Models named: A320-271N, A321-271N, A321-272N. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.

Applicability*9

This AD applies to Airbus Model A320-271N, A321-271N, and A321-272N airplanes, certificated in any category, all manufacturer serial numbers.

Compliance

Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done.

Required actions

For the purpose of this AD, affected engines are International Aero Engines Model PW1127G-JM, PW1127GA-JM, PW1130G-JM, PW1133G-JM, and PW1133GA-JM engines, having engine serial numbers P770450 and subsequent.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by reports of two engine in-flight shutdowns (IFSDs) and two rejected takeoffs. We are issuing this AD to address a high-pressure compressor (HPC) rear hub knife edge seal fracture, which could lead to a sudden increase in high rotor vibration and stall in certain PW1100G-JM engines, and consequent IFSDs or rejected takeoffs.

Affected ADs

None.
