- What it does
The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Airbus Helicopters Model AS350B2, AS350B3, and EC130B4 helicopters. This proposed AD was prompted by a report of an occurrence of partial blocking of a pilot pedal. This proposed AD would require modifying and reidentifying an affected fuse cover and would prohibit installing an affected fuse cover on any helicopter. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
