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 Seattle ACO Branch approves the installation of AIMS-2 BP V17C
software defined in this Requirements Bulletin as an alternative method of compliance to the requirements
of paragraph (f) of AD 2009-02-05. All provisions of AD 2009-02-05 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. 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. Later approved software is only software that is approved by Boeing as a replacement
for the software specified in this bulletin and approved as part of the type design by
the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) after issuance of this bulletin Original Issue
date.
5. 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.
6. 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 or an OPTION,
do all of the ACTION numbers for that CONDITION or OPTION.
