AD: Airbus

AD NUMBER: 2009-01-09
MANUFACTURER: Airbus
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2009-01-09
SUMMARY:
The FAA is superseding an existing airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to all Airbus Model A310 series airplanes. That AD currently requires repetitive detailed inspections to detect cracks propagating from the fastener holes that attach the left- and right-hand pick-up angles at frame 40 to the wing lower skin and fuselage panel, and corrective actions if necessary. This new AD revises the intervals for accomplishing the repetitive detailed inspections and provides for an optional terminating modification for the repetitive inspections. This new AD also revises the applicability of the AD to remove certain airplanes. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information originated by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. We are issuing this AD to prevent reduced structural integrity of the airplane due to fatigue damage, and consequent cracking of the pick-up angles at frame 40.
