Action
Final rule.
Summary
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all The Boeing Company Model 747-100, -100B, -100B SUD, -200B, -200C, - 200F, -300, -400, -400D, -400F, 747SP, and 747SR series airplanes. This AD was prompted by reports of corrosion damage found on a certain satellite communications (SATCOM) high gain antenna adapter plate. This AD requires repetitive detailed inspections (DETs) of the SATCOM high gain antenna adapter plate for corrosion and applicable on-condition actions. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
