- What it does
The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Airbus SAS Model A318-111 and -112 airplanes; Model A319- 111, -112, -113, -114, -115, -131, -132, and -133 airplanes; Model A320-211, -212, -214, -216, -231, -232, and -233 airplanes; and Model A321-111, -112, -131, -211, -212, -213, -231, and -232 airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by reports of damage to the YZ-axis attachment points on airplanes equipped with certain overhead stowage compartments (OHSC) bins. Investigations showed that bushings, retainer rings, and pins had migrated from their original positions. This proposed AD would require a one-time inspection for discrepancies of affected OHSC bins and, depending on findings, accomplishment of applicable corrective actions. This proposed AD would also prohibit the installation of affected parts. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
