Airworthiness Directives; Boeing Model 767 Series Airplanes


AGENCY:
 
Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.


ACTION:
 
Final rule; correction.


–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––


SUMMARY:
 
This document corrects two typographical errors that appeared in airworthiness


directive (AD) 98-07-26, which was published in the Federal Register on April 6, 1998 (63 FR


16681). The typographical errors resulted in a reference to an incorrect part number and incorrect


section of the referenced service information. This AD is applicable to certain Boeing Model 767


series airplanes. This AD requires detailed visual inspection(s) for damage or chafing of certain


electrical wire bundles and for clearance between the wire bundles and adjacent forward galley air


chiller; and follow-on corrective actions.


DATES:
 
Effective April 21, 1998.


The incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in the regulations was previously


approved by the Director of the Federal Register as of April 21, 1998 (63 FR 16681, April 6, 1998).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
 
Airworthiness Directive (AD) 98-07-26, amendment 39-


10448, applicable to certain Boeing Model 767 series airplanes, was published in the Federal Register


on April 6, 1998 (63 FR 16681). That AD requires detailed visual inspection(s) for damage or


chafing of certain electrical wire bundles and for clearance between the wire bundles and adjacent


forward galley air chiller; and follow-on corrective actions.


As published, that AD contained two typographical errors in paragraphs (a)(1)(ii), (a)(2),


(a)(3)(ii), and (a)(4). First, those paragraphs identified ''Section 20-00-11'' of the Boeing Standard


Wiring Practices Manual as the appropriate source of service information for accomplishment of the


actions. However, the correct section should have been identified as ''Section 20-10-11.'' Second,
2


those paragraphs identified ''TFX-2X standard wall thickness (sleeve)'' as one of the appropriate


materials to protect the bundles. However, part number (P/N) ''TFX-2X'' was indicated inadvertently


in those paragraphs instead of the correct P/N ''TFE-2X.'' (In fact, P/N ''TFX-2X'' does not exist.)


Since no other part of the regulatory information has been changed, the final rule is not being


republished.


The effective date of this AD remains April 21, 1998.


In final rule, FR Doc. 98-8705, published on April 6, 1998 (63 FR 16681), make the following


corrections:
