Applicability*9

This AD applies to the Airbus SAS airplanes specified in paragraphs (c)(1) through (6) of this AD, certificated in any category, as identified in European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD 2020-0255, dated November 13, 2020 (EASA AD 2020-0255). (1) Model A330-201, -202, -203, -223, and -243 airplanes. (2) Model A330-301, -302, -303, -321, -322, -323, -341, -342, and -343 airplanes. (3) Model A340-211, -212, and -213 airplanes. (4) Model A340-311, -312, and -313 airplanes. (5) Model A340-541 airplanes. (6) Model A340-642 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 2020-0255.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by reports that, for certain lower deck mobile crew rest (LDMCR) units, the connection of a certain halon outlet tube to the outlet of a certain fire extinguisher bottle may be incorrect. The FAA is issuing this AD to address this condition, which, in case of a fire inside the LDMCR, could lead to disconnection of the tube, possibly resulting in reduced concentration of fire suppressing agent at any location inside the LDMCR.

Affected ADs

None.
