Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS
Airplanes Federal Aviation Administration FAA, Department of Transportation DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:

The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive AD 201919
06, which applied to certain Airbus SAS
Model A330202, 243, 243F, 302, 323, and 343 airplanes. AD 201919
06 required an inspection to determine the part number and serial number of the slat geared rotary actuators SGRAs, and replacement of each affected SGRA
with a serviceable part. This AD
continues to require replacement of each affected SGRA with a serviceable part, expands the applicability to include all airplanes on which the affected part may be installed, and also prohibits installation of an affected part;

as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency EASA AD, which is incorporated by reference. This AD was prompted by a report that cracks have been found within the ring gears of the SGRAs due to a change in the manufacturing process and inadequate post-production nondestructive testing for potential cracking, and a determination that the requirements of AD 20191906 may not ensure the permanent removal from service of affected SGRAs. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
This AD is effective November 18, 2021.
The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of a certain publication listed in this AD
as of November 18, 2021.
