SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : Background AD 2024–12–09, Amendment 39– 22773 (89 FR 58257, July 18, 2024), requires an inspection or records check of the wing upper skin at the drag fitting attachment holes for any existing repair; repetitive inspections for loose fasteners, skin cracking, and shim migration at the upper link drag fittings, and for cracking in the diagonal brace and diagonal brace fittings; repetitive inspections for cracking of the fastener holes and loose bolt holes; and applicable on-condition actions for all The Boeing Company Model 757 airplanes. Material Incorporated by Reference Under 1 CFR Part 51 The FAA reviewed Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin 757–57A0073 RB, Revision 3, dated May 5, 2023. This material specifies procedures for a general visual inspection or records check of the wing upper skin at the drag fitting attachment holes for any existing repair; repetitive general visual and detailed inspections for loose fasteners, skin cracking, and shim migration at the upper link drag fittings, and for cracking in the diagonal brace and diagonal brace fittings; repetitive open-hole high frequency eddy current (HFEC) inspections for cracking of the fastener holes and loose bolt holes; and applicable on-condition actions. On- condition actions include performing an ultrasonic inspection for cracks at any repaired upper wing skin location; installing the upper link and upper link pins; replacing drag fittings; installing bolts, washers, and nuts; performing a torque check of fasteners on the affected shims; trimming affected shims and applying chemical conversion coating on the shims, fillet seal, and drag fittings; and repairing cracks, migrated shims, mistorqued bolts, and loose fasteners. This material is reasonably available because the interested parties have access to it through their normal course of business or by the means identified in ADDRESSES . Need for Correction As published, the AD number referenced throughout the final rule is incorrect. The final rule incorrectly references ‘‘AD 2023–12–09.’’ The correct AD number is ‘‘AD 2024–12– 09.’’ Correction of Publication This document corrects an error and correctly adds the AD as an amendment to 14 CFR 39.13. Although no other part of the preamble or regulatory information has been corrected, the FAA is publishing the entire rule in the Federal Register . The effective date of this AD remains August 22, 2024. Since this action only corrects an incorrect AD number, it has no adverse economic impact and imposes no additional burden on any person. Therefore, the FAA has determined that notice and public comment procedures are unnecessary. List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39 Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by reference, Safety. Adoption of the Amendment Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me by the Administrator, the FAA amends part 39 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 39) as follows: PART 39—AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES ■ 1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows: Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701. § 39.13 [Corrected] ■ 2. The FAA amends § 39.13 by: ■ a.
