Requirement: Action in accordance with the technical requirements of FAA AD 2004-01-02 Amdt 39-13415

Compliance: As specified in the Requirement document, with a revised effective date of 18 March 2004
This Airworthiness Directive becomes effective on 18 March 2004.
Background: This Directive requires modification of the aft pitch load fitting of the diagonal brace of the nacelle strut of each wing. This action is necessary to prevent loss of the fuse pin of the pitch load fitting due to fatigue caused by improper clearance between the fuse pin and bushing, which could result in increased loads in the wing-to-strut joints and consequent separation of the strut and engine from the wing.
