AD: Airbus Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2014-20-19

PRODUCT: All Airbus Model A330-200 Freighter, 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) 2013-10-06, for the products listed above.

AD 2013-10-06 required an inspection to identify the installed windshields, and replacement of any affected windshield. This new AD requires expanding the inspection area to 15 additional windshields' serial numbers.

This AD was prompted by several reports of a burning smell and/or smoke in the cockpit during cruise phase, leading in some cases, to diversion to alternate airports. The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent significantly increased workload for the flight crew, which could, under some flight phases and/or circumstances, constitute an unsafe condition.

DATES: This AD becomes effective December 11, 2014.

FMI: AD
