AD: The Boeing Company Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2015-17-24

PRODUCT: Certain Boeing Model 787-8 airplanes.

ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: This AD was prompted by numerous reports of failures of the proximity sensor within the slat skew detection mechanism assembly (DMA) leading to slats up landing events.

This AD requires replacing the slat skew DMAs with new slat skew DMAs, and marking the existing identification plates on the slat with the new part number.

The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent failure of the proximity sensor, which could result in the slats being shut down and a slats up high speed landing. This condition, in combination with abnormal landing conditions such as a short runway or adverse weather conditions, could result in a runway excursion.

DATES: This AD is effective October 7, 2015.

FMI: AD
