AD 2024-10-01 Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS Airplanes
Models named: A330-841, A330-941. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.
Applicability*9
This AD applies to Airbus SAS Model A330-841 and A330-941 airplanes, certificated in any category, as identified in European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD 2023-0169, dated September 4, 2023 (EASA AD 2023-0169).
Compliance
Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done.
Required actions
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 2023-0169.
Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by a report of a protective cap found still in place on the drain hole of a fire extinguishing pipe, and by further investigations indicating these caps may have remained on other airplanes. The FAA is issuing this AD to address protective caps possibly remaining in place on fire extinguishing pipes installed on the affected airplanes. The unsafe condition, if not addressed, could result in accumulation of water and ice in the pipe and, in case of an engine fire, prevent extinguishing that engine fire, possibly resulting in reduced control of the airplane.
Affected ADs
None.
