AD: Airbus Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2012-22-12

PRODUCT: All Airbus Model A330-243, -243F, -341, -342, and -343 airplanes.
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2012-22-12
ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: This AD was prompted by reports of cracking of air intake cowls on Rolls-Royce Trent engines, worn and detached attachment links, and fractured thermal antiice (TAI) piccolo tubes. This AD requires inspecting piccolo tubes, piccolo tube mount links, the aft side of the forward bulkhead, and outer boundary angles (OBA) for cracks, fractures, and broken links, and corrective actions if necessary. Th FAA is issuing this AD to prevent degraded structural integrity of the engine nose cowl in case of forward bulkhead damage in conjunction with a broken piccolo tube, and damage to the engine due to operation in icing conditions with reduced TAI performance.

DATES: This AD becomes effective December 14, 2012.

FMI: AD
