Models named: A330-223F, -243F, A330-201, -202, -203, -223, -243, A330-301, -302, -303. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.

Applicability*9

This AD applies to all airplanes identified in paragraphs (c)(1) through (3) of this AD, certificated in any category, all manufacturer serial numbers. (1) Airbus SAS Model A330-223F and -243F airplanes. (2) Airbus SAS Model A330-201, -202, -203, -223, and -243 airplanes. (3) Airbus SAS Model A330-301, -302, -303, -321, -322, -323, -341, -342, and -343 airplanes.

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 2018-0276R1, dated January 11, 2019; corrected January 15, 2019 (“EASA AD 2018-0276R1”).

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by an analysis conducted on Airbus SAS Model A330-200 Freighter, -200, and -300 series airplanes that identified structural areas that are susceptible to widespread fatigue damage (WFD). The FAA is issuing this AD to address this condition, which could lead to crack initiation and undetected propagation, reducing the structural integrity of the airplane, possibly resulting in rapid depressurization and consequent injury to occupants.

Affected ADs

None.
