Boeing Issues Airworthiness Directive for 767-200 and -300 Series Airplanes

The Boeing Company has issued a new airworthiness directive for certain 767-200 and -300 series airplanes to address fatigue cracking of the aft pressure bulkhead, which could lead to rapid decompression and loss of control. The directive requires repetitive inspections, repair or replacement of cracked bulkheads, and eventual replacement of the affected bulkhead.
