AD: Airbus

AD NUMBER: 2008-17-02
MANUFACTURER: Airbus
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2008-17-02
SUMMARY:
We are superseding an existing airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product.The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as: During routine visual inspection, a crack has been found in the wing MLG (main landing gear) rib 5 forward attachment lug on two A310 in-service aircraft. Laboratory examination of one of the cracked ribs confirmed that the crack is due to the presence of pitting corrosion in the forward lug holes. Also on both aircraft medium to heavy corrosion was found in the forward lugs on the opposite wing after removal of the bushes. This situation if not detected, could affect the structural integrity of the MLG attachment. We are issuing this AD to require actions to correct the unsafe condition on these products.
