ALERTALERT Service Bulletin Number: 737-53A1204 Summary Date: June 19, 2003 Revision 1: March 26, 2007 ATA System: 5311 SUBJECT: FUSELAGE - Main Frame - Frames and Bulkheads - Body Station BS 360 - BS 348.2 and BS 303.9 - BS 294.5 Stringers S-7L - S-16L Left Intercostal Inspection / Repair / Modification

THIS BULLETIN IS SENT TO THE OPERATORS OF RECORD OF THE AIRPLANES SHOWN IN PARAGRAPH 1.A., EFFECTIVITY. IF AN AIRPLANE HAS BEEN LEASED OR SOLD, SEND THIS SERVICE BULLETIN TO THE NEW OPERATOR. IF APPLICABLE SPARES HAVE BEEN SOLD, SEND THIS SERVICE BULLETIN TO THE NEW OWNER.

CONCURRENT REQUIREMENTS None

BACKGROUND Several operators have reported airplanes with fatigue cracks in the intercostals on the forward and aft side of the forward entry door. The cracks are caused by fatigue from pressure loads applied at door stop fittings.

Incorporation of this service bulletin will prevent a possible decompression and unscheduled down time.

Prior to the original release of this service bulletin, eleven operators had reported airplanes with fatigue cracks in the intercostal web at body station (BS) 358.5 and stringer (S)-16 left. The cracks extend from the inboard edge of the intercostal through tooling or fastener holes and terminate at the 2.0 inch diameter lightening hole.

Three operators had reported four airplanes with cracks in intercostals at S-11L, S-12L and S-13L on the forward and aft side of the forward entry door. All additional cracks were in the radius of return flanges of the webs and attachment clips. One operator had reported one airplane with cracks in the stringer splice channels at S-14L and S-15L on the aft side of the forward entry door. The cracks were in the intercostal web attachment flange at the aft end of the intercostal.

Since the original release of this service bulletin, many operators have reported over one hundred cracks.

Cracks have been found at all doorstop and hinge support intercostals on both the forward and aft side of the forward entry door. Operators have also reported cracks on several airplanes at multiple intercostal locations.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2005-20-03 which requires incorporation of this service bulletin.

Boeing Structural Item Interim Advisory (SIIA) 737-183 is related to this service bulletin.

Boeing Service Related Problem (SRP) 737-SRP-53-0266 is related to this service bulletin.

ACTION The airplane effectivity is divided in two groups. Group 1 is for passenger airplanes and Group 2 is for cargo airplanes.

For Group 1 passenger airplanes gain access to stringer S-7L - S-16L intercostals forward of the forward entry door (BS 303.9 - BS 294.5) and aft of the forward entry door (BS 360 - BS 348.2).

For Group 2 cargo airplanes gain access to stringer S-7L - S-16L intercostals forward of the forward entry door (BS 303.9 - BS 294.5) and aft of the forward entry door (BS 360 - BS 348.2).

Inspect the intercostal webs, attachment clips, straps, stringers and stringer splice channels for cracks. Refer to Part 1 and Part 2 for Group 1 passenger airplanes and Part 3 and Part 4 for Group 2 cargo airplanes. If cracks are found at S-16L aft of the forward entry door between BS 360 and BS 351.2 for group 1 airplanes, repair as given in Accomplishment Instructions. If cracks or damage is found at any other stringer locations contact Boeing for repair instructions.

Repeat inspections of the intercostals forward and aft of the forward entry door as required in Section 1.E.

Compliance of this service bulletin.

EFFECTIVITY All 737-100/200/200C/300/400/500 series airplanes divided into two groups. Group 1 is for passenger airplanes and Group 2 is for the cargo airplanes.

COMPLIANCE See Section 1.E. Compliance for Boeing recommended compliance times and inspection intervals.
