Applicability*9

This AD applies to the Airbus SAS airplanes specified in paragraphs (c)(1), (c)(2), (c)(3), and (c)(4) of this AD, certificated in any category, all manufacturer serial numbers. (1) Model A318-111, -112, -121, and -122 airplanes. (2) Model A319-111, -112, -113, -114, -115, -131, -132, and -133 airplanes. (3) Model A320-211, -212, -214, -216, -231, -232, and -233 airplanes.

Required actions

This paragraph restates the requirements of paragraph (g) of AD 2014-20-04, with no changes. For Model A320-211 and -231 series airplanes, manufacturer serial numbers 003 through 092 inclusive: Prior to the accumulation of 12,000 total landings on the airplane, or within 300 days after January 10, 1994 (the effective date of AD 93-24-11, Amendment 39-8760 (58 FR 64875, December 10, 1993)), whichever occurs later, modify the belly fairing structure, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of an Airbus service bulletin specified in paragraph (g)(1), (g)(2), or (g)(3) of this AD. As of November 7, 2014 (the effective date of AD 2014-20-04), use only the Airbus service bulletin specified in paragraph (g)(3) of this AD. (1) Airbus Industrie Service Bulletin A320-53-1014, dated June 25, 1992. (2) Airbus Industrie Service Bulletin A320-53-1014, Revision 1, dated May 26, 1993. (3) Airbus Service Bulletin A320-53-1014, Revision 2, dated September 1, 1994.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by reports of cracks at the lower riveting of the four titanium angles that connect the belly fairing to the keel beam side panels on both sides of the fuselage. We are issuing this AD to address cracking of the titanium angles that connect the belly fairing to the keel beam side panels on both sides of the fuselage, which could affect the structural integrity of the airplane.

Affected ADs

This AD replaces AD 2014-20-04, Amendment 39-17977 (79 FR 59636, October 3, 2014) (“AD 2014-20-04”).
