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 This service bulletin gives instructions for the removal and replacement of the STA 1582 aft pressure bulkhead.

Service Bulletin 767-53A0026, "Fuselage - Section 48 - Body Station 1582 Pressure Bulkhead Inspection" was previously released to give instructions to inspect for cracks in the the STA 1582 aft pressure bulkhead radial web lap splices and tear strap splices. Aft pressure bulkhead radial web lap splice multiple site damage (MSD) cracks that are not found and repaired can link together and become large. This condition could result in rapid decompression of the passenger compartment and possible damage or interference with airplane control systems that penetrate the bulkhead, and consequent loss of controllability of the airplane.

Operators have told Boeing that MSD fatigue cracks have been found in the STA 1582 aft pressure bulkhead radial web lap splices on multiple airplanes with 31,746 to 36,597 flight cycles. On four airplanes, the crack findings demonstrated MSD fatigue cracking common to the radial web lap splices. Design changes to improve the durability of the bulkhead were made in production at line number 176, and again at line number 424. Service Bulletin 767-53A0026 Revision 5 was released to give instructions to inspect for these types of cracks.

Accomplishment of the aft pressure bulkhead replacement given in this service bulletin will end the repeat inspections currently required by Boeing Service Bulletin 767-53A0026 and FAA Airworthiness Directive 2005-03-11.

Accomplishment of the aft pressure bulkhead replacement given in this service bulletin will also end the repeat inspections currently required by Boeing Service Bulletin 767-53A0087, "Fuselage - Section 48 - BS 1582 Aft Pressure Bulkhead Web Inspection at Web to Pressure Chord Joint" and FAA Airworthiness Directive 2004-05-16.

Inspections of the replacement aft pressure bulkhead are to be done as specified in the Boeing Document D622T001 "767 Maintenance Planning Data" and Airworthiness Limitations - Structural Inspections as specified in Section 9 of Boeing Document D622T001, with threshold modifications identified in Paragraph 1.E., Compliance.
