A380 Rib 3 Bottom Boom Installation Guide

The document provides instructions for removing and replacing the bottom rib boom on rib 3 of an A380 wing. It instructs technicians to carefully remove fasteners between the front spar and rib 2 intersection to remove the existing boom. Up to 50% of lower fasteners in the vertical fitting can be removed to help with removing the end two fasteners of the bottom boom. The boom is then separated from the carbon rib web using non-metallic tools. Holes are then drilled into the new boom by back drilling some holes, front drilling the last two holes, transferring drill holes from the old boom to a template, and using the template and existing holes to drill the remaining holes into the new boom.
