Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Model A340-200 and A340-300 Series Airplanes
type: Action
additional type: https://schema.org/LegalForceStatus
description: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above that supersedes an existing AD. 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: * * * * * Engineering analysis using the new calculated loads has shown that the structural integrity of the forward engine mount cannot be guaranteed after either thrust link has accumulated 15500 Flight Cycles (FC). * * * * * A loss of structural integrity of the forward engine mounts could lead to the loss of the load path for the forward engine mount and damage to other engine mount structures, which could result in failure of the forward engine mount, possible separation of the engine from the airplane, damage to the wing, or loss of control of the airplane. This AD requires actions that are intended to address the unsafe condition described in the MCAI.
