AD: McDonnell Douglas

AD NUMBER: 2010-20-14

MANUFACTURER: McDonnell Douglas Corporation Model DC- 10-10, DC-10-10F, DC-10-15, DC-10-30, DC-10-30F (KC-10A and KDC-10), DC-10-40, DC-10-40F, MD-10-10F, MD-10-30F, MD-11, and MD-11F Airplanes
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2010-20-14

SUMMARY: This AD requires installing an in-line fuse in certain float level switches and sleeving the wires between the fuel tank and the in- line fuse. For certain airplanes, this AD also requires installing an in-line fuse in certain fuel pump pressure switches. This AD results from fuel system reviews conducted by the manufacturer. The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent fuel tank explosions and consequent loss of the airplane.
