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

Applicability*9

This AD applies to Airbus SAS Model A330-223F and -243F airplanes, certificated in any category, as identified in European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD 2020-0092, dated April 24, 2020 (“EASA AD 2020-0092”).

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 2020-0092.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by reports of cracked flexible hoses of the oxygen crew and courier distribution system (OCCDS) on Model A330 freighter airplanes. The FAA is proposing this AD to address cracked oxygen hoses. This condition, if not addressed, could lead to oxygen leakage in the flexible hose of the OCCDS, which, in combination with in-flight depressurization, smoke in the flight deck, or a smoke evacuation procedure, could result in crew injury and reduced control of the airplane.

Affected ADs

This AD replaces AD 2019-14-09, Amendment 39-19687 (84 FR 37957, August 5, 2019) (“AD 2019-14-09”).
