Boeing Proposes New Airworthiness Directive for Model 777 Airplanes

The Boeing Company is proposing a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Model 777 airplanes to inspect and address potential damage to the slat track assembly and outboard slat main track slat cans, which could lead to fuel leakage. The proposed AD aims to detect and correct damage to prevent excessive fuel leakage into the fixed wing leading edge.
