Airworthiness Directives; Boeing Model 747 Airplanes
AGENCY:
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of Transportation (DOT).
ACTION:
Final rule; correction.
SUMMARY:
The FAA is correcting a typographical error in an existing airworthiness directive (AD) that was published in the Federal Register on July 30, 2007 (72 FR 41438). The error resulted in certain compliance times being mislabeled as units of flight cycles instead of flight hours. This AD applies to all Boeing Model 747 airplanes. This AD requires an inspection of the No. 2 and No. 3 windows on the left and right sides of the airplane to determine their part numbers, and related investigative and corrective actions if necessary.
DATES:
Effective September 21, 2007.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
On July 18, 2007, the FAA issued AD 2007-15-10, amendment 39-15139 (72 FR 41438, July 30, 2007), for all Boeing Model 747-100, 747-100B, 747-100B SUD, 747-200B, 747-200C, 747-200F, 747-300, 747-400, 747-400D, 747-400F, 747SR, and 747SP series airplanes. The AD requires an inspection of the No. 2 and No. 3 windows on the left and right sides of the airplane to determine their part numbers, and related investigative and corrective actions if necessary.
As published, the compliance times in paragraph (g) of AD 2007-15-10 were mislabeled as units of flight cycles instead of flight hours.
No other part of the regulatory information has been changed; therefore, the final rule is not republished in the Federal Register.
The effective date of this AD remains September 4, 2007.
§ 39.13 [Corrected]
In the Federal Register of July 30, 2007, on page 41441, in the 2nd column, paragraph (g) of AD 2007-15-10 is corrected to read as follows:
(g) Where Tables 1, 2, and 3 of paragraph 1.E. of Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 747-56A2012, dated August 24, 2006, specify counting the compliance time from "* * * after the date on this service bulletin," this AD requires counting the compliance time from the effective date of this AD. After replacing a discrepant window with a new window, do the initial detailed inspection of the new window at the applicable compliance time: (1) within 5,500 flight hours after installing part number (P/N) 65B27042-( ) or 65B27043-( ), or (2) within 22,000 flight hours after installing P/N 65B27046-( ) or 65B27047-( ).
Issued in Renton, Washington, on September 10, 2007.
