✈️FAA Airworthiness Directive
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Airbus SAS Model A319-111, -112, -113, -114, -115, -131, -132, -133, - 151N, and -153N airplanes; A320 series airplanes; and A321-211, -212, - 213, -231, -232, -251N, -252N, -253N, -271N, -272N, -251NX, -252NX, - 253NX, -271NX, and -272NX airplanes. This AD was prompted by a determination that a damage-tolerance and fatigue reassessment of nose landing gear (NLG) repairs is necessary for certain parts fitted on airplanes approved for operation in the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). This AD requires repair and replacement of all affected parts, and introduces restrictions for the installation of affected parts, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is incorporated by reference. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain The Boeing Company Model 767-200, -300, and -400ER series airplanes. This AD was prompted by a report of multiple engine indicating and crew alerting system messages during potable water servicing after the water leaked onto the electronics equipment cooling air filter. This AD requires installation of hoseducts around the left-side section 43 potable water supply hoses and connections, a potable water system leakage test, and applicable corrective actions. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain General Electric Company (GE) Model GEnx-1B64, GEnx-1B64/ P1, GEnx-1B64/P2, GEnx-1B67, GEnx-1B67/P1, GEnx-1B67/P2, GEnx-1B70, GEnx-1B70/75/P1, GEnx-1B70/75/P2, GEnx-1B70/P1, GEnx-1B70/P2, GEnx- 1B70C/P1, GEnx-1B70C/P2, GEnx-1B74/75/P1, GEnx-1B74/75/P2, GEnx-1B76/ P2, GEnx-1B76A/P2, and GEnx-2B67/P engines. This proposed AD was prompted by a manufacturer investigation that revealed certain high- pressure turbine (HPT) stage 1 and HPT stage 2 disks were manufactured from powder metal material suspected to contain iron inclusion. This proposed AD would require replacement of affected HPT stage 1 and HPT stage 2 disks with parts eligible for installation. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Learn More✈️FAA Airworthiness Directives Impacting Airbus Operators and Costs
The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2023-09- 01, which applied to all Airbus SAS Model A318 series airplanes; Model A319 series airplanes; Model A320-211, -212, -214, -216, -231, -232, - 233, -251N, -252N, -253N, -271N, -272N, and -273N airplanes; and Model A321 series airplanes. AD 2023-09-01 was prompted by a report that certain overheat detection system (OHDS) sensing elements installed at certain positions might not properly detect thermal bleed leak events due to a quality escape during the manufacturing process. AD 2023-09-01 required a one-time detailed inspection of each affected part installed at an affected position and replacement if necessary and prohibited the installation of affected parts at affected positions. Since the FAA issued AD 2023-09-01, a new airplane model (A321-253NY) has been certified by EASA, on which affected parts could be installed in service. This AD continues to require the actions in AD 2023-09-01, and revises the applicability to include Model A321-253NY airplanes, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is incorporated by reference. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
