Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by revisions of certain Airbus Airworthiness Limitation Items (ALI) documents, which require more restrictive maintenance requirements and airworthiness limitations. We are issuing this AD to prevent fatigue cracking, damage, or corrosion in principal structural elements, which could result in reduced structural integrity of the airplane.
Affected ADs
This AD affects AD 2011-10-17, Amendment 39-16698 (76 FR 27875, May 13, 2011).
