AD: Boeing

AD NUMBER: 2009-16-07

MANUFACTURER: Boeing Model 737-600, -700, -700C, - 800, and -900 Series Airplanes
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2009-16-07

SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding an existing airworthiness directive (AD), which applies to certain Boeing Model 737-600, -700, -700C, -800, and -900 series airplanes. This new AD requires an additional operational test of the P5-14 panel. This AD results from a report of an electrical burning smell in the flight compartment. We are issuing this AD to prevent wire bundles from contacting the overhead dripshield panel and modules in the P5 overhead panel, which could result in electrical arcing and shorting of the electrical connector and consequent loss of several critical systems essential for safe flight; and to ensure proper operation of the passenger oxygen system. If an improperly functioning passenger oxygen system goes undetected, the passenger oxygen mask could fail to deploy and result in possible incapacitation of passengers during a depressurization event.
