Airworthiness Directive 2017-28378
one-timeAirworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes
What this AD requires
We are superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2017-02-03, which applied to certain The Boeing Company Model 767-200, -300, and - 400ER series airplanes. AD 2017-02-03 required inspection of the plastic potable water coupling, and corrective actions if necessary; installation of new spray shrouds; and inspection of previously installed spray shields, and related investigative and corrective actions if necessary. This AD adds airplanes to the applicability and, for certain airplanes, requires hose assembly removals and installations. This AD was prompted by a report of a malfunction of the engine indication and crew alerting system (EICAS) during flight. We are issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Which aircraft AD 2017-28378 applies to
Applicability as identified in Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 767-38A0073, Revision 3, dated September 8, 2016.
Whether AD 2017-28378 actually applies to your aircraft (by serial and installed parts) and whether it’s already complied with comes from that aircraft’s records.
Supersession
Supersedes AD 2017-02-03.
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.
