AD: Airbus Airplanes (A330-A340)

AD NUMBER: 2012-26-03

PRODUCT: Certain Airbus Model A330- 202, -203, -223, -243, -302, -323, -342, and -343 airplanes; and Model A340-313 airplanes.
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2012-26-03
ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: This AD was prompted by reports that a specific batch of cargo doors might have deviations in quality related to door structure, such as irregular bore holes, improper application of sealant and paint, or uncleanliness. This AD requires inspecting to identify the part and serial numbers of the forward andaft cargo doors, and replacing the affected cargo doors.

The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent the degraded structural capability of the cargo door, a primary structure, from leading to failure of the door, which could lead to a breach through the door or the door detaching from the airplane, resulting in potential rapid decompression.

DATES: This AD becomes effective February 6, 2013.

FMI: AD
