SUMMARY:

This AD is applicable to certain Boeing Model 727 series airplanes that have been converted from a passenger- to a cargo-carrying (“freighter”) configuration. This AD requires, among other actions, installation of a fail-safe hinge, redesigned main deck cargo door warning and power control systems, and 9g crash barrier.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2002-16-22, amendment 39-12861, applicable to certain Boeing Model 727 series airplanes that have been converted from a passenger- to a cargo-carrying (“freighter”) configuration, was published in the Federal Register on August 15, 2002 (67 FR 53434). That AD requires, among other actions, installation of a fail-safe hinge, redesigned main deck cargo door warning and power control systems, and 9g crash barrier.

On August 16, 2004, we issued a final rule, correction (69 FR 50299, August 16, 2004), to AD 2002-16-22. The final rule, correction corrects an error that resulted in an incorrect reference to a supplemental type certificate. As published, the title of final rule, correction states “Boeing Model 727 Series Airplanes Modified with Supplemental Type Certificate SA1767S0 or SA1768SO.” However, the correct applicable supplemental type certificates (STC) are SA1444SO, SA1509SO, SA1543SO, or SA1896SO, as specified in AD 2002-16-22.

Since no other part of the regulatory information has been changed, the final rule is not being republished in the Federal Register.

The effective date of this AD remains September 19, 2002.
