Title: ●Aging Aircraft Program (Widespread Fatigue Damage)
Abstract: The FAA proposes to require incorporation of a program to preclude widespread fatigue damage into the FAA-approved maintenance program of each operator of large transport category airplanes. This action is the result of concern for the continued operational safety of airplanes that are approaching or have exceeded their design service goal. This proposed rulemaking would require a limit of validity in flight cycles or hours of the structural maintenance program, where the operator must incorporate added inspections and/or modification/replacement actions into its maintenance program to allow continued operation.
