Is AD 96-9337 a recurring Airworthiness Directive?

No — AD 96-9337 is a one-time directive. Verify it was complied with in the aircraft's records.

Which aircraft does AD 96-9337 apply to?

AD 96-9337 applies to Airbus — models A300-600. Serial/part conditions may narrow it to specific aircraft.

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Model A310 and A300-600 Series Airplanes

What this AD requires

This amendment supersedes an existing airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to all Airbus Model A310 and A300-600 series airplanes, that currently requires a revision to the FAA-approved Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) that warns the flight crew about certain consequences associated with overriding the autopilot while it is in the COMMAND mode or in the pitch axis. That AD also requires modification of certain flight control computers (FCC). This amendment requires replacement of the currently required revision to the AFM with a newly worded revision that explains the effect the modification of the FCC's has on the operation and performance of the autopilot and that clarifies the limitation for unmodified airplanes. This amendment is prompted by the results of an FAA review of the requirements of the existing AD. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent an out-of-trim condition between the trimmable horizontal stabilizer and the elevator, which could severely reduce controllability of the airplane.

Whether AD 96-9337 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 96-9337 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.
