AD: Airbus Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2015-21-07

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

ACTION: Final Rule; request for comments

SUMMARY: This AD requires a detailed inspection of the girt installation of each escape slide and slide raft, and corrective action if necessary.

This AD was prompted by a report of incorrect installation of the girt panel on passenger doors and an incorrectly installed quick release (girt) bar into the girt panel of the slide raft.

The FAA is issuing this AD to detect and correct incorrect girt installation of the escape slide and slide raft, which could prevent slide deployment during an emergency, and result in reduced evacuation capacity from the airplane and possible injury to occupants.

DATES: This AD becomes effective November 3, 2015. Comments must be received by December 3, 2015.

FMI: AD
