AD: Airbus Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2016-12-10

PRODUCT: All Airbus Model A318, A319, A320, and A321 series airplanes.

ACTION: Final Rule; request for comments.

SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2016-09-07 for the aircraft listed above.

AD 2016-09-07 required replacing certain pitot probes on the captain, first officer, and standby sides.

This new AD retains those requirements, but with a revised compliance time. Since AD 2016-09-07 was issued, the FAA received additional reports of airspeed indication discrepancies during flight at high altitudes in inclement weather.

The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent airspeed indication discrepancies caused by accumulation of ice crystals during inclement weather, which, depending on the prevailing altitude, could lead to reduced controllability of the airplane.

DATES: This AD is effective June 29, 2016. Comments must be received by July 29, 2016.

FMI: AD
