nose wheel well (NWW), and corrective actions if necessary.

DATES: Effective May 10, 2005.

final disposition. You can examine the AD docket on the Internet at

Model 747 series airplanes. This AD requires repetitive inspections for

inspection. Where paragraph (i) of the AD specifies ``Do a UT 
inspection of the sidewall panel web for cracks, * * *,'' the correct 
areas to inspect are the top and sidewall panel web. References to the 
inspection areas are all identified correctly in all other parts of the 
AD.
    No other part of the regulatory information has been changed; 
therefore, the final rule is not republished in the Federal Register.
    The effective date of this AD remains May 10, 2005.
