Unsafe Condition

Corrosion in the rear cargo door and luggage auxiliary structure could result in structural failure of the cargo door and loss of the door during flight, and consequent rapid decompression, aerodynamic instability, and/or damage to other fuselage structures.

Required Actions

Perform a one-time visual inspection of the rear cargo door and luggage auxiliary structure for corrosion, followed by removal and repair of any corrosion found before further flight. Drill drain holes and apply corrosion preventive and sealing compound inside the door. Modify the door to provide inspection holes for borescope inspections. Conduct repetitive borescope inspections every 6,000 hours or 3 years for corrosion, repairing any findings before further flight.
