B. Reason
Problem: There have been issues reported of door handle loads increasing and one
instance of a door handle jamming on opening. These conditions might be
caused by the pins on the existing handle shaft migrating and causing the
handle to jam.

Solution: This Mod allows for the in-service replacement of the existing aft entry &
aft service door internal handle shaft with the single piece machined
handle shaft.
C. Description
The procedures in this service bulletin give the instructions to do the tasks that
follow:
