Airworthiness Directive 2011-14-10
one-timeAirworthiness Directives; Airbus Model A330-342 Airplanes
What this AD requires
We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as: * * * * * Following a query from an operator, investigations revealed that some MSN [manufacturer serial number], for which Airbus modification 40391 was indicated as fully embodied inside the Aircraft Inspection Report (AIR), did not have Modification Proposal (MP-S10437) which is part of this modification embodied in production. As a result, ALI [Airworthiness Limitation Item] task 533105-01- 02 has not been performed on the MSN listed in the applicability section of this AD, which constitutes an unsafe condition. * * * * *
Which aircraft AD 2011-14-10 applies to
Applies to manufacturer serial numbers (MSN) 0012 and 0017 only.
Whether AD 2011-14-10 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.
