AD: Boeing

MANUFACTURER: Boeing
SUBJECT:
Airworthiness Directive 2004-22-24
SUMMARY: This amendment supersedes an existing airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to all Boeing Model 707 and 720 series airplanes, that currently requires inspections of the upper and lower chords of the wing front and rear spars, repair if necessary, and application of corrosion inhibitor to the inspected areas. This amendment removes the requirements of the existing AD, requires new detailed inspections and new high frequency eddy current (HFEC) inspections for corrosion and cracking, and requires certain related follow-on and investigative actions, if necessary. This amendment also expands the area of inspection to include the dry bay areas. The actions specified by this AD are intended to find and fix corrosion and stress corrosion cracking of the upper and lower chords on the wing front and rear spars, which could result in reduced structural integrity of the wing. This action is intended to address the identified unsafe condition.
