2. MATERIAL INFORMATION

A. Material - Price and Availability

The operator can supply the parts and materials shown in Paragraph 2.C., Parts Necessary for Each

Airplane. As an alternative, operators can purchase the parts from Boeing Spares. This service bulletin

does not show the Boeing price and supply data.
