Special Bulletin: 747 operators

Airplanes must be in compliance with Airworthiness Directive AD# 2004-07-22.

AMPSCorp has developed a SSID/MSD-MRB Integrated program to assist you in complying with the SSID regulatory requirement. Our integration process reduces the combined man-hrs needed to accomplish your next D-Check.

Airlines using the new SSID/MPD integrated program are attaining a 30-50% reduction in overall D-check man-hours.

Airworthiness Directive AD 2004-07-22 requires immediate action for airplanes with over 20,000 flight cycles (SSID D6-35022, Rev. G, for all Boeing 747 airplanes). Since the required action is major structures inspection of a magnitude and scale of a heavy "D" check maintenance visit, the resulting economic and scheduling needs have a considerable impact on your 747 operating business plan. Of further interest is the Federal Air Regulation Part 121.370a requiring a detailed structures fatigue inspection program in place by December of 2010, within a "D" check interval of today's date.

Introduction to AMPSCorp maintenance program rescue service for operators with airplanes over, at or within a "D" check of the 20,000 flight cycle limit: An international aviation advisory committee portion of the Airline Transport Association consisting of manufacturers, aircraft operators and government regulators has established guidelines for aircraft maintenance. A required part of this maintenance is a scheduled maintenance program consisting of specific periodic work to be done in the areas of aircraft systems, engines and structure. AMPSCorp provides assistance to the aircraft operator in building and refining a scheduled maintenance program for their aircraft.

Due to the immediate action required by many 747 operators pertaining to the structures program inspections, AMPSCorp is currently offering this express planning assistance: We will work with your engineering, planning and maintenance departments, your maintenance provider and your regulator as required to see you through this critical economic and safety inspection challenge. Comprehensive planning activity for a consolidated heavy check with the AD inspections is the answer.
