AD: Airbus

AD NUMBER: 2009-20-06

MANUFACTURER: Airbus Model A310-203 and -222 Airplanes and Model A300 B4-620 Airplanes
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2009-20-06

SUMMARY: This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by an aviation authority of another country. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as:

Following the life extension activities linked to the A310 program, the interval of inspection for A310-200 aircraft series was reduced from 12000 flight cycles (FC) to 9000 FC . Some stress analysis conducted in the frame of the life extension activities of the A300-600 program leads the manufacturer to reduce as well the interval of inspection applicable to A300B4- 620 and A300C4-620 aircraft models.

The unsafe condition is cracking in the attachment angles of the rear pressure bulkhead, which could result in failure of the rear pressure bulkhead. We are issuing this AD to require actions to correct the unsafe condition on these products
