Boeing Issues Airworthiness Directive for 747-100, 747-200B, 747-200C, 747-200F, 747SP, and 747SR Series Airplanes

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has adopted a new airworthiness directive requiring inspections, repairs, and modifications to prevent chafing of electrical wire bundles on certain Boeing 747 models, which could lead to smoke in the cockpit and reduced fire-fighting capabilities.
