Commercial Airplanes 747 Service Bulletin SummaryNumber: 747-27A2513Original Issue: February 04, 2014 Revision 1: July 18, 2014 ATA System: 2731 2900 5510 SUBJECT: FLIGHT CONTROLS - Elevator Control System - Inboard Elevator Compensator Installation and Power Control Package Replacement

CONCURRENT REQUIREMENTS None.

BACKGROUND The change given in this service bulletin will help to prevent divergent flutter or unacceptable vibration that can occur in certain parts of the flight envelope if two hydraulic systems are not functional. Divergent flutter could result in the possible loss of control of the airplane.

Boeing analysis found that the existing internal compensators to the two inboard elevator power control package (PCP) provided insufficient hydraulic capacity for retained stiffness of the elevator surface when two hydraulic systems are not functional. This service bulletin installs two (2) larger external compensators for each of the two

(2) inboard elevator PCP. This replacement provides sufficient hydraulic capacity to prevent divergent flutter or unacceptable vibration.

This service bulletin also refers to a Parker service bulletin. The Parker service bulletin gives instructions to rework the existing inboard elevator PCP that has internal compensators into the new inboard elevator PCP with internal compensators removed. This service bulletin gives instructions to replace the existing PCP internal compensators with larger external compensators and new design of inboard elevator PCP. Replace existing brackets and hydraulic tubing to accommodate the new external compensators.
