Service Bulletin
Number: 747-54A2230 Summary
Date: October 30, 2008
ATA System: 5400 5430
SUBJECT: NACELLES / PYLONS - Front Spar Chord Inspection and Strut Cap Skin Installation
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
Accomplishment of the inspection and modification in this service bulletin will detect and help prevent cracking 
and fracture of the nacelle strut front spar chord assembly forward of the upper link attachment. Fracture of the 
front spar chord assembly will result in the loss of the strut upper link load path. Continued operation without the 
strut upper link load path could result in the fracture of the diagonal brace and result in an in-flight separation of 
the strut and engine. 
The front spar chord assembly is used to connect the strut to the upper link.  Subsequent to the original issue 
of Boeing Service Bulletin 747-54A2224 Original Issue, an operator reported finding a fractured chord on Strut 
no. 3 on an airplane with approximately 79,800 flight-hours and 15,100 flight-cycles. The fracture occurred 
forward of the rear engine mount bulkhead due to cracking that initiated and was propagated by fatigue from a 
fastener hole. Loss of the upper link load path would result in the transfer of additional loads to the diagonal 
brace load path. The additional loads could result in the fracture of the diagonal brace. The loss of the upper 
link load path combined with the loss of the diagonal brace load path could result in the in-flight separation of 
the strut and engine.
Inspection of the front spar chord assembly will detect cracks or fractures of the front spar chord assembly.  
Installation of a cap skin doubler, if not previously accomplished, and oversizing of the holes will reduce the 
potential for cracks from developing in the front spar chord assembly fastener holes and help prevent cracks or 
fractures in the front spar chord assemblies.
Boeing Service Related Problem (SRP) 747OP-SRP-54-0117 is related to this service bulletin.

2. Spares Affected
None.
B. Concurrent Requirements
None.
C. Reason
Accomplishment of the inspection and modification in this service bulletin will detect and help prevent 
cracking and fracture of the nacelle strut front spar chord assembly forward of the upper link 
attachment. Fracture of the front spar chord assembly will result in the loss of the strut upper link load 
path. Continued operation without the strut upper link load path could result in the fracture of the 
diagonal brace and result in an in-flight separation of the strut and engine. 
The front spar chord assembly is used to connect the strut to the upper link.  Subsequent to the original 
issue of Boeing Service Bulletin 747-54A2224 Original Issue, an operator reported finding a fractured 
chord on Strut no. 3 on an airplane with approximately 79,800 flight-hours and 15,100 flight-cycles. 
The fracture occurred forward of the rear engine mount bulkhead due to cracking that initiated and 
was propagated by fatigue from a fastener hole. Loss of the upper link load path would result in the 
transfer of additional loads to the diagonal brace load path. The additional loads could result in the 
fracture of the diagonal brace. The loss of the upper link load path combined with the loss of the 
diagonal brace load path could result in the in-flight separation of the strut and engine.
Inspection of the front spar chord assembly will detect cracks or fractures of the front spar chord 
assembly.  Installation of a cap skin doubler, if not previously accomplished, and oversizing of the 
holes will reduce the potential for cracks from developing in the front spar chord assembly fastener 
holes and help prevent cracks or fractures in the front spar chord assemblies.
Boeing Service Related Problem (SRP) 747OP-SRP-54-0117 is related to this service bulletin.
D. Description
Part 1 - Outboard Strut Inspection and Modification
Remove the strut access panels as required. Remove the variable camber flap fairing (not required 
on JT9D-3 / -7 powered airplanes which have already installed the cap skin doubler in accordance 
with 747-54-2125).  Relieve the load from the front spar chord, as required.  Remove the fasteners 
common to the front spar chord from the rear engine mount bulkhead forward to the next frame.  Do 
an open hole High Frequency Eddy Current (HFEC) inspection for cracks.  If any crack is found, 
contact The Boeing Company for additional instructions.  If the cap skin doubler was not previously 
installed in accordance with 747-54-2125, install the cap skin doubler.  Install the variable camber flap 
fairing, if removed.  Install the strut access panels.

Part 2 - Inboard Strut Inspection and Modification
Remove the strut access panels.  For airplanes that have not installed the cap skin doubler in 
accordance with 747-54-2125, remove the engine and strut.  For airplanes that have not installed the 
cap skin doubler in accordance with 747-54-2125, remove and cut the skirt seal.  For airplanes that 
have already installed the cap skin doubler in accordance with 747-54-2125, remove the skirt seal.  
Relieve the load from the front spar chord, as required.  For JT9D-3/ -7 powered airplanes that have 
already installed the cap skin doubler in accordance with 747-54-2125, remove the cap skin doubler 
to gain access to fasteners that are covered by the doubler. Remove the fasteners common to the 
front spar chord from the rear engine mount bulkhead forward to the next frame.  Do an open hole 
High Frequency Eddy Current (HFEC) inspection for cracks.  If any crack is found, contact The Boeing 
Company for additional instructions.  Reinstall the cap skin doubler or If the cap skin doubler was not 
previously installed in accordance with 747-54-2125, install the cap skin doubler.  Reinstall the skirt 
seal or for airplanes that have not installed the cap skin doubler, rework the skirt seal to accommodate 
the cap skin doubler and reinstall.  Install the engine and strut, if removed.  Install the strut access 
panels
