Background The FAA proposes to adopt a new AD
for The Boeing Company Model 7379
airplanes having line numbers 6834, 6852, 6872, 6899, 6917, 6935, 7096, 7173, 7196, 7201, 7208, 7216, 7246, 7253, 7261, 7268, 7306, 7316, 7338, 7348, 7361, 7384, 7388, 7394, and 7428.
The FAA received a report indicating that the application of sealant on the left wing and right wing leading edge outboard blowout door was missed during the airplane manufacturing process on some Model 7379 airplanes.
The missing sealant is intended to act as a fuel barrier. In the event of a substantial fuel leak from the wing box, missing sealant could result in an unintended drain path allowing fuel to come into contact with the engine. This condition, if not addressed, could lead to a large ground fire.
