ADDRESSES: FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: REGULATORY TEXT: 65-14-04 LOCKHEED: Amdt. 39-94 Part 39 Federal Register June 26, 1965. Applies to Model 1329 Aircraft Serial Numbers 5001 through 5057. Compliance required within the next 25 hours' time in service after the effective date of this AD unless already accomplished. To prevent further failures in the rudder cable turnbarrel lockwire, accomplish the following: (a) Gain access to the JE-99 torque tube assembly through the JF214-79 doors, left and right, on fuselage-to-empennage fairing. (b) Inspect pivot joint of each JE-99 torque arm for installation of NAS43HT4-6 spacer. (c) Check for freedom of movement of JC300-14 lockwire plates. If installed, the NAS43HT4-6 spacer provides freedom of movement of JC300-14 lockwire plate. (d) If NAS43HT4-6 spacers are installed and JC300-14 lockwire plates move freely, secure JF214-79 doors and return aircraft to service. (e) If inspection reveals missing spacer, install NAS43HT4-6 spacer, secure JF214- 79 doors, and return aircraft to service. (Lockheed Alert Service Bulletin No. 329-203, dated May 13, 1965, covers this subject.) This directive effective June 26, 1965. FOOTER:
