88-24-06 McDONNELL DOUGLAS: Amendment 39-6067. Applies to McDonnell Douglas Model DC-9-10 through -80 series, Model MD-88, and C-9 (Military) series airplanes, Fuselage Numbers 2 through 1510, certificated in any category. Compliance required as indicated, unless previously accomplished.

To preclude separation of the forward passenger or aft service door assist handle, accomplish the following:

A. Within 45 days after the effective date of this AD, inspect the forward entry and aft service doors assist handles and attachment hardware to ascertain if the proper assist handle retaining parts are installed and if the self-locking plate nuts retain appropriate locking torque, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of McDonnell Douglas Alert Service Bulletin A25-302, dated September 21, 1988. If any part is found to be improperly installed, replace prior to further flight, in accordance with the Service Bulletin.

B. An alternate means of compliance or adjustment of the compliance time, which provides an acceptable level of safety may be used when approved by the Manager, Los Angeles Aircraft Certification Office, FAA, Northwest Mountain Region.

NOTE: The request should be forwarded through an FAA Principal Maintenance Inspector (PMI), who may add any comments and then send it to the Manager, Los Angeles Aircraft Certification Office.

C. Special flight permits may be issued in accordance with FAR 21.197 and 21.199 to operate airplanes to a base in order to comply with the requirements of this AD.

All persons affected by this directive who have not already received the appropriate service information from the manufacturer may obtain copies upon request to McDonnell Douglas Corporation, 3855 Lakewood Boulevard, Long Beach, California 90846; Attention: Director of Publications, C1-L00 (54-60).

This amendment, 39-6067, becomes effective December 2, 1988.
