Models named: A320-214, -271N, A321-211, -231. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.

Applicability*9

This AD applies to Airbus SAS Model A320-214 and -271N airplanes and Model A321-211 and -231 airplanes, certificated in any category, as identified in European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD 2019-0005, dated January 14, 2019 (“EASA AD 2019-0005”).

Compliance

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

Required actions

Except as specified in paragraph (h) of this AD: Comply with all required actions and compliance times specified in, and in accordance with, EASA AD 2019-0005.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by a test of a new wall partition for a certain cabin attendant seat model that revealed the backrest was permanently deformed and did not allow the seat pan to return to a full-up position; investigation results identified that a heat treatment had not been applied on certain backframes. The FAA is issuing this AD to address this condition, which, if not corrected, could reduce the escape path through the adjacent exit door in case of evacuation, possibly resulting in injury to passengers or flightcrew.

Affected ADs

None.
