SUBJECT: WINGS - Trailing Edge and Trailing Edge Devices - Inboard Main Flap - Hinge Fitting
Assembly Inspection and Replacement
This revision includes all pages of the service bulletin.
COMPLIANCE INFORMATION RELATED TO THIS REVISION
No more work is necessary on the airplanes changed in accordance with the original issue or Revision 1 of this
service bulletin. However, operators must continue to do the repetitive inspections of the hinge fittings, at the
times in accordance with Paragraph 1.E., Compliance until new hinge fitting assemblies 113T2271-419 (Left)
and 113T2271-420 (Right) are installed.
REASON FOR REVISION
This revision is sent to change the inspection requirements in Figure 2 and Figure 3 of this service bulletin. The
inspection area on the trailing edge main flap hinge fitting is changed and limited to the outboard half only.
Subsequent to the release of Revision 1 of this service bulletin, one operator reported finding a fractured hinge
fitting assembly. The fracture occurred on a hinge fitting assembly at approximately 780 flight-cycles after its
last inspection on a 767-300 airplane. An examination of the fractured hinge fitting assembly showed that the
crack started at the edge of the current inspection area. The service bulletin illustrations have been updated to
clearly show the expected crack location and direction. The latest service bulletin format standards have also
been updated where applicable.
These sections are changed:
1. Service Bulletin Title updated.
2. Summary - Illustration - Illustration updated to show the expected crack location and direction.
3. Paragraph 1.F., Approval - AMOC statement updated.
4. Paragraph 1.G., Manpower - Table updated.
5. Paragraph 1.K.1., Publications - CMM reference added.
6. Paragraph 1.K.2., Damage Tolerance Based Structural Inspections - Damage Tolerance Inspections (DTI)

CONCURRENT REQUIREMENTS

BACKGROUND
Accomplishment of this service bulletin will detect cracks, prevent fractures and ensure the structural integrity
of the inboard trailing edge main flap outboard hinge fittings. Fracture of the hinge fitting assemblies could result
in the inboard aft flap becoming unrestrained potentially striking the aircraft upon departure, resulting in significant
damage to the surrounding structure and could cause potential personal injury.
One operator of a 767-300 reported lug fractures on both the inboard and outboard hinge fittings of the outboard
hinge assembly mounted to the main flap. The hinge assembly provides one of two primary attachment points
of the inboard trailing edge aft flap assembly. The outboard hinge fitting was fractured just above the lug hole.
The fractured hinge fittings were found during a routine maintenance inspection. The airplane had accumulated
9,598 flight-hours and 5,393 flight cycles.
During root cause analysis of the fractured hinge fitting it was discovered that an optional tool runout was not
present on the damaged fitting assemblies. The tool runout option allows the part to be machined thicker within
the area reported to be fractured. Boeing has received no reports of cracks or fractures on fitting that have the
additional material area of the optional tool runout. Service bulletin 767-57A0076 was released to inspect and
replace the suspect hinge fittings if and as required on all 767-200, 767-300 and 767-300F airplanes line numbers
1 through 825. The inboard trailing edge main flap outboard hinge fittings on the 767-400ER are similar in design
to the 767-200, 767-300 and 767-300F fittings. The 767-400ER fittings are wider and thicker; however, higher
fatigue loads are associated with the 767-400ER in this area. Analysis indicates the 767-400ER fittings could
be susceptible to early fatigue cracking and/or fractures as a result of these higher loads.
Subsequent to the original issue of this service bulletin, 3 reports of hinge fitting assembly fracture have been
received. The fractures all occurred at approximately 9,100 flight-cycles and in 1 case fracture at approximately
1,400 flight-cycles after the last detailed - eddy current inspection. Based on the reports of the fractured hinge
fitting assemblies prior to the initial threshold and the repeat interval, revision 1 reduced the initial threshold and
repeat interval. Revision 2 changed the inspection area to show clearly the expected crack location and direction.

2. Spares Affected
Examine your 767-400ER inboard trailing edge main flap spares supply for the 113T2271-401 and
113T2271-402 outboard hinge fitting assemblies. If any parts are found, refer to Paragraph 2.C.,

the recommended use.
B. Concurrent Requirements
None.

Revision 1 was sent to
1. To reduce the initial compliance time and repeat interval based on service reports. Subsequent
to the original issue of this service bulletin, operators have reported finding 3 fractured hinge fitting
assemblies. The fractured hinge fitting assemblies had accumulated less flight-cycles than the
initial compliance threshold and in 1 case, the hinge fitting assembly fractured after the original
inspection and prior to the next repeat inspection. Boeing Service Related Problem (SRP)
767-SRP-57-0233 was issued to address this issue.
2. Add instructions to transfer the stainless steel filler and the shims for the mid fairing roller from the
old hinge fitting assembly to the new hinge fitting assembly.
3. Revise inspection area to show inspection from the center of the lug forward, not the end of the
lug forward. This moves the inspection forward to inspect additional area where cracking has been
found, not the lug bore where cracking has not been found.
4. Add reference to the existing AD, add an AMOC to the existing AD, and reference the possible
new AD which would make the compliance tasks and times in Revision 1 of this service bulletin
mandatory.
5. Update the format of the service bulletin to meet current service bulletin standards.
Revision 2 is sent to change the inspection requirements in Figure 2 and Figure 3 of this service bulletin.
The inspection area on the trailing edge main flap hinge fitting is changed and limited to the outboard
half only. Subsequent to the release of Revision 1 of this service bulletin, one operator reported finding
a fractured hinge fitting. The fracture occurred on a hinge fitting at approximately 780 flight-cycles after
its last inspection on a 767-300 airplane. An examination of the fractured hinge fitting assembly showed
that the crack started at the edge of the current inspection area. The service bulletin illustrations have
been updated to clearly show the expected crack location and direction. The latest service bulletin
format standards have also been updated where applicable.
D. Description
Inspect the inboard trailing edge main flap outboard hinge fittings on the left and right wing for cracks
or fractures. If any cracks or fractures are found, complete terminating action. If cracks or fractures are
not found, repeat the inspections at the intervals in accordance with FIGURE 1 until terminating action
is completed.
Revision 1 - No more work is necessary on airplanes changed in accordance with the original issue of
this service bulletin.
Revision 2 - No more work is necessary on the airplanes changed in accordance with the original issue
or Revision 1 of this service bulletin. However, operators must continue to do the repetitive inspections
of the hinge fittings, at the times in accordance with Paragraph 1.E., Compliance until new hinge fitting
assemblies 113T2271-419 (Left) and 113T2271-420 (Right) are installed.

G. Manpower
The table below shows an estimate of the task-hours necessary to do the fitting inspections and
replacement 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:
— Time to adjust to the workplace
— Time to schedule the work
— Time to examine the work
— Time to cure the materials
— Time to make the parts
— Time to find the tools.
