Models named: AS332C, AS332C1, AS332L, AS332L1, AS332L2, EC225LP. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.
Applicability*9
This AD applies to Airbus Helicopters Model AS332C, AS332C1, AS332L, AS332L1, AS332L2, and EC225LP helicopters, certificated in any category, as identified in European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD 2021-0012, dated January 11, 2021 (EASA AD 2021-0012).
Compliance
Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done.
Required actions
(1) Except as specified in paragraphs (h) and (i) of this AD: Comply with all required actions and compliance times specified in, and in accordance with, EASA AD 2021-0012. (2) As of the effective date of this AD, do not install a jettisonable window on any helicopter unless the actions required by this AD have been accomplished.
Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by a report of an emergency exit window that required excessive pushing force to jettison caused by friction between the jettisonable window and the airframe. The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent excessive friction between the jettisonable cabin window and the airframe. The unsafe condition, if not addressed, could prevent the window from jettisoning, subsequently affecting the evacuation of passengers during an emergency situation.
Affected ADs
Accomplishing the actions required by this AD terminates all requirements of AD 2020-20-08, Amendment 39-21264 (85 FR 70955, November 6, 2020).
