Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-19706 · Power plant
Airbus SAS Airplanes
This AD applies to Airbus SAS Model A350-941 and -1041 airplanes, certificated in any category, as identified in European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD 2019-0175, dated July 19, 2019 (“EASA AD 2019-0175”).
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Airbus SAS Model A350-941 and -1041 airplanes. This AD was prompted by a report of a front engine mount primary pin which moved axially out of place; investigation revealed that incorrect washers had been installed on the engine mount pins. This AD requires a one-time inspection of the washers installed on the front and rear engine mount primary pins and thrust link pins of both engines, depending on configuration, and corrective actions if necessary, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is incorporated by reference. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Except as specified in paragraph (h) of this AD: Comply with all required actions and compliance times specified in, and in accordance with, EASA AD 2019-0175.
(1) For purposes of determining compliance with the requirements of this AD: Where EASA AD 2019-0175 refers to its effective date, this AD requires using the effective date of this AD.
(2) Paragraph (4) of EASA AD 2019-0175 specifies to report inspection results to Airbus within a certain compliance time. For this AD, report inspection results at the applicable time specified in paragraph (h)(2)(i) or (h)(2)(ii) of this AD.
(i) If the inspection was done on or after the effective date of this AD: Submit the report within 60 days after the inspection.
(ii) If the inspection was done before the effective date of this AD: Submit the report within 60 days after the effective date of this AD.
(3) The “Remarks” section of EASA AD 2019-0175 does not apply to this AD.
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.
