Airworthiness Directive 2025-13-12
one-timeAirworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS Airplanes
What this AD requires
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Airbus SAS Model A350-941 and -1041 airplanes. This AD was prompted by a report of loss of control of an outboard aileron surface due to hydraulic fluid contaminating an electronic card of the flight control remote module (FCRM). This AD requires replacing any affected elevator FCRM and prohibits installing aileron or spoiler FCRMs in place of elevator or rudder FCRMs. This AD also limits the installation of FCRMs under certain conditions. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Which aircraft AD 2025-13-12 applies to
Whether AD 2025-13-12 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.
