Proposed rule

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS Airplanes

Built by the Tribune's code from the Federal Register. No AI wrote this page. Published in the Federal Register Sept. 11, 2026. Document 2026-18575. Updated Nov. 5, 2026.

What it does

The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Airbus SAS Model A300 B4-600, B4-600R, and F4-600R series airplanes; and Model A300 C4-605R Variant F airplanes (collectively called Model A300-600 series airplanes). This proposed AD was prompted by a determination that new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations are necessary. This proposed AD would require revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
