Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-23382 · Airbus Helicopters Helicopters
Airbus Helicopters Helicopters
This AD applies to Airbus Helicopters H160-B.
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 adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Airbus Helicopters Model H160-B helicopters. This AD was prompted by a discovery during a maintenance operation that several self-locking nuts of the window jettisoning system could be loosened by hand due to a non-conformity in certain cable kits. This AD requires modifying each affected window into a serviceable window. This AD also prohibits installing an affected window or an affected door on any helicopter. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
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.
