### TITLE: LANDING GEAR - REPEAT INSPECTION OF MLG AND CLG BOGIE PIVOT PIN **CONF ALL MODIFICATIONS None REASON/DESCRIPTION/OPERATIONAL CONSEQUENCES The bogie pivot pin ensures the connection between the landing gear slider and the bogie beam. This component is a Principal Structural Element (PSE). In-service feed-backs indicate an increasing number of bogie pivot pin replacements due to unexpected findings upon removal. Operators report a high number of events related to chrome detachment or chrome dragging. There have been a number of confirmed crackings of the bogie pivot pins since Entry Into Service (EIS). This Service Bulletin is published to advise all operators of A340-500/-600 aircraft of the issue of Messier-Dowty Service Bulletin No. A34/56M-32-46 for MLG and Messier-Dowty Service Bulletin No. A34/56C-32-117 for CLG. VSB A34/56M-32-46 and A34/56C-32-117 details: - Detailed Visual Inspections (DVI) of the bogie pivot pin chromium-plated surface- Magnetic Particle Inspections (MPI) of the bogie pivot pin if damage is found to the chromiumplated surface - DVI’s of the pivot pin bushes in the bogie beam and sliding tube. These inspections will: - make sure that all damaged bogie pivot pins and bushes are repaired or replaced if found damaged - gather detailed information from the fleet to further investigate this issue.
