AD: Airbus Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2014-23-05

PRODUCT: All Airbus Model A318 series airplanes, Model A319 series airplanes, Model A320-211, -212, -214, -231, -232, and -233 airplanes, and Model A321 series airplanes.

ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: This AD was prompted by a report of a circumferential crack at the gland retaining-ring groove of certain retraction actuators on the main landing gear (MLG).

This AD requires an inspection to identify the part numbers of MLG retraction actuators and replacement of certain MLG retraction actuators.

The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent MLG retraction actuator failure that could prevent the full extension and/or down-locking of the MLG, possibly resulting in MLG collapse during landing or rollout, and consequent damage to the airplane and injury to the occupants.

DATES: This AD becomes effective December 26, 2014

FMI: AD
