Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-21373 · Fuselage
Airbus SAS Airplanes
This AD applies to Airbus SAS Model A330-243, -343, and -941 airplanes, certificated in any category, as identified in European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD 2020-0209, dated October 5, 2020 (EASA AD 2020-0209).
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Airbus SAS Model A330-243, -343, and -941 airplanes. This AD was prompted by a report that during an inspection of the wing/fuselage fillet interface, evidence of black stains and white oxidation was found on several areas of the fillet fairing adjustable rods due to surface corrosion. This AD requires replacing each affected fillet fairing adjustable rod with a serviceable part, 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 2020-0209.
The “Remarks” section of EASA AD 2020-0209 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.
