Abstract
The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2025-03- 07, which applied to certain Airbus SAS Model A318, A319, and A320 series airplanes; and Model A321-111, -112, -131, -211, -212, -213, - 231, -232, -251N, -252N, -253N, -271N, -272N, -251NX, -252NX, -253NX, - 271NX, and -272NX airplanes. AD 2025-03-07 required revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations. Since the FAA issued AD 2025-03-07, the FAA has determined that new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations are necessary. This AD continues to require certain actions in AD 2025-03-07 and requires revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations, and expands the applicability. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
