NOTE: In ADs prior to March 1, 2002, “Model DC-9 series airplanes,” as listed in the applicability of the AD,
included those models listed in rows one through five above, but did not include DC -9-81 (MD-81), -82 (MD-82), -
83, (MD-83), and -87 (MD-97) airplanes. If all Model DC-9 series airplanes are NOT subject to the requirements of
the AD, the applicability of the AD lists each affected model. Also, with respect to ADs issued prior to March 1,
2002, the information provided in the table is very general and should not be the only information utilized to
determine the applicability of ADs to specific airplane models. The ADs contain separate applicability statements
that rely heavily on service bulletins for determination of the applicability.

-38,813 lb which moves C.G. forward. When the aircraft is loaded within the above limits
and the effect of landing gear retraction and crew and passenger movement from thei r
assigned positions is accounted for and the fuel is loaded (up to the maximum takeoff
weight) and used in the approved sequence, the aircraft will remain within approved C.G.
limits. (See NOTE 1(b) and (e)).
