BACKGROUND
This service bulletin provides instructions to do High Frequency Eddy Current (HFEC) and Low Frequency Eddy
Current (LFEC) inspections for any crack in the fuselage frame at Body Station (STA) 1681, in the area around
stringer S-17, on the left and right side of the airplane. If the work given in this service bulletin is not done,
undetected cracking in the fuselage frame at STA 1681 could adversely affect the structural integrity of the
airplane.
One operator reported a six inch long crack in the fuselage frame web at STA 1681, below the floor line at
stringer S-17L, during a routine maintenance visit. Boeing analysis has determined that the crack was caused
by fatigue. The crack was not easily detected because it was significantly hidden by adjacent structure.
Accomplishment of the work given in this service bulletin will mitigate the safety issue associated with cracking
in the STA 1681 fuselage frame and make sure that any crack is found and repaired before the crack grows to
a critical length.

ACTION
Get access to the Body Station (STA) 1681 fuselage frame, between stringer S-16 and S-18, on the left and
right side of the airplane. Inspect for any existing frame repair and for any existing floor beam repair common
to the STA 1681 frame inspection area. If any existing frame repair is found common to the STA 1681 fuselage
frame inspection area, contact The Boeing Company for repair evaluation and inspection instructions and do
the instructions.
In areas with no existing frame repair, do High Frequency Eddy Current (HFEC) and Low Frequency Eddy
Current (LFEC) inspections for any crack in the STA 1681 fuselage frame, in the area around stringer S-17. In
areas with no existing floor beam repair, do the HFEC and LFEC inspections from the forward and aft side of
the frame. In areas with any existing floor beam repair, do the HFEC and LFEC inspections from the aft side of
the frame. If any crack is found, contact The Boeing Company for repair instructions and do the repair, and
repeat the inspections in areas with no existing frame repair at the times specified in Paragraph 1.E., Compliance.
If no crack is found, repeat the inspections at the times specified in Paragraph 1.E., Compliance.
EFFECTIVITY
757-200, -200CB and -300 Airplanes. Refer to Paragraph 1.A.1., Airplanes, for the list of affected airplanes.
COMPLIANCE
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) will possibly release an Airworthiness Directive related to this service
bulletin. The Airworthiness Directive will make the compliance tasks and times given in this service bulletin
mandatory.
Refer to Paragraph 1.E., Compliance.

by this service bulletin, the operator is responsible for obtaining appropriate regulatory agency approval
before incorporating this service bulletin.
G. Manpower
The tables below show an estimate of the task hours necessary to do this inspection for each airplane.
This estimate is for direct labor only, done by an experienced crew. Adjust the estimate with operator
task hour data if necessary. The estimate does not include lost time. These are some examples of lost
time:

7. 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.
8. 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.
9. Use of colors in Figures is based on guidance from the ATA e-Business Program
(ATA) iSpec 2200.
10. When more than one OPTION is given for a CONDITION, do only one of the OPTION
numbers. When more than one ACTION is given for a CONDITION number or an
OPTION number, do all of the ACTION numbers for that CONDITION number or
OPTION number.
11. The compliance times for the actions in Paragraph 3.B., WORK INSTRUCTIONS
are in Paragraph 1.E., Compliance.
12. Some steps in the Work Instructions are labeled as Required for Compliance (RC).
If this service bulletin is mandated by an Airworthiness Directive (AD), then the steps
labeled as RC, including sub-steps under an RC step and any figures identified in
an RC step, must be done to comply with the AD. If a step or sub-step is labeled
"RC Exempt," then the RC requirement is removed from that step or sub-step. An
Alternative Method of Compliance (AMOC) is required for any deviations to RC steps,
including sub-steps and identified figures. Steps not labeled as RC 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 RC steps, including sub-steps and identified figures, can still be done as specified,
and the airplane can be put back in an airworthy condition.
