Applicability*9

This AD applies to all Airbus SAS airplanes identified in paragraphs (c)(1) through (4) of this AD, certificated in any category. (1) Model A300 B4-601, B4-603, B4-620, and B4-622 airplanes. (2) Model A300 B4-605R and B4-622R airplanes. (3) Model A300 C4-605R Variant F airplanes. (4) Model A300 F4-605R and F4-622R airplanes.

Compliance

Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done.

Required actions

This paragraph restates the requirements of paragraph (g) of AD 2019-21-01, with no changes. Within 90 days after November 29, 2019 (the effective date of AD 2019-21-01), revise the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate the information specified in Airbus A300-600 Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS), Part 2, “Damage Tolerant Airworthiness Limitation Items (DT-ALI),” Revision 03, dated December 14, 2018. The initial compliance time for doing the tasks is at the time specified in Airbus A300-600 Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS), Part 2, “Damage Tolerant Airworthiness Limitation Items (DT-ALI),” Revision 03, dated December 14, 2018, or within 90 days after November 29, 2019, whichever occurs later. Accomplishing the revision of the existing maintenance or inspection program required by paragraph (dd) of this AD terminates the requirements of this paragraph.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by a determination that new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations are necessary. The FAA is issuing this AD to address fatigue cracking, damage, and corrosion in principal structural elements. The unsafe condition, if not addressed, could result in reduced structural integrity of the airplane.

Affected ADs

This AD replaces the ADs specified in paragraphs (b)(1) through (9) of this AD. (1) AD 2018-01-07, Amendment 39-19148 (83 FR 2042, January 16, 2018).
