AD: Airbus Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2016-02-02

PRODUCT: All Airbus Model A318-111 and -112 airplanes; Model A319-111, -112, and -115 airplanes; Model A320-214 airplanes; and Model A321-111, -112, -211, -212, and -213 airplanes.

ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: This AD was prompted by reports of cracked cadmium-plated lock nuts that attach the hinge to the fan cowl door.

This AD requires inspecting to determine the serial number of each engine fan cowl door, inspecting for cracking of the hinge lock nuts of any affected door, and replacing the lock nuts if necessary.

The FAA is issuing this AD to detect and correct cracking of the hinge lock nuts, which could result in separation of the hinge from the fan cowl door, in-flight loss of the door, and consequent damage to the airplane.

DATES: This AD becomes effective March 1, 2016.
