Models737

Amendment 39-5159; applies to Model 737 series airplanes, certificated in any category, listed in Boeing Service Bulletin 737-57-1137, Revision 2, dated November 9 [1984]; modification per Part IV of the Accomplishment Instructions in that SB (or later FAA-approved revisions); airplanes may be ferried to a base for compliance.

Whether AD 85-22-02 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 85-22-02 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.
