Compliance
Comply with this emergency AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done.
Required actions
Except as specified in paragraph (h) of this emergency AD: Comply with all required actions and compliance times specified in, and in accordance with, European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) Emergency AD 2025-0268-E, dated November 28, 2025 (EASA Emergency AD 2025-0268-E).
Unsafe condition
This emergency AD was prompted by an uncommanded and limited pitch down event that occurred on an Airbus A320 airplane, where the autopilot remained engaged with a brief and limited loss of altitude. The FAA is issuing this emergency AD to address a malfunction of the affected elevator aileron computer (ELAC). The unsafe condition could lead to an uncommanded elevator movement that may result in exceeding the aircraft's structural capability and consequent loss of continued safe flight and landing.
Affected ADs
None.
