2007-25-18: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Boeing Model 747-400 and 747-400D series airplanes. For certain airplanes, this AD requires modifying the stowage bin ladder of zone E, installing new intercostals, removing existing tie rods, and installing new tie rods. For certain other airplanes, this AD requires modifying the lateral shear beam. This AD results from a report indicating that the overhead lateral shear beam aft of main entry door number 5 reacts to certain loads from the weight of the center stowage bins of zone E and additional loads. We are issuing this AD to prevent detachment of the center stowage bins of zone E at forward load levels less than 9g during an emergency landing, which could cause injury to passengers and/or crew and could impede subsequent rapid evacuation.

Applies to Ka2B, Ka6, Ka6B, Ka6BR, Ka6C, Ka6CR, K7, K8, and AS-K13 gliders all serial numbers, certificated in all categories. Compliance is required as indicated. To prevent structural failure of the elevator and loss of elevator control accomplish the following: (a) Within the next 10 hours' time in service after the effective date of this AD, unless already accomplished, remove the elevator from the glider and visually inspect the glue joint between nose rib No. 1 and the nose plywood skin on both elevator halves by probing with a small penknife. (b) If insufficient glue adhesion is determined in accordance with good aeronautical practices, before further flight, remove elevator rib No. 1 in its entirety, prepare for new glue joint by roughing the surfaces to be glued, reinstall rib No. 1 by regluing, and cover joints between rib No. 1 and nose skin with fabric to protect joint against moisture.This amendment becomes effective November 14, 1975.
