AD: Airbus Airplanes (A330)

AD NUMBER:  2012-22-18

PRODUCT: Certain Airbus Model A330- 243, -243F, -341, -342, and -343 airplanes equipped with Rolls-Royce Trent 700 engines.
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive  2012-22-18
ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY:  This AD was prompted by reports of extensive damage to engine air intake cowls as a result of acoustic panel collapse. This AD requires repetitive inspections of the three inner acoustic panels of both engine air intake cowls to detect disbonding, and corrective actions if necessary.

The FAA is issuing this AD to detect and correct disbonding, which could result in detachment of the engine air intake cowl from the engine leading to ingestion of parts, which could cause failure of the engine, and possible injury to persons on the ground.

DATES: This AD becomes effective December 31, 2012.
