1.
Introduction
A.
Many components of the airframe structure are similar in design and fabrication. Examples of such
items are sheet metal webs, formed structural shapes and extrusions.
B.
Typical repairs to these and other items have been compiled in this section to eliminate the duplication
of repairs under each applicable component. Repairs in this section apply to the member shown,
regardless of location on the airplane structure (except as limited), and will include only those parts
or members necessary to show the typical situation.
2.
Usage
A.
Typical repairs may be accomplished individually, or combined with other repairs for a major repair.
Technique and material variation is permissible only so far as to facilitate fabrication and ensure the
original strength and usefulness of the affected component.
3.
Preparation for Repair
A.
The airplane should be located in an area where, once positioned, minimum movement or relocation
is required. The airplane should be leveled and supported as necessary. Refer to appropriate
Maintenance Manual, Chapter 7, Jacking - Maintenance Practices and Chapter 8, Leveling -
Maintenance Practices.
