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) AD 2021-0275, dated December 10, 2021 (EASA AD 2021-0275).

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by a report of a slat system jam during landing, the determination that health checks must be repetitive to monitor torque sensor unit (TSU) wear, and the development of a modification that terminates the health checks. The FAA is issuing this AD to address a slat system jam during landing, which could lead to a double shaft disconnection/rupture, potentially causing one or more slat surfaces to be no longer connected to either the slat wing tip brake or the slat power control unit (PCU), possibly resulting in reduced control of the airplane.

Affected ADs

This AD replaces AD 2020-18-04, Amendment 39-21225 (85 FR 54896, September 3, 2020) (AD 2020-18-04).
