AI-generated summary from the source AD text. Verify against the official source before acting.
Required Actions
Inspect bogie beam assemblies at specified intervals for nicks, scratches, or impact dents. Replace or rework damaged beams before further flight, with rework procedures depending on defect depth (up to 0.005 inch requires blending and repainting; 0.005 to 0.030 inch requires blending, shot peening, and repainting; over 0.030 inch requires FAA-approved rework procedures).
AI-generated summary from the source AD text. Verify against the official source before acting.
Compliance Time
Within 1000 hours' time in service after the effective date for beams with over 1000 hours' time in service as of the effective date, and prior to 2000 hours' time in service for those with less than 1000 hours, then every 3000 hours' time in service thereafter.
