Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-12064 · Airbus Model A310 Series Airplanes
Airbus Model A310 Series Airplanes
Superseded. A later AD replaced this one: AD 2009-01-09. Comply with the one in force.
All Model A310 series airplanes, certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to all Airbus Model A310 series airplanes, that requires repetitive detailed visual inspections to detect cracks propagating from the fastener holes that attach the left-and right-hand pick-up angles at frame 40 to the wing lower skin and fuselage panel, and corrective actions, if necessary. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent reduced structural integrity of the airplane due to fatigue damage and consequent cracking of the pick-up angles at frame 40. This action is intended to address the identified unsafe condition.
