Airworthiness Directives; Boeing Model 767 Series Airplanes

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to all Boeing Model 767 series airplanes, that requires repetitive operational tests to verify proper deployment of the ram air turbine (RAT), and replacement of the rotary actuator motor with a new or serviceable rotary actuator motor, if necessary. This amendment is prompted by reports of corroded rotary actuator motors of the RAT found on in-service airplanes. The actions specified by this AD are intended to ensure that the RAT actuator motor is not corroded to the point where it may result in the failure of the RAT to deploy and subsequently result in loss of emergency hydraulic power to the flight controls in the event that power is lost in both engines.
