Action
Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).
Summary
The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain The Boeing Company Model 737-300, -400, and -800 series airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by a report that the protective spiral wrap used on certain galley wire bundles does not have the correct flammability properties. This proposed AD would require inspecting certain galleys to determine part numbers, inspecting for an existing galley modification placard and marking on galleys with affected part numbers, and replacing wire bundle spiral wrap sleeving as applicable. This proposed AD would also prohibit the installation of affected parts. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
