Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-9999 · Airbus Model A310 Series Airplanes
Airbus Model A310 Series Airplanes
Model A310 series airplanes as listed in Airbus Service Bulletin A310-24-2065, dated November 30, 1995, and Revision 1, dated April 19, 1996; certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Airbus Model A310 series airplanes, that requires modification of the wiring for certain hydraulic fire shutoff valves to the right engine to prevent chafing. This amendment is prompted by reports indicating that a circuit breaker to wiring in the right engine had tripped on two airplanes, the cause of which has been attributed to chafing of the associated wire bundle. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent this wiring from chafing which, if not corrected, could lead to short circuiting of this wiring and the consequent inability to close the hydraulic fire shutoff valves to the right engine in the event of fire.
