SPECIAL ATTENTION Service Bulletin Number: 747-27-2422 Summary Date: October 30, 2008 ATA System: 2751 SUBJECT: FLIGHT CONTROLS - Trailing Edge Flap System - Transmission Positions 4 and 5 No-back Brake Replacement BOEING RECOMMENDS THAT EACH OPERATOR EXAMINE THIS SERVICE BULLETIN IMMEDIATELY.

CONCURRENT REQUIREMENTS None.

BACKGROUND This service bulletin gives the instructions and the necessary parts to replace the inboard Trailing Edge (TE) flap transmission carbon disk no-back brakes with skewed roller no-back brakes at the TE flap transmission, positions 4 and 5. The new skewed roller no-back brake will improve the disk brake friction coefficient variation and brake pressure plate deflection under load, reducing potential inboard flap blow-back. The flap blow-back occurs when the no-back brake fails to hold the TE flap in the commanded position. A flap blow-back can result in a decrease of the aerodynamic controllability of the airplane, which could adversely affect the airplane’s continued safe flight and landing.

Since 1999, four operators have reported that the inboard TE flaps blew back due to the failure of a transmission carbon disk no-back brake. The no-back brake did not hold the TE flaps in the commanded position. On approach, with landing flaps 25 or 30 selected, the inboard TE flaps failed to hold the commanded position and blew back to, approximately, flaps 10/15. This failure can cause an asymmetric flap blow-back if a torque tube becomes disconnected in combination with a failed no-back brake, or cause a symmetric flap blow-back if the hydraulic motor torque is lost in combination with two failed no-back brakes.
