AD: Boeing

AD NUMBER: 2007-03-01
MANUFACTURER: Boeing
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2007-03-01
SUMMARY:
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Boeing Model 757 airplanes.This AD requires inspecting certain power feeder wire bundles for damage, inspecting the support clamps for these wire bundles to determine whether the clamps are properly installed, and performing corrective actions if necessary. This AD results from a report that a power feeder wire bundle chafed against the number six auxiliary slat track, causing electrical wires in the bundle to arc, which damaged both the auxiliary slat track and power feeder wires. We are issuing this AD to prevent arcing that could be a possible ignition source for leaked flammable fluids, which could result in a fire. Arcing could also result in a loss of power from the generator connected to the power feeder wire bundle, and consequent loss of systems, which could reduce controllability of the airplane.
