Applicability*9

This AD applies to all Airbus SAS Model airplanes specified in paragraphs (c)(1) through (4) of this AD, certificated in any category. (1) Model A318-111, -112, -121, and -122 airplanes. (2) Model A319-111, -112, -113, -114, -115, -131, -132, -133, -151N, -153N, -171N, and -173N airplanes. (3) Model A320-211, -212, -214, -216, -231, -232, -233, -251N, -252N, -253N, -271N, -272N, and -273N airplanes. (4) Model A321-111, -112, -131, -211, -212, -213, -231, -232, -251N, -251NX, -252N, -252NX, -253N, -253NX, -253NY, -271N, -271NX, -271NY, -272N, and -272NX airplanes.

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 2025-0167, dated July 30, 2025 (EASA AD 2025-0167).

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by a determination that a batch of main landing gear (MLG) aft pintle pins did not have nickel plating applied to the inner bore during manufacturing. The FAA is issuing this AD to address MLG aft pintle pins without nickel plating. The unsafe condition, if not corrected, could lead to the development of corrosion with potential crack initiation in the affected parts, possibly resulting in a MLG collapse, with consequent damage to the airplane and injury to occupants.

Affected ADs

None.

You just looked this one up by hand

TrackAD holds all 12,278 of them and matches them against the aircraft you actually look after — airframe, engine, propeller and appliances in one pass — then works out what falls due and when.
