AD: Airbus

AD NUMBER: 2005-26-07

MANUFACTURER: Airbus Model A318-100, A319-100, A320- 200, A321-100, and A321-200 Series Airplanes; and Model A320-111 Airplanes
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2005-26-07
SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Airbus Model A318-100, A319-100, A320-200, A321-100, and A321-200 series airplanes; and Model A320-111 airplanes. This AD requires revising the airplane flight manual by incorporating new procedures to follow in the event of a fuel leak. This AD results from a determination that, once a fuel leak is detected, fuel management procedures are a critical factor in limiting the consequences of the leak. We are issuing this AD to ensure that the flightcrew is advised of appropriate procedures to follow in the event of a fuel leak, such as isolating the fuel tanks, stopping any fuel transfers, and landing as soon as possible. Failure to follow these procedures could result in excessive fuel loss that could cause the engines to shut down during flight.
