Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS Airplanes

What this AD requires

The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2020-22- 03, which applied to all Airbus SAS Model A330-200, -200 Freighter, and -300 series airplanes. AD 2020-22-03 required revising the existing airplane flight manual (AFM) to incorporate procedures to be applied if an engine bleed over-temperature occurs when the associated engine bleed valve is jammed open, and provided for the optional embodiment of updated flight warning computer (FWC) software, which terminated the AFM revision. This AD was prompted by the development of new maintenance actions and software related to over-temperature failure conditions. This AD continues to require the actions specified in AD 2020-22-03, requires accomplishing the new maintenance tasks and corrective actions, and mandates embodiment of the updated FWC software for certain airplanes, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is incorporated by reference. This AD also prohibits the installation of affected FWC software. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

Whether AD 2022-17-08 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:

Method of compliance — The specific action taken (inspected, replaced, modified) and to what revision.
Date — When the work was done.
Aircraft time — Total time in service / tach at compliance — how recurring next-due is computed.
Signature & certificate — The A&P/IA who returned it to service, with certificate number.
Is AD 2022-17-08 complied with on your aircraft?

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.

Applicability is derived from the FAA directive corpus and is advisory, not a legal airworthiness determination. Compliance is established only from an aircraft’s actual records.
