Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS Airplanes

Краткое содержание

The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Airbus SAS Model A318 series airplanes; Model A319-111, -112, -113, - 114, -115, -131, -132, -133, -151N, -153N, and -171N airplanes; Model A320 series airplanes; and Model A321 series airplanes. This AD was prompted by reports of jamming of, or inability to open, the main landing gear (MLG) door during maintenance operations. This AD requires repetitive inspection of the MLG doors, and, depending on findings, accomplishment of applicable corrective actions, and prohibits 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.
