Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-12306 · Airbus Model A310 Series Airplanes and Airbus Model A300 B4-600, B4-600R, and F4-600R (Collectively Called A300-600) Series Airplanes
Airbus Model A310 Series Airplanes and Airbus Model A300 B4-600, B4-600R, and F4-600R (Collectively Called A300-600) Series Airplanes
Model A310 series airplanes and Model A300 B4- 600, B4-600R, and F4-600R (collectively called A300-600) series airplanes, certificated in any category; with installed Inertial Reference Units (IRU) Honeywell 10 MCU part number (P/N) HG1050BD02 or HG1050BD05.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Airbus Model A310 series airplanes and Model A300 B4-600, B4-600R, and F4-600R (collectively called A300-600) series airplanes, that requires revising the Airplane Flight Manual to prohibit the airplane from being moved during inertial reference unit alignment. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent a loss of positioning data and a display of incorrect attitude data to the flight crew, which could result in severe consequences to the airworthiness of the airplane if operated under flight conditions with no visual reference. This action is intended to address the identified unsafe condition.
The aircraft, engines and makers this AD names, by the model designations in its text. A model listed here may still be outside the AD's serial ranges.
