Unsafe Condition

The horizontal stabilizer trim actuator (P/N 10-61326-4 or -5) may have insufficient stall torque below 350 inch pounds, which could reduce horizontal stabilizer trim capability.

AI-generated summary from the source AD text. Verify against the official source before acting.

Required Actions

Within six months after the effective date (May 6, 1980), accomplish either: A) Test the actuator stall torque per Boeing SB 737-27-1101, replace those with less than 350 inch pounds torque, and conduct repetitive tests per Figure 2 intervals; B) Replace P/N 10-61326-4/-5 with P/N 10-61326-6 per SB 737-27-1101; or C) Perform an equivalent inspection/installation approved by the FAA Northwest Region.

REGULATORY TEXT:  
80-09-05 BOEING: Amendment 39-3760. Applies to all 737-100 and -200 series airplanes certificated at takeoff weights in excess of 97,800 pounds and containing the horizontal stabilizer trim actuator P/N 10-61326-4 or P/N 10-61326-5.

NOTE: The 737 airplanes from line 482 and on were delivered with horizontal stabilizer trim actuator P/N 10-61326-6. This AD will apply to those 737 airplanes line number 482 and on if P/N 10-61326-4 or -5 have been exchanged for P/N 10-61326-6.

Compliance is required as follows: To assure sufficient horizontal stabilizer trim capability, accomplish either A, B or C below within the next six (6) months after the effective date of this AD, unless already accomplished.

A. For horizontal stabilizer trim actuators having the P/N 10-61326-4 or P/N 10-61326- 5, test the actuator stall torque in accordance with Boeing Service Bulletin No. 737-27-1101, dated February 1, 1980. The actuators found to have less than 350 inch pounds of torque must be replaced with a serviceable actuator P/N 10-61326-4, -5, or -6. Thereafter, for the actuators P/N 10-61326-4 and -5, conduct repetitive torque test per the "Actual Stall Torque/Maximum Test Interval" chart, Figure 2, of that service bulletin at intervals not to exceed the maximum test intervals (hours) indicated by the curve on the chart.

B. Replace the horizontal stabilizer trim actuator, Boeing P/N 10-61326-4 or -5 with stabilizer trim actuator, Boeing P/N 10-63126-6 in accordance with Boeing Service Bulletin No. 737-27-1101, dated February 1, 1980. Replacing the stabilizer trim actuator, Boeing P/N 10- 61326-4 or -5, with Boeing P/N 10-61326-6 is the terminating requirement for this AD.

C. Perform an equivalent inspection and/or installation approved by the Chief, Engineering and Manufacturing Branch, FAA Northwest Region.

The manufacturer's specifications and procedures identified and described in this directive are incorporated herein and made a part hereof pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552(a)(1). All persons affected by this directive who have not already received these documents from the manufacturer may obtain copies upon request to Boeing Commercial Airplane Company, P.O. Box 3707, Seattle, Washington 98124. These documents may also be examined at FAA, Northwest Region, 9010 East Marginal Way South, Seattle, Washington 98108.

This amendment supersedes AD 70-25-10.

This amendment becomes effective May 6, 1980.
