Repairs assessment for pres-
surized fuselages.
(a) No person may operate an Airbus
Model A300 (excluding the -600 series),
British Aerospace Model BAC 1–11, Boe-
ing Model 707, 720, 727, 737 or 747,
McDonnell Douglas Model DC–8, DC–9/
MD–80 or DC–10, Fokker Model F28, or
Lockheed Model L–1011 airplane beyond
applicable flight cycle implementation
time specified below, or May 25, 2001,
whichever occurs later, unless repair
assessment guidelines applicable to the
fuselage pressure boundary (fuselage
skin, door skin, and bulkhead webs) are
incorporated within its inspection pro-
gram. The repair assessment guidelines
must be approved by the responsible
Aircraft Certification Service office for
the type certificate for the affected air-
plane.

B4–2C): 30,000 flights above the window
line, and 36,000 flights below the win-
dow line.
(iii) Model B4–200: 25,500 flights above
the window line, and 34,000 flights
below the window line.
(2) For all models of the British Aero-
space BAC 1–11, the flight cycle imple-
mentation time is 60,000 flights.
(3) For all models of the Boeing 707,
the flight cycle implementation time is
15,000 flights.
(4) For all models of the Boeing 720,
the flight cycle implementation time is
23,000 flights.
(5) For all models of the Boeing 727,
the flight cycle implementation time is
45,000 flights.
(6) For all models of the Boeing 737,
the flight cycle implementation time is
60,000 flights.
(7) For all models of the Boeing 747,
the flight cycle implementation time is
15,000 flights.
(8) For all models of the McDonnell
Douglas DC–8, the flight cycle imple-
mentation time is 30,000 flights.
(9) For all models of the McDonnell
Douglas DC–9/MD–80, the flight cycle
implementation time is 60,000 flights.
(10) For all models of the McDonnell
Douglas DC–10, the flight cycle imple-
mentation time is 30,000 flights.
(11) For all models of the Lockheed
L–1011, the flight cycle implementation
time is 27,000 flights.
(12) For the Fokker F–28 Mark 1000,
2000, 3000, and 4000, the flight cycle im-
plementation time is 60,000 flights.
