This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to certain Airbus Model A310 and A300-600 series airplanes. This action requires inspections and replacement or reinstallation of certain aft engine mount link assemblies. This amendment is prompted by reports of cracking in the aft engine mount link assemblies. The actions specified in this AD are intended to prevent loss of the capability of the aft engine mount to support engine loads, and possible separation of the engine from the airplane.
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.
