AD: Airbus SAS Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2018-16-03

PRODUCT: All Airbus SAS Model A319-133 airplanes and Model A321-232 airplanes.

ACTION: Final rule; request for comments.

SUMMARY:  This AD requires modification and re-identification, or replacement, of certain engine fan cowl doors (FCDs) and installation of a placard in the flight deck.

This AD was prompted by reports of in-service engine FCD losses, and the development of a new FCD front latch and keeper assembly that addresses this unsafe condition.

DATES: This AD becomes effective August 23, 2018. Comments must be received by September 24, 2018.

COST: The FAA estimates  there are no affected U.S.-registered airplanes. If an affected airplane is imported and placed on the U.S. Register in the future, the cost of compliance is estimated as follows:

  • Labor; 6 work-hours × $85 per hour = $510. Parts; $4,813. Cost per aircraft; $5,323.
