Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Industrie Model A320 Series Airplanes

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Airbus Model A320 series airplanes, that requires repetitive inspections to detect cracking in the inner flange of door frame 66, and corrective actions, if necessary. This amendment also provides for an optional terminating action for the repetitive inspections. This amendment is prompted by issuance of mandatory continuing airworthiness information by a foreign civil airworthiness authority. The actions specified by this AD are intended to correct fatigue cracking in the inner flange of door frame 66, which could result in reduced structural integrity of the airplane.
