This paragraph restates the requirements of paragraph (h) of AD 2011-17-09, with new terminating action. Within 3 months after September 30, 2011 (the effective date of AD 2011-17-09): Revise the maintenance program by incorporating Airbus A330 Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS) Part 1, Safe Life Airworthiness Limitation Items (SL-ALI), Revision 05, dated July 29, 2010.

Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by revisions to certain airworthiness limitation item documents, which specify more restrictive instructions and/or airworthiness limitations. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct fatigue cracking, accidental damage, or corrosion in principal structural elements, and possible failure of certain life limited parts, which could result in reduced structural integrity of the airplane.
Affected ADs
This AD replaces AD 2011-17-09, Amendment 39-16773 (76 FR 53305, August 26, 2011) (“AD 2011-17-09”); and AD 2012-25-12, Amendment 39-17293 (77 FR 75825, December 26, 2012) (“AD 2012-25-12”).
