The drag beam, if removed, requires installation in accordance with the applicable technicalmanuals listed in Table 1-1.4.23. MAIN LANDING GEAR DRAG BEAM (MT).4.23.1. Description(Figure4-1.IndexNo.23). The drag beam is a cylinder attached to the airframe at one end and tothe shock strut at the other, which transmits landing loads to the airframe and shock strut and to which the wheel isattached.4.23.2. Defects. This inspection is used to verify crack indications found visually on the drag beam. Particular attentionshall be given to the jackpad hole and adjacent flat surfaces. No cracks are allowed.4.23.3. PrimaryMethod. Magnetic Particle.4.23.3.1. NDI Equipment and Materials.
