FAA Proposes Update to Airworthiness Directive for Airbus Helicopters Models

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) proposes to update its Airworthiness Directive (AD) for certain Airbus Helicopters models, allowing for extended inspection intervals for the tail rotor pitch rod. The proposed update aims to address an unsafe condition on these helicopters, which were previously subject to a directive requiring repetitive inspections of the elastomeric ball joint.
