AD: The Boeing Company Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2016-11-04

PRODUCT: All Boeing 737-300, -400, and -500 series airplanes.

ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2011-23-05 for the airplanes listed above.

AD 2011-23-05 required repetitive inspections for cracking of the 1.04-inch nominal diameter wire penetration hole, and applicable related investigative and corrective actions.

This new AD adds new inspection areas, a modification that terminates certain inspections, post-modification inspections, and repair if necessary.

This AD was prompted by an evaluation by the design approval holder (DAH) that indicates the fuselage frames and frame reinforcements are subject to widespread fatigue damage (WFD).

The FAA is issuing this AD to detect and correct fatigue cracking of the fuselage frames and frame reinforcements that could result in reduced structural integrity of the airplane.

DATES: This AD is effective July 6, 2016.

FMI: AD
