THIS DOCUMENT 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 DOCUMENT TO THE NEW OPERATOR. IF APPLICABLE SPARES HAVE BEEN SOLD, SEND THIS DOCUMENT TO THE NEW OWNER.
CONCURRENT REQUIREMENTS Refer to Paragraph 1.B., Concurrent Requirements.
BACKGROUND Accomplishment of this service bulletin will prevent heat damage on the vapor seal between the strut and aft fairing of the number 1 and number 4 engines. In the event of a flammable fluid leakage in the aft fairing structure, damaged vapor seals could result in an uncontained engine strut fire.
Boeing has received reports from operators of damaged vapor seals, block seals, and heat shield seals on number 1 and number 4 engines aft strut fairings. As a result, Boeing has issued Service Bulletin 747-54A2246 to inspect for heat damage and replace heat damaged parts.
Since the release of Boeing Service Bulletin 747-54A2246, Boeing has designed new and improved heat shield seal and retainer, block seals and access panels to prevent hot exhaust gases from entering the aft fairing. This new and improved design includes the following improvements:
– The new heat shield seal prevents hot exhaust gas flowing into the aft fairing with redesigned seal and retainer – The new block seals seal the edges of the aft fairing between the heat shield seal and vapor seal – The new access panels allow external airflow into the space between strut and aft fairing This service bulletin gives instructions to modify the heat shield seal and retainer, block seals, and replace the existing vapor seal and access panel. Accomplishment of this replacement is terminating action for the inspection requirements in SAFETY RELATED - INITIAL AND REPEAT INSPECTIONS AND REPLACEMENT OF SEALS in accordance with SB 747-54A2246. In addition, a final one-time accomplishment of ECONOMIC RELATED - STRUCTURAL INSPECTION AND REPAIR FOR HEAT DAMAGE in accordance with SB 747-54A2246 and accomplishment of this service bulletin is the terminating action to the economic related inspections of SB 747-54A2246.
