4. APPROVAL This Requirements Bulletin was examined by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The changes specified in this document comply with the applicable regulations and are FAA approved, as well as European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA)/Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA) approved for all EASA/JAA approved airplanes listed in this Requirements Bulletin effectivity. This document and its approval were based on the airplane in its original Boeing delivery configuration or as modified by other Boeing changes.

If an airplane has a non-Boeing modification or repair that affects a component or system also affected by this Requirements Bulletin, the operator is responsible for obtaining appropriate regulatory agency approval before incorporating this Requirements Bulletin.

In addition, the Manager of the FAA Continued Operational Safety Branch approves accomplishment of the change defined in this bulletin as an alternative method of compliance to accomplishing the requirements of paragraph (g) of AD 2019-12-13. All provisions of AD 2019-12-13 that are not specifically referenced in the above statement remain fully applicable and must be complied with accordingly.

5. ACCOMPLISHMENT INSTRUCTIONS A. GENERAL INFORMATION NOTE: 1. This is an Enhanced Required for Compliance document. There will be a separate Service Bulletin (SB) and a separate Requirements Bulletin (RB). If an RB is mandated by an Airworthiness Directive (AD), then all applicable requirements specified in the RB must be done. In the RB, the "Refer to the listed procedures..." column of the table(s) in the Work Instructions is for reference only. The procedures in that column are not required by the AD and are for guidance only. For the related SB, some locations are marked RC Start and RC End to identify the requirements that are restated from the RB. For the related SB, the areas between RC Start and RC End, including sub-steps and any figures identified between RC Start and RC End, must be done to comply with the AD. Therefore, an Alternative Method of Compliance (AMOC) is required for any deviations to steps between RC Start and RC End, including substeps and identified figures. For the related SB, the steps not between RC Start and RC End may be deviated from using accepted methods in accordance with the operator's maintenance or inspection program without obtaining approval of an AMOC; this is provided that the steps between RC Start and RC End, including sub-steps and identified figures, can still be done as specified, and the airplane can be put back in an airworthy condition. Figures not required for compliance are omitted from the RB.

2. This is an Enhanced Required for Compliance document. The Boeing processes used to create the Service Bulletin (SB) and the Requirements Bulletin (RB) ensure that the information between "RC Start" and "RC End" in the SB are identical to the information in the same sections (Compliance, Work Instructions...) of the RB which the SB refers to as the related document.

3. The compliance times for the actions in WORK INSTRUCTIONS are in Compliance.

4. Boeing Service Letter 757-SL-51-022, Damage Reporting and Repair Plan/Design Guidelines, is an acceptable procedure to request information from Boeing for additional structural repair instructions. The Service Letter describes what information must be provided to Boeing before a structural repair can be provided.

5. Unless shown differently, these dimensions and tolerances are used:

– Linear dimensions are in inches – Tolerance on linear dimensions, other than rivet and bolt edge margins, is plus or minus 0.03 inch – Tolerance on rivet and bolt edge margin is plus or minus 0.05 inch – Angular tolerance is plus or minus 2 degrees – Hole dimensions for standard solid rivets and fasteners are in Structural Repair Manual (SRM) Chapter 51 – Torque Values:

— Values for structural fasteners are given in 757 Structural Repair Manual, Chapter 51.

— Values for airframe maintenance tasks are included in Chapter 20 of 757 Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM).

— Values for electrical maintenance tasks are included in Chapter 20 of Standard Wiring Practices Manual (SWPM).

Export Controlled ECCN: 9E991 See page 1 for details Original Issue: April 01, 2024 757-27A0160 RB 11 of 33 REQUIREMENTS BULLETIN 757-27A0160

ALERTALERT

— Values for engine maintenance tasks are included in Chapter 70 of 757 Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM).

— Non-standard torque values for maintenance tasks are included in the applicable installation step.

6. These work instructions refer to procedures included in other Boeing documents.

When the words "refer to" are used and the operator has an accepted alternative procedure, the accepted alternative procedure can be used. When the words "in accordance with" are included in the instruction, the procedure in the Boeing document must be used.

7. Where the work instructions include installation of a kept part, a new or serviceable part with the same part number can be installed as an alternative to the kept part.

8. If it is necessary to remove more parts for access, you can remove those parts. If you can get access without removing identified parts, it is not necessary to remove all of the identified parts. Jacking and shoring limitations must be observed.

9. Use the approved fastener, process and material substitutions in accordance with SRM Chapter 51.

10. If the length of any fastener specified in this service bulletin does not meet installation standards given in SRM Chapter 51, then a fastener of the same specification, or an approved substitute, with a length which meets the installation standards given in SRM Chapter 51 may be used. In addition, washers may be installed for fastener grip length in accordance with SRM Chapter 51. Refer to SOPM 20-50-01 for alternate full threaded fasteners (screws) needed for installation in this service bulletin.
