✈️Proposed Airworthiness Directives for Airbus SAS Airplanes
Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS Airplanes
Summary
The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2024-08-05, which applies to certain Airbus SAS Model A330-200 series, A330-200 Freighter series, A330-300 series, A330-841, and A330-941 airplanes. AD 2024-08-05 requires revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations. Since the FAA issued AD 2024-08- 05, the FAA has determined that additional new and more restrictive airworthiness limitations are necessary. This proposed AD would retain certain actions in AD 2024-08-05 until the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, is revised to incorporate the new and more restrictive airworthiness limitations. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
