AD: Airbus Helicopters

AD NUMBER: 2016-12-51

PRODUCT: Airbus Helicopters Model AS332L2 and Model EC225LP helicopters, which was sent previously to all known U.S. owners and operators of these helicopters.

ACTION: Final Rule; request for comments

SUMMARY: This AD immediately prohibits flight of all Model AS332L2 and EC225LP helicopters.

This AD is prompted by an accident involving an EC225LP helicopter in which the main rotor hub (MRH) detached from the main gearbox (MGB).

These actions are intended to prevent failure of the main rotor system and subsequent loss of control of the helicopter.

DATES: This AD becomes effective July 20, 2016 to all persons except those persons to whom it was made immediately effective by Emergency AD 2016-12-51, issued on June 3, 2016, which contains the requirements of this AD. Comments must be received on this AD by September 6, 2016.
