Unsafe Condition

During inspection on an aeroplane in final assembly line, un-torqued nuts on slat and flap shaft junctions have been reported. This condition, if not detected and corrected, in case of two or more nuts missing or incorrectly torqued on a shaft junction and concurrent failure of a different shaft, could lead to uncommanded slat or flap movement, possibly resulting in loss of control of the aeroplane.

Required Actions

A one-time detailed inspection (DET) of each affected junction, and, depending on findings, accomplishment of applicable corrective action(s), including ensuring correct torque on all nuts and bolts, applying torque red line markings on affected nuts, and replacing any missing bolt.
