AD 2021-22-18 Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS Airplanes
Models named: A350-941, -1041. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.
Applicability*9
This AD applies to all Airbus SAS Model A350-941 and -1041 airplanes, certificated in any category.
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, European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) EASA AD 2021-0085, dated March 19, 2021 (EASA AD 2021-0085).
Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by a report of a broken forward guide arm found during a passenger door emergency opening test. Investigation results indicated that the opening speed of the door was higher than expected, likely caused by a reduced damping due to oil leakage of the passenger door damper emergency opening actuator (DEOA). The FAA is issuing this AD to address failure of a passenger door to perform its intended function during an emergency opening, which could result in reduced evacuation capacity from the airplane and injury to occupants.
Affected ADs
None.
