Airworthiness Directives; Lockheed Model L-1011-385-1 Series Airplanes

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to all Lockheed Model L-1011-385-1 series airplanes, that requires implementation of a Supplemental Inspection Document (SID) program of structural inspections to detect fatigue cracking, and repair, if necessary, to ensure continued airworthiness of these airplanes as they approach the manufacturer's original fatigue design life goal. This amendment is prompted by a structural re-evaluation by the manufacturer that identified certain structural details where fatigue damage is likely to occur. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent fatigue cracking that could compromise the structural integrity of these airplanes.
