This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Airbus Model A300 B2 and A300 B4 series airplanes; certain Model A300 F4-605R airplanes and Model A300 B4-600 and A300 B4-600R series airplanes; and certain Model A310 series airplanes, that requires repetitive inspections to detect damage of the fillet seals and feeder cables, and of the wiring looms in the wing/ pylon interface area; and corrective action, if necessary. This amendment also provides for optional terminating action for the repetitive inspections. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent wire chafing and short circuits in the wing leading edge/ pylon interface area, which could result in loss of the power supply generator and/or system functions. 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.
