| Background: | The FAA AD related to this Directive requires certain actions which are intended to prevent the escape slides and slide rafts of the forward and mid-cabin entry and service doors from being too steep for evacuation; in the event that the aircraft rotates onto the aft fuselage into the extreme tip-back condition. In the extreme tip-back condition, the forward and mid-cabin exits could result in steeper sliding angles, which could cause injury to passengers and crewmembers during an emergency evacuation. |
