Airworthiness Directive 04-9241
one-timeAirworthiness Directives; Airbus Model A300 B4-600, B4-600R, C4-605R Variant F, and F4-600R (Collectively Called A300-600) Series Airplanes; and Model A310 Series Airplanes
What this AD requires
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to certain Airbus Model A300 B4-600, B4-600R, C4 605R Variant F, and F4-600R (collectively called A300-600) series airplanes; and Model A310 series airplanes. This action requires a one-time inspection for damage of the integrated drive generator electrical harness and pyramid arm, and repair if necessary. This action is necessary to prevent electrical arcing within the engine pylon, which could result in loss of the relevant alternating current (AC) bus bar, reduced structural integrity of the engine pylon, and consequent loss of control of the airplane. This action is intended to address the identified unsafe condition.
Which aircraft AD 04-9241 applies to
Whether AD 04-9241 actually applies to your aircraft (by serial and installed parts) and whether it’s already complied with comes from that aircraft’s records.
How AD compliance is recorded
A valid compliance record (14 CFR 43.9) states:
Tailplate reads a tail number’s logbooks and matches every applicable AD — including this one — to its compliance evidence, with recurring next-due dates computed.
