Airworthiness Directive 95-13-06
one-timeAirworthiness Directives; Boeing Model 747 Series Airplanes Equipped With General Electric Model CF6-80C2 Series Engines or Pratt & Whitney Model PW4000 Series Engines
What this AD requires
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Boeing Model 747 series airplanes, that requires modification of the nacelle strut and wing structure, inspections and checks to detect discrepancies, and correction of discrepancies. This amendment is prompted by the development of a modification of the strut and wing structure that improves the damage tolerance capability and durability of the strut-to-wing attachments, and reduces reliance on non-routine inspections of those attachments. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent failure of the strut and subsequent loss of the engine.
Which aircraft AD 95-13-06 applies to
Applies to Boeing 747 airplanes; requires modification of the nacelle strut and wing structure per Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 747-54A2156, dated December 15, 1994, within 80 months of the effective date, to prevent failure of the strut and subsequent loss of the engine. Terminating action for earlier ADs 93-17-07, 93-03-14, and 93-24-51.
Whether AD 95-13-06 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.
