Commercial Airplanes DC8 Service Bulletin ALERT SummaryNumber: DC8-53A080Original Issue: June 22, 2004 Revision 2: September 18, 2013 ATA System: 5300 SUBJECT: FUSELAGE - Main Frame - Inspect/Repair Fuselage Skin Forward of Flat Aft Pressure Bulkhead at Longeron 28

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 During routine maintenance inspections, three operators reported finding three instances of cracks in the upper aft skin panel. The cracks were located along the upper row of rivets common to the longeron 28 skin splice, near the flat aft pressure bulkhead. Cracks were detected on airplanes which had accumulated between 27,072 and 46,176 flight cycles. If not corrected, in-flight fuselage decompression and unscheduled maintenance for repairs may be required. Inspecting fuselage skin for cracks will determine condition of skin. Inspecting fuselage skin for cracks, and repairing if necessary, will minimize the possibility of in-flight decompression and unscheduled maintenance.

The fuselage skin has been determined to be structure that is susceptible to Widespread Fatigue Damage (WFD).

This table is provided to operators for planning purposes only. Refer to the applicable sections for more information.
