AD 2016-06-03 Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Airplanes
Models named: A319-131, -132, -133, A320-232, -233, A321-131, -231, -232. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.
Applicability*9
This AD applies to the Airbus airplanes, certificated in any category, identified in paragraphs (c)(1), (c)(2), and (c)(3) of this AD, all manufacturer serial numbers. (1) Model A319-131, -132, and -133 airplanes. (2) Model A320-232 and -233 airplanes. (3) Model A321-131, -231, and -232 airplanes.
Compliance
Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done.
Required actions
Except as provided by paragraph (i) of this AD, at the earliest of the times specified in paragraphs (g)(1) through (g)(4) of this AD: For each engine, identify the part number of the forward engine mount, and the part number and serial number of the attachment pin for that forward engine mount, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Airbus Service Bulletin A320-71-1064, Revision 01, dated April 1, 2015; and Goodrich Aerostructures Service Bulletin V2500-NAC-71-0323, Revision 01, dated January 28, 2015. A review of airplane maintenance records is acceptable in lieu of this identification if the part number of the forward engine mount, and the part number and serial number of the attachment pin for that forward engine mount, can be conclusively determined from that review. If any part number of the forward engine mount, or part number or serial number of the attachment pins for the forward engine mount, cannot be identified: At the earliest of the times specified in paragraphs (g)(1) through (g)(4) of this AD, contact the Manager, International Branch, ANM-116, Transport Airplane Directorate, FAA; or the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA); or Airbus's EASA Design Organization Approval (DOA), for identification information. (1) Within 24 months after the effective date of this AD. (2) At the next engine removal after the effective date of this AD. (3) Within 7,500 flight hours after the effective date of this AD. (4) Within 5,000 flight cycles after the effective date of this AD.
Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by reports of forward engine mount attachment pins that were manufactured from discrepant raw material. We are issuing this AD to prevent failure of a forward engine mount attachment pin, possible loss of an engine in-flight, and consequent reduced controllability of the airplane.
Affected ADs
None.

You just looked this one up by hand
TrackAD holds all 12,278 of them and matches them against the aircraft you actually look after — airframe, engine, propeller and appliances in one pass — then works out what falls due and when.
- Bring your existing list in from a spreadsheet Paste the rows straight out of Excel. Headers like C/W Date and N/A are read for you.
- A copy that works when this does not One file. No internet, no login, no this software running. For the morning something has to be produced and the computer is not cooperating.
- $5 a month, or $50 a year Up to 50 aircraft on either.
