Boeing Issues Airworthiness Directive for 737-100 to -500 Series Airplanes

The Boeing Company has issued a new airworthiness directive for certain 737-100, -200, -200C, -300, -400, and -500 series airplanes to address corrosion issues with analog transient suppression devices (ATSDs). The directive aims to prevent fuel tank explosions and loss of airplane by revising maintenance programs to limit ATSD usage.
