What this AD requires

The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2022-27- 07, which applied to certain The Boeing Company Model 747-400 and 747-8 series airplanes. AD 2022-27-07 required inspecting for wear of the transfer pump housing inlet check valves and transfer pump motor impeller inlet adapters for the horizontal stabilizer fuel tank and doing corrective actions, if necessary. This AD was prompted by the discovery that certain airplanes were incorrectly included in the applicability of AD 2022-27-07. This AD continues to require inspecting for wear of the transfer pump housing inlet check valves and transfer pump motor impeller inlet adapters for the horizontal stabilizer fuel tank and doing corrective actions, if necessary. This AD also removes certain airplanes from the applicability, redefines the definition of an "activated" horizontal stabilizer fuel tank, and limits the installation of affected parts. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

Models747-400, 747-8, 747

Applies only to airplanes equipped with an activated horizontal stabilizer fuel tank with Crane Aerospace Hydro-Aire horizontal stabilizer fuel transfer pump housings and transfer pump motor impellers.

Whether AD 2023-07-09 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:

Method of compliance — The specific action taken (inspected, replaced, modified) and to what revision.

Date — When the work was done.

Aircraft time — Total time in service / tach at compliance — how recurring next-due is computed.

Signature & certificate — The A&P/IA who returned it to service, with certificate number.

Is AD 2023-07-09 complied with on your aircraft?

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.

Applicability is derived from the FAA directive corpus and is advisory, not a legal airworthiness determination. Compliance is established only from an aircraft’s actual records.
