  • 2025-02040 — Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes
    Type:Rule
    Citation:90 FR 8658
    Reading Time:about 11 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Boeing Model 767-200, -300, and -400ER series airplanes. This AD requires actions to prevent water leakage from damaging essential electronic components after a report showed potential safety issues during potable water servicing. The directive mandates the installation of protective measures like hoseducts and a potable water system leakage test. These changes are critical to ensure the airplanes remain safe for flight and landing. The AD is effective from March 7, 2025, and also includes specifics on compliance and exceptions for certain aircraft configurations.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA has a new safety rule for some Boeing airplanes to stop water from getting into important parts during water-filling jobs by adding special covers and doing water checks so the planes stay safe to fly.

    Type:Proposed Rule
    Citation:86 FR 11158
    Reading Time:about 23 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is proposing changes to the rules governing certain Boeing 767 models. This proposal aims to add more airplanes to the list that require updates to their maintenance or inspection programs with new or stricter airworthiness limitations. These changes aim to address safety issues due to parts that might wear out or fail over time. Because these new rules will impose more requirements compared to earlier proposals, the FAA is reopening the comment period to gather public feedback until April 12, 2021.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA wants to make sure certain Boeing airplanes are even safer by adding more checks and rules. They are asking people what they think about these new rules until April 12, 2021.

  • 2025-00144 — Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes
    Type:Rule
    Citation:90 FR 1368
    Reading Time:about 10 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a final rule for all Boeing 767-200, -300, and -300F airplanes, effective February 12, 2025. This new rule addresses a safety concern where a grinder used during maintenance exceeded its input parameters, possibly causing heat damage to the main landing gear cylinder. The directive requires replacing the affected cylinders to prevent unsafe conditions like landing gear collapse, which could lead to loss of control of the airplane. The rule clarifies that installing a specific Supplemental Type Certificate does not affect compliance with the directive, and it includes provisions for alternative methods of compliance and material incorporations by reference.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA has made a new rule that says if some parts of a plane's landing gear got too hot when fixed, they need to be replaced to keep the plane safe. This is important because it helps prevent the plane from having a rough landing or losing control.

  • 2025-06061 — Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes
    Type:Proposed Rule
    Citation:90 FR 15318
    Reading Time:about 12 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is proposing a new rule to inspect certain Boeing 767 airplanes for cracks in specific areas, due to a discovered defect at a fastener hole. This rule, part of an Airworthiness Directive (AD), requires owners to conduct inspections and make any necessary repairs to avoid compromising the planes' structural integrity. The rule aims to ensure safety by addressing potential issues before they become serious. Comments on this proposal are invited until May 27, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA wants to make sure certain Boeing planes are safe by checking for cracks, kind of like checking a toy to make sure it isn't broken. They're asking people to share their thoughts about this plan by the end of May 2025.

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has proposed a new rule aimed at improving safety for certain Boeing 767 airplane models. This is in response to significant changes in limitations related to preventing fuel tank ignition and updating the nitrogen generation system. The proposed rule would require changes to maintenance programs for these aircraft to address potential safety hazards. The FAA is seeking public comments on this proposal by April 12, 2021.

    Simple Explanation

    The government wants to make some airplanes safer by changing how they're checked and fixed to stop the fuel from catching fire. They are asking people to tell them what they think about these changes.
