**AIRBUS INDUSTRIE**

**AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVE**

**LARGE AIRCRAFT**

**CORRECTION** *\[Federal Register: August 8, 2002 (Volume 67, Number
153); Page 51459-51461; www.access.gpo.gov/su_docs/aces/aces140.html\]*

**2002-06-09 Airbus Industrie:** Amendment 39-12686. Docket
2002-NM-75-AD.

**Applicability:** All Model A300; A300 B4-600, B4-600R, and F4-600R
(collectively called A300-600); and A310 series airplanes; certificated
in any category.

**Note 1:** This AD applies to each airplane identified in the preceding
applicability provision, regardless of whether it has been modified,
altered, or repaired in the area subject to the requirements of this AD.
For airplanes that have been modified, altered, or repaired so that the
performance of the requirements of this AD is affected, the
owner/operator must request approval for an alternative method of
compliance in accordance with paragraph (f) of this AD. The request
should include an assessment of the effect of the modification,
alteration, or repair on the unsafe condition addressed by this AD; and,
if the unsafe condition has not been eliminated, the request should
include specific proposed actions to address it.

**Compliance:** Required as indicated, unless accomplished previously.

To detect and correct reduced structural integrity of the airplane
following an extreme lateral loading event, accomplish the following:

**Lateral Load Factor Determination**

\(a\) As of the effective date of this AD, before further flight
following an in-flight incident that results in extreme lateral loading,
determine whether the lateral load factor (Ny) equaled or exceeded 0.3g.
Extreme lateral loading can occur as a consequence of severe turbulence,
loss of control of the aircraft involving yaw and/or roll maneuvers,
hazardous systems failures, or other rare flight conditions. Then do the
inspections specified in paragraph (b) or (c) of this AD, as applicable,
at the time specified.

**Note 2:** Acceptable methods for determining if the lateral load
factor equaled or exceeded 0.3g include but are not limited to: Aircraft
Communication Addressing and Reporting System (ACARS), Digital Flight
Data Recorder (DFDR) readout, or Quick Access Recorder (QAR). A pilot
report of extreme lateral acceleration in-flight can be used to assess
whether one of the previous methods should be used to determine the
lateral load factor.

**Note 3:** The inspections specified in paragraphs (b) and (c) of this
AD are not necessary if lateral load factors exceed 0.3g when the
airplane is on the ground (landing, taxiing).

**Inspections for Certain Lateral Load Factors**

\(b\) For airplanes on which the lateral load factor (Ny) is greater
than or equal to 0.3g, but less than 0.35g, accomplish the following
actions:

\(1\) Before further flight, do the detailed inspections specified in
paragraph (d) of this AD.

**Reporting Requirement**

\(2\) Within 5 days after accomplishing the inspections required by
paragraph (b)(1) of this AD: Submit a report to Airbus, including the
DFDR recording (or equivalent) of the portion of the flight when the
extreme lateral loading event occurred, and other relevant information
necessary to fully describe the event and develop the actual loads,
including but not limited to, airplane weight, weather, and flight crew
report. Submit a report of the inspection results (both positive and
negative findings) to Jacques Leborgne, Airbus Industrie Customer
Services Directorate, 1 Rond Point Maurice Bellonte, 31707 Blagnac Cedex
France; fax (+33) 5 61 93 36 14. Information collection requirements
contained in this regulation have been approved by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) under the provisions of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1980 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) and have been assigned
OMB Control Number 2120-0056.

**Note 4:** Following accomplishment of the requirements of paragraphs
(b)(1), (b)(2) and, if necessary, (e) of this AD, the airplane may be
returned to service before accomplishing the inspections required by
paragraph (b)(3) of this AD.

**Supplementary Inspections**

\(3\) The manufacturer will develop an airplane loads assessment and
recommend, if necessary, supplementary inspections of the applicable
areas of the airplane (including the vertical stabilizer, horizontal
stabilizer pylons, wing, and fuselage areas). Within 30 days after the
extreme lateral loading event, do the supplementary inspections of the
airplane according to a method approved by the Manager, International
Branch, ANM-116, FAA, Transport Airplane Directorate.

**Note 5:** The loads assessment, and if necessary, supplementary
inspections required by paragraph (b)(3) of this AD, will be developed
and proposed by the manufacturer based on the manufacturer\'s analysis
of the report required by paragraph (b)(2) of this AD.

**Inspections for Certain Other Lateral Load Factors**
