Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS
Airplanes Federal Aviation Administration FAA, Department of Transportation DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive AD 201712
13, which applied to certain Airbus SAS
Model A320212, 214, 232, and 233
airplanes. AD 20171213 required repetitive low frequency eddy current inspections or repetitive high frequency eddy current inspections of the pocket radius at certain areas of the fuselage frame, and repair if necessary. This AD
requires new repetitive inspections at the leftLH and right-hand RH sides of the fuselage skin at certain frames for any cracking, and repair if necessary, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency EASA AD, which is incorporated by reference. This AD was prompted by a report of a crack found during an inspection of the pocket radius of the fuselage frame, and a determination that similar cracks may develop in nearby areas of the fuselage frame and that additional airplanes are subject to the unsafe condition. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
DATES: This AD is effective October 5, 2021.
The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of a certain publication listed in this AD
as of October 5, 2021.
