AD: Airbus Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2015-09-08

PRODUCT: Certain Airbus Model A300 B4-601, B4-603, and B4-605R airplanes; Model A300 F4-605R airplanes; Model A300 C4-605R Variant F airplanes; and Model A310-204 and -304 airplanes; powered by General Electric (GE) Model CF6-80C2 series engines.

ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: This AD was prompted by reports of two single-engine flameout events during inclement weather.

This AD requires installing a shunt of the rotary selector (introducing an auto-relight function); and, for certain airplanes, a wiring modification to a certain circuit breaker panel.

The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent a long engine restart sequence after a nonselection of continuous relight by the crew and a flameout event of both engines, which could result in reduced controllability of the airplane, especially at low altitude.

DATES: This AD becomes effective June 16, 2015

FMI: AD
