes.
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2012-23-14
ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY:  This AD was prompted by a report of a crack found in the fuselage skin under the aft drain mast. This AD requires a detailed inspection for cracking and corrosion of the channel and fillers adjacent to the drain mast bolts, an inspection to determine the location of the bonding strap, a measurement of the washers under the drain mast bolts, and related investigative actions and repair if necessary.

The FAA is issuing this AD to detect and correct cracking in the fuselage skin and internal support structure, which could result in uncontrolled decompression of the airplane.

DATES: This AD is effective January 7, 2013.
