Airworthiness Directives; Boeing Model 737-300, -400, and -500 Series Airplanes

Samenvatting
The FAA proposes to supersede an existing airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to all Boeing Model 737-300, -400, and -500 series airplanes. The existing AD currently requires repetitive inspections of certain connectors located in the main wheel well to detect discrepancies, and corrective action if necessary. This proposed AD would instead mandate a modification. This proposed AD is prompted by the development of a modification intended to address the unsafe condition. We are proposing this AD to prevent discrepancies of certain connectors located in the main wheel well. Those discrepancies could result in electrical arcing of the connectors, uncommanded closure of the engine fuel shut-off valves, and consequent in-flight loss of thrust or engine shutdown from lack of fuel.
