Unsafe Condition 

(d) This AD results from a report of a 

broken rudder pedal torque tube. We are 

issuing this AD to prevent failure of a rudder 

pedal torque tube, which could result in loss 

of rudder control and nose wheel steering 

controlled by the rudder pedal, and 

consequent reduced controllability of the 

airplane. 

Compliance 

(e) You are responsible for having the 

actions required by this AD performed within 

the compliance times specified, unless the 

actions have already been done. 

Eddy Current Inspection and Replacement if 

Necessary

inspection of the rudder pedal torque tube 

assembly for cracks, in accordance with the 

Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing Alert 

Service Bulletin DC10–27A236, dated 

February 17, 2005; or Boeing Alert Service 

Bulletin MD11–27A083, dated February 17, 

2005; as applicable. If any crack is found, 

before further flight, replace the rudder pedal 

torque tube with a new or serviceable rudder 

pedal torque tube, in accordance with the 

applicable service bulletin. 

Ultrasonic Inspection and Replacement, if 

Necessary 

(g) If no cracking is found during the 

special detailed eddy current inspection 

required by paragraph (f) of this AD, before 

further flight, do a special detailed ultrasonic 

inspection of the rudder pedal torque tube 

assembly to determine the wall thickness of 

the rudder pedal torque tube, in accordance 

with the Accomplishment Instructions of 

Boeing Alert Service Bulletin DC10–27A236, 

dated February 17, 2005; or Boeing Alert 

Service Bulletin MD11–27A083, dated 

February 17, 2005; as applicable. 

(1) If the wall thickness of the torque tube 

is within the limits identified as area C in 

Appendix B of the applicable service 

bulletin, no further action is required by this 

AD. 

(2) If the wall thickness of the torque tube 

is within the limits identified as area B in 

Appendix B of the applicable service 

bulletin, within 6,000 flight hours after doing 

the special detailed ultrasonic inspection, 

replace the torque tube with a new or 

serviceable torque tube, in accordance with 

the applicable service bulletin. 

(3) If the wall thickness of the torque tube 

is below the minimum limits, which are 

identified as area A in Appendix B of the 

applicable service bulletin, before further 

flight, replace the torque tube with a new or 

serviceable torque tube, in accordance with 

the applicable service bulletin. 

Alternative Methods of Compliance 

(AMOCs) 

(h)(1) The Manager, Los Angeles Aircraft 

Certification Office (ACO), FAA, has the 

authority to approve AMOCs for this AD, if 

requested in accordance with the procedures 

found in 14 CFR 39.19. 

(2) An AMOC that provides an acceptable 

level of safety may be used for any repair 

required by this AD, if it is approved by an 

Authorized Representative for the Boeing 

Commercial Airplanes Delegation Option 

Authorization Organization who has been 

authorized by the Manager, Los Angeles 

ACO, to make those findings. For a repair 

method to be approved, the repair must meet 

the certification basis of the airplane, and the 

approval must specifically refer to this AD. 

(3) Before using any AMOC approved in 

accordance with 14 CFR 39.19 on any 

airplane to which the AMOC applies, notify 

the appropriate principal inspector in the 

FAA Flight Standards Certificate Holding 

District Office. 

Material Incorporated by Reference

Bulletin DC10–27A236, dated February 17, 

2005; or Boeing Alert Service Bulletin
