✈️FAA Issues Airworthiness Directive for Airbus A350 Compliance
The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2022-27- 01, which applied to certain Airbus SAS Model A350-941 and -1041 airplanes. AD 2022-27-01 required replacing affected fasteners and applying additional head nut cap protection at the front and rear spars in the center wing box (CWB). Since the FAA issued AD 2022-27-01, the FAA determined that additional Airbus SAS Model A350 manufacturer serial numbers (MSNs) are affected by the same potential unsafe condition. This AD continues to require the actions in AD 2022-27-01 and expands the applicability to include the additional Airbus SAS Model A350 MSNs. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Airbus SAS Model A350-941 and -1041 airplanes. This AD was prompted by a design review that identified a potential thrust asymmetry condition during derated takeoff operations under certain conditions. This AD requires revising the existing airplane flight manual (AFM) to provide the flightcrew with procedures for derated takeoff limitations. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
