Gulfstream II / IIB Alert Customer Bulletin No. 36 “May 18, 2012”
Page 1 of 3 Wings (ATA 57), Inspection – Aft Inboard Wing-to-Fuselage Attach Fitting
I. Planning Information:
A. Effectivity:
Aircraft serial numbers 083, 084, 096, 130, 176, 202, 238, 239 and 240 B. Reason:
Gulfstream released GII ASC 426 in May of 1991 to provide a corrosion repair, without requiring wing de-mate, for the aft inboard attach fitting location. During a recent inspection, a GII aircraft was found with a repair doubler that was trimmed beyond blueprint limits. Incorrect machining of the doublers results in improper mating of the clothes-pin fittings. The resulting excessive clearance between the structural members results in a change in load path and reduced structural strength of the assembly below certified limits. As a result of reduced strength, catastrophic failure of the aircraft may result. The above aircraft have been identified as having ASC 426 installed with the potential to have this condition.
C. Description:
This alert customer bulletin is a one-time action to inspect the aft inboard wing-tofuselage attach fitting doubler plate.
Note: All ASC references in this document are intended to be inclusive of any amendments or revisions unless otherwise stated.
D. Compliance:
Compliance with this alert customer bulletin is required before further flight.
E. Approval:
This alert customer bulletin has been FAA approved as this issue is the subject of FAA Airworthiness action. It does not contain any modification information nor revise the approved configuration and as such does not require any other regulatory approval.

CAUTION: PROTECT WIRE BUNDLES, CONNECTORS AND SURROUNDING
STRUCTURE DURING ANY MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE FROM SHAVINGS, DEBRIS AND CONTAMINATION. MAINTAIN A PROPERLY CLEANED WORK
AREA THROUGHOUT THE PROCEDURE TO ENSURE THE INTEGRITY OF THE AFFECTED COMPONENT / SYSTEM. VISUALLY INSPECT WORK AREA
USING ADDITIONAL LIGHT AS NECESSA RY TO VERIFY ABSENCE OF ANY DEBRIS PRIOR TO COMPLETION OF PROCEDURE. FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE TO COMPONENTS AND / OR SYSTEMS.
A. Prepare aircraft for safe maintenance as follows:
1. Remove electrical power, turn all cockpit switches off and disconnect battery quick disconnects.
B. Gain access to the left and right wing aft inboard attach fittings and proceed as follows:
1. If necessary, remove any fillet seal from around the seal plate / doubler and clothespin fitting.
2. Inspect the clearance (gap) of exposed rounded portion of the clothespin fitting between the chromed area of the fitting and the doubler (see Figure 1). Cumulative measurements of Gaps A and B must not exceed 0.0046” maximum. If clearance exceeds 0.0046 inch contact Gulfstream Customer Support at 800-810-GULF or 912-965-4178 for further assistance. Record measurements in the Comments section of the attached Service Reply Card.
3. Clean the attach fitting area of all debris. If the fillet seal was removed reapply per GII / GIIB AMM Chapter 57.
C. Ensure work area is clean and clear of foreign objects (FOD).
D. Record compliance with this alert customer bulletin in the aircraft’s permanent maintenance records and return aircraft to flight status.
E. Fax a copy of the Service Reply Card with measurements found to Gulfstream Customer Support at 912-963-0219.
