Background
The FAA has received reports indicating multiple findings of cracks
in the fuselage skin common to the UWL on all series of Boeing Model
777 airplanes. The crack findings were made during UWL replacement or
accomplishing Boeing Service Bulletins 777-53-0084 or 777-53-0087, or
Boeing Requirements Bulletin 777-57A0122 RB. In many of the fuselage
skin crack reports, the UWL was reported not damaged. The found
fuselage skin cracks were hidden externally by the UWL, and internally
by fuselage frames and stringers. The fuselage skin cracks were found
on airplanes with as few as 2,000 total flight cycles and 18,000 total
flight hours. These fuselage skin cracks were determined to be caused
by cold work surface upset that is not removed from the mating parts
and high joint load transfer or significant local bending stresses at
critical fastener locations. These conditions, if not addressed, could
result in an inability of a principal structural element (PSE) to
sustain limit load, leading to reduced structural integrity of the
airplane and possible loss of control of the airplane.
Boeing has issued Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin 777-53A0100
[[Page 21447]]
RB, dated March 16, 2023, to address the identified unsafe condition.
Other Relevant Rulemaking
AD 2023-17-14, Amendment 39-22541 (88 FR 60111, August 31, 2023)
(AD 2023-17-14) requires repetitive inspections for cracking of the
left and right side ring chords, repair angles, front spar lower
chords, and front spar webs (depending on configuration) common to the
UWL located at station (STA) 1035; modification of the front spar lower
chord for some airplanes; repetitive post-modification inspections; and
applicable on-condition actions, as specified in Boeing Alert
Requirements Bulletin 777-57A0122 RB, dated October 8, 2021; and
requires a maintenance records review of previously modified airplanes
for the procedures used during that modification, and applicable
corrective actions. Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin 777-53A0100 RB,
dated March 16, 2023, specifies that the modification in Boeing Alert
Requirements Bulletin 777-57A0122 RB should be done before further
flight if cracking is found during certain inspections. Therefore, this
proposed AD, which mandates Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin 777-
53A0100 RB, dated March 16, 2023, might require that the modification
be done prior to the compliance time for that modification as specified
in AD 2023-17-14. For airplanes on which a front spar lower chord
modification specified in Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin 777-
57A0122 RB is done as part of the requirements of paragraph (g) of this
proposed AD, the modification requirements of paragraph (g) of AD 2023-
17-14 are terminated for the applicable side (left or right) on which
the modification was done.
AD 2019-11-02, Amendment 39-19648 (84 FR 28722, June 20, 2019) (AD
2019-11-02) requires repetitive inspections of the left and right side
UWLs and applicable on-condition actions as specified in Boeing Alert
Service Bulletin 777-53A0081, Revision 2, dated March 29, 2019. The
accomplishment of the longeron modification specified in Boeing Service
Bulletin 777-53-0084, Revision 2, dated December 9, 2020, or Boeing
Service Bulletin 777-53-0087, Revision 1, dated March 4, 2020; or the
front spar lower chord modification specified in Boeing Alert
Requirements Bulletin 777-57A0122 RB, dated October 8, 2021; which must
be done if cracking is found during certain inspections specified in
Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin 777-53A0100 RB, dated March 16,
2023, terminates the inspection requirements of paragraph (g) of AD
2019-11-02 for the applicable side (left or right) on which the
modification was done.
FAA's Determination
The FAA is issuing this NPRM after determining that the unsafe
condition described previously is likely to exist or develop on other
products of the same type design.
Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51
The FAA reviewed Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin 777-53A0100 RB,
dated March 16, 2023. This service information specifies procedures for
external or internal (depending on configuration) detailed and
ultrasonic or surface high frequency eddy current (HFEC) inspections
for any cracking of the left and right side fuselage skin common to the
UWL, and applicable on-condition actions. On-condition actions include,
among other things, modification of the fuselage skin, and post-
modification inspections and applicable corrective actions (repairs of
cracking). Compliance times for on-condition actions depend on
inspection type, inspection findings, and modification status. Initial
compliance times for post-modification inspections range from within
10,000 flight cycles or 50,000 flight hours, whichever occurs first
after the modification; and within 30,000 flight cycles, 90,000 flight
hours, or before the result of a certain total flight cycle and total
flight hour equation, whichever occurs first after the modification.
The repetitive intervals range from 8,000 flight cycles or 25,000
flight hours, whichever occurs first, to 11,000 flight cycles or 56,000
flight hours, whichever occurs first. Repairs of cracking found during
post-modification inspections are to be accomplished before further
flight.
The FAA also reviewed Boeing Multi Operator Message MOM-MOM-24-
0054-01B, dated January 26, 2024. This service information specifies
corrections for Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin 777-57A0122 RB,
dated October 8, 2021, that address a non-destructive test manual
(NDTM) error, fastener callout errors, inadequate cap seal
instructions, figure orientation errors, minimum gap errors, missing
fasteners on certain figures, affected groups missing from certain
figures, and typographical errors.
This service information is reasonably available because the
interested parties have access to it through their normal course of
business or by the means identified in ADDRESSES.
Proposed AD Requirements in This NPRM
This proposed AD would require accomplishing the actions specified
in the service information already described and except for any
differences identified as exceptions in the regulatory text of this
proposed AD. For information on the procedures and compliance times,
see this service information at <a href="http://regulations.gov">regulations.gov</a> under Docket No. FAA-
2024-0769.
Costs of Compliance
The FAA estimates that this AD, if adopted as proposed, would
affect 272 airplanes of U.S. registry. The FAA estimates the following
costs to comply with this proposed AD:
Estimated Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cost on U.S.
Action Labor cost Parts cost Cost per product operators
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
External or internal inspections Up to 21 work-hours $0 $1,785 per $485,520 per

$1,785 per
inspection cycle.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The FAA estimates the following costs to do any necessary on-
condition actions that would be required based on the results of the
proposed inspection. The agency has no way of determining the number of
aircraft that might need these actions:
[[Page 21448]]
On-Condition Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

inspection cycle.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The FAA has received no definitive data on which to base the cost
estimates for the on-condition repairs specified in this proposed AD.
The FAA has included all known costs in its cost estimate.
According to the manufacturer, however, some or all of the costs of
this proposed AD may be covered under warranty, thereby reducing the
cost impact on affected operators.
Authority for This Rulemaking
Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII: Aviation Programs,
describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's authority.
The FAA is issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General requirements.
Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with promoting safe flight
of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing regulations for
practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator finds necessary
for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within the scope of that
authority because it addresses an unsafe condition that is likely to
exist or develop on products identified in this rulemaking action.
Regulatory Findings
The FAA determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism
implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would not
have a substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship
between the national Government and the States, or on the distribution
of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
For the reasons discussed above, I certify this proposed
regulation:
(1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
(2) Would not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
(3) Would not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
