Airbus Helicopters Helicopters
This AD applies to Airbus Helicopters AS355E, AS355F, AS355F1, AS355F2, AS355N, AS355NP.
The models as the FAA's AD index lists them. The serial ranges, installed parts and exceptions are in the AD itself: read it at the FAA.
The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2022-19- 13, which applied to all Airbus Helicopters Model AS355E, AS355F, AS355F1, AS355F2, AS355N, and AS355NP helicopters. AD 2022-19-13 required incorporating into existing maintenance records certain requirements (airworthiness limitations). Since the FAA issued AD 2022- 19-13, a determination was made that new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations are necessary. This AD requires revising the airworthiness limitations section (ALS) of the existing maintenance manual (MM) or instructions for continued airworthiness (ICAs) and the existing approved maintenance or inspection program, as applicable. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
