           Note 2: FAA AD 2001-24-32 Amdt 39-12549 refers.

 Boeing B747 Series Aeroplanes

 AD/B747/266 (continued)

 Compliance: For Requirement 1 - Before 16 January 2003.

           For Requirement 2 - Before further flight, following the Requirement 1 inspection.

           For Requirement 3 - Before further flight, following the Requirement 1 inspection or Requirement 2 repair, as applicable.

           This Airworthiness Directive becomes effective on 21 February 2002.

           Background:  This Directive requires a one-time inspection for chafing of certain wire bundles behind the flight engineer's panel, together with any necessary repairs. The Directive also requires a modification to reroute a certain electrical wire bundle to ensure sufficient clearance between that wire bundle and an adjacent flood light support bracket.

           These actions are necessary to prevent chafing of certain electrical wire bundles, which could result in smoke in the cockpit and an uncommanded discharge of fire extinguishing bottles for the No. 4 engine, with the consequent reduction in the ability to fight a fire in the No. 4 engine.
