| 2013-31186 | Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Airplanes | Proposed Rule | We propose to supersede airworthiness directive (AD) 2000-12- 12, for certain Airbus Model A300, A300-600, and A310 series airplanes. AD 2000-12-12 currently requires inspecting to detect cracks in the lower spar axis of the nacelle pylon between ribs 9 and 10, and repair if necessary. AD 2000-12-12 also provides for optional modification of the pylon, which terminates the inspections for Model A300 series airplanes. Since we issued AD 2000-12-12, we have received reports of cracking of the lower pylon spar after accomplishing the existing modification and have determined that shorter initial and repetitive inspection compliance times are necessary to address the identified unsafe condition. This proposed AD would reduce the initial and repetitive inspection compliance times. We are proposing this AD to detect and correct fatigue cracking, which could result in reduced structural integrity of the lower spar of the nacelle pylon. | 2013-12-30 | 2013 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2013/12/30/2013-31186/airworthiness-directives-airbus-airplanes | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2013-12-30/pdf/2013-31186.pdf | Transportation Department; Federal Aviation Administration | 492,159 | We propose to supersede airworthiness directive (AD) 2000-12- 12, for certain Airbus Model A300, A300-600, and A310 series airplanes.
