AD: Airbus

AD NUMBER: 2009-15-10

MANUFACTURER: Airbus Model A330-301, -321, -322, -341, and -342 Series Airplanes,
and Airbus Model A340-211, -212, -213, -311, -312, and -313 Series Airplanes

SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2009-15-10

SUMMARY: 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 accomplishment of A330-300 Airworthiness Limitation Item (ALI) task 57.11.04-01-02 of a fastener hole between stringer 38 and 39 at FR40 rear fitting web, a crack was found on an adjacent hole at vertical post Y1959 lower attachment on both sides.

Other crack findings on this adjacent hole have been reported on A330-300 and A340-200/-300 aircraft as a result of sampling inspections. 

If not corrected, crack propagation could result in loss of the fuselage structural integrity.

This AD requires actions that are intended to address the unsafe condition described in the MCAI.

DATES: This AD becomes effective August 5, 2009.
