AD: Airbus Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2015-03-06

PRODUCT: All Airbus Model A330-200, A330-300, A340-200, A340-300, A340-500, and A340-600 series airplanes.

ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2007-22-10 for the products listed above.

AD 2007-22-10 required repetitive inspections of the left-hand and right-hand wing main landing gear (MLG) rib 6 aft bearing lugs (forward and aft) to detect any cracks on the two lugs, and replacement if necessary.

Since we issued AD 2007-22-10, we have received reports of additional cracking of the MLG rib 6 aft bearing forward lug.

This new AD expands the applicability and reduces certain compliance times. The FAA is issuing this AD to detect and correct cracking of the MLG rib 6 aft bearing lugs, which could result in collapse of the MLG upon landing.

DATES: This AD becomes effective March 25, 2015.

FMI: AD
