Is AD 2009-20-09 a recurring Airworthiness Directive?

Yes — AD 2009-20-09 requires a repetitive inspection. Next-due depends on the aircraft's time in service.

Which aircraft does AD 2009-20-09 apply to?

AD 2009-20-09 applies to Boeing — models 767-200, 767-300, 767-300F, 767. Serial/part conditions may narrow it to specific aircraft.

Airworthiness Directives; Boeing Model 767-200, -300, and -300F Series Airplanes

What this AD requires

We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Boeing Model 767-200, -300, and -300F series airplanes. This AD requires repetitive inspections for fatigue cracking and corrosion of the upper link fuse pin of the nacelle struts, and related investigative and corrective actions if necessary. This AD also provides terminating action for the repetitive inspections. This AD results from two reports of cracked upper link fuse pins. We are issuing this AD to prevent fatigue cracking or corrosion of the upper link fuse pin, which could result in failure of the fuse pin and consequent reduced structural integrity of the nacelle strut and possible separation of the strut and engine from the airplane during flight.

Repetitive inspection. Re-inspect. The next-due date/hours depend on this aircraft’s time in service — a records report computes it from the logbooks.

Models767-200, 767-300, 767-300F, 767

Applies to airplanes identified in Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 767-54A0074, Revision 1, dated April 24, 2008.

Whether AD 2009-20-09 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 2009-20-09 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.
