AD: The Boeing Company Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2018-06-07

PRODUCT: Certain Boeing Model 757-200, -200CB, and -300 series airplanes.

ACTION: Final Rule.

SUMMARY:   This AD was prompted by a report of fatigue cracking found in a certain fuselage frame, which severed the inner chord and web. This AD requires inspecting the fuselage frame for existing repairs, repetitive inspections, and applicable repairs.

DATES: This AD is effective May 3, 2018.

COST: The FAA estimates that this AD affects 606 airplanes of U.S. registry. The cost of compliance is estimated as follows:

  • Inspection for existing frame repairs: 1 work-hour × $85 per hour = $85
  • Repetitive high and low frequency inspections for Groups 1 through 3 airplanes (598 airplanes): 48 work-hours × $85 per hour = $4,080 per inspection cycle.
  • Repetitive high and low frequency inspections for Groups 4 and 5 airplanes (8 airplanes): 26 work-hours × $85 per hour = $2,210 per inspection cycle
