Applicability*9
This AD applies to the Airbus airplanes specified in paragraphs (c)(1) through (c)(4) of this AD, certificated in any category, all manufacturer serial numbers. (1) Model A340-211, -212, and -213 airplanes. (2) Model A340-311, -312, and -313 airplanes. (3) Model A340-541 airplanes. (4) Model A340-642 airplanes.
Compliance

Required actions
Within 30 days after the effective date of this AD, request instructions from the Manager, International Section, Transport Standards Branch, FAA, to address the unsafe condition specified in paragraph (e) of this AD; and accomplish the action(s) at the times specified in, and in accordance with, those instructions. Guidance can be found in Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information (MCAI) European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD 2014-0009, dated January 8, 2014.
Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by the revision of certain airworthiness limitation items (ALIs), which specify more restrictive instructions or airworthiness limitations. We are issuing this AD to prevent the failure of certain life-limited parts, which could result in reduced structural integrity of the airplane.
Affected ADs
This AD replaces AD 2011-04-05, Amendment 39-16605 (76 FR 8612, February 15, 2011) (“AD 2011-04-05”).
