2021-24-20: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Airbus SAS Model A350-941 and -1041 airplanes. This AD was prompted by reports of slat transmission jams caused by frozen slat geared rotary actuators (SGRAs) at slat 5 track 12. This AD requires repetitive water drainage and plug cleaning of the left- and right-hand SGRAs having a certain part number installed on slat 5 track 12 with certain functional item numbers, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is incorporated by reference. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
2010-05-07: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as: A review of A340 missions has demonstrated that CFM56-5C forward engine mount thrust links fitted with oversized bearing[s] will not reach the updated link fatigue life limit of 15,500 Flight Cycles (FC) due to an increase in bore diameter. * * * The consequent potential failure of the affected thrust link would reduce the forward engine mounts' structural integrity and could eventually lead to engine separation, constituting an unsafe condition. * * * * * This AD requires actions that are intended to address the unsafe condition described in the MCAI.
