Airbus Issues Airworthiness Directive Amendment for A320 Series Airplanes

Airbus Industrie has issued an airworthiness directive (AD) amendment for the A320 series airplanes, updating the Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) to prohibit automatic landings in configuration 3 (CONF 3) and increasing the minimum runway visual range for certain modified aircraft. The update aims to prevent tail strikes and structural damage by addressing a potential issue with spoiler elevator computers.
