  • 2021-01100 — Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes
    Type:Proposed Rule
    Citation:86 FR 6276
    Reading Time:about 15 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a supplemental notice on revising previous proposals concerning certain Boeing 737 airplanes. This revision includes reducing the compliance time for planes with specific winglets due to potential unsafe conditions from cracks in the wing's lower skin. The FAA is seeking public comments on the revised proposal by March 8, 2021, using several submission methods. This proposed directive aims at ensuring the structural integrity and safety of the affected Boeing 737 models.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA wants to make sure certain Boeing airplanes stay safe by checking them faster for cracks in their wings. They're asking people to share their thoughts on this new rule by a certain date.

  • 2025-04319 — Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes
    Type:Rule
    Citation:90 FR 12452
    Reading Time:about 13 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a new rule concerning the Boeing 737-800 airplanes converted to freighters. This rule mandates earlier ultrasonic inspections of the airplane's skin under the drag link assembly to address any potential cracking issues. These inspections are essential because undetected cracks could lead to rapid decompression and compromise the airplane’s structural integrity. The rule is based on prior assessments indicating that the previous inspection deadlines were inadequate for ensuring safety.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA is making sure certain Boeing airplanes are extra safe by checking them for hidden cracks sooner than before, just like checking a toy for cracks before it might break. This helps keep the airplanes strong and everyone safe while flying.

  • 2024-28552 — Airworthiness Directives; Cirrus Design Corporation Airplanes
    Type:Rule
    Citation:89 FR 96863
    Reading Time:about 15 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a new rule, effective December 23, 2024, aimed at improving the safety of Cirrus Design Corporation models SR20, SR22, and SR22T airplanes. This rule requires regular inspections and, if necessary, the replacement of the upper power lever due to reports of failures and cracks that could lead to loss of engine control. Inspections must be carried out at specified intervals, and results must be reported to the FAA. The rule was established without prior public comment due to the potential risk to safety, and the FAA is considering further actions pending the development of a permanent solution by the manufacturer.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA wants airplanes from a company called Cirrus to be checked regularly because a part, like a lever, can break and that might make the airplane difficult to control. They want people to look at the lever to make sure it's not cracked, change it if it is, and tell them what they find.
