Regulatory Text

66-06-02\tBOEING: Amdt. 39-200 Part 39 Federal Register February 24, 1966. Applies to Models 707 and 720 Series Airplanes Equipped with Turbofan Engines and strut Mounted P(t2) Probes. \n\n\tCompliance required within the next 1,800 hours' time in service after the effective date of this AD unless already accomplished. \n\n\tThere have been numerous instances of the aft edges of the turbocompressor dipstick access door, which is in front of the strut mounted P(t2) probe, becoming unfaired in flight and causing erroneous readings of the EPR (engine pressure ratio) system. To prevent erroneous readings of the EPR system, install an additional rotary latch on the aft edge of the access door in accordance with Boeing Service Bulletin No. 2143 or later FAA-approved revision or an equivalent approved by the Chief, Aircraft Engineering Division, FAA Western Region. \n\n\tThis directive effective March 26, 1966.
