Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-11366 · Airbus Model A310-300 and A300-600R Series Airplanes
Airbus Model A310-300 and A300-600R Series Airplanes
Model A310-300 and A300-600R series airplanes, except those airplanes on which Airbus Modification 10003 (reference Airbus Service Bulletin A310-28-2058, Revision 2, dated February 22, 1995, or A300-28-6035, Revision 03, dated August 5, 1999) has been accomplished; certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Airbus Model A310-300 and A300-600R series airplanes, that requires installation of a new cover assembly, associated new drain and vent pipework, and a new electrical harness on the trimmable horizontal stabilizer for the fuel tank water scavenge motive pump. This amendment is prompted by issuance of mandatory continuing airworthiness information by a foreign civil airworthiness authority. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent fuel leakage from the seal of the water scavenge pumps, which, if not corrected, could result in leakage of fuel into fuselage areas not designed for fuel, and consequent potential for fuel to be in contact with a fuel ignition source.
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.
