Airworthiness Directive 00-19815
one-timeAirworthiness Directives; Boeing Model 737, 757, 767, and 777 Series Airplanes
What this AD requires
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD); applicable to certain Boeing Model 737, 757, 767, and 777 series airplanes; that requires a one-time general visual inspection to determine the vendor and manufacturing date of all oxygen masks in the passenger cabin; and corrective action, if necessary. This amendment is prompted by a report that passengers were unable to activate supplemental oxygen generators during an in-flight decompression due to stress corrosion cracking of the crimped copper alloy ferrules used to secure loops on the lanyard ends. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent failure of the supplemental oxygen system to deliver oxygen to the passengers and flight attendants in the event of decompression, which could result in injury to passengers and flight attendants.
Which aircraft AD 00-19815 applies to
Whether AD 00-19815 actually applies to your aircraft (by serial and installed parts) and whether it’s already complied with comes from that aircraft’s records.
How AD compliance is recorded
A valid compliance record (14 CFR 43.9) states:
Tailplate reads a tail number’s logbooks and matches every applicable AD — including this one — to its compliance evidence, with recurring next-due dates computed.
