REASON/DESCRIPTION/OPERATIONAL CONSEQUENCES

The bogie pivot pin ensures the connection between the landing gear slider and the bogie beam. This

component is a Principal Structural Element (PSE).

In-service feed-backs indicate an increasing number of bogie pivot pin replacements due to unexpected

findings upon removal. Operators report a high number of events related to chrome detachment or

chrome dragging. There have been a number of confirmed crackings of the bogie pivot pins since Entry

Into Service (EIS).

This Service Bulletin is published to advise all operators of A340-500/-600 aircraft of the issue of

Messier-Dowty Service Bulletin No. A34/56M-32-46 for MLG and Messier-Dowty Service Bulletin No.

A34/56C-32-117 for CLG.

VSB A34/56M-32-46 and A34/56C-32-117 details:

- Detailed Visual Inspections (DVI) of the bogie pivot pin chromium-plated surface

- Magnetic Particle Inspections (MPI) of the bogie pivot pin if damage is found to the chromiumplated surface

- DVI’s of the pivot pin bushes in the bogie beam and sliding tube.

These inspections will:

- make sure that all damaged bogie pivot pins and bushes are repaired or replaced if found

damaged

- gather detailed information from the fleet to further investigate this issue.

(1) History

The bogie pivot pin ensures the connection between the landing gear slider and the

bogie beam. This component is a Principal Structural Element (PSE).

In-service feed-backs indicate an increasing number of bogie pivot pin replacements due

to unexpected findings upon removal. Operators report a high number of events related

to chrome detachment or chrome dragging. There have been a number of confirmed

crackings of the bogie pivot pins since Entry Into Service (EIS).

(2) Objective/Action

This Service Bulletin is published to advise all operators of A340-500/-600 aircraft of the

issue of Messier-Dowty Service Bulletin No. A34/56M-32-46 for MLG and Messier-Dowty

Service Bulletin No. A34/56C-32-117 for CLG.

VSB A34/56M-32-46 and A34/56C-32-117 details:

- Detailed Visual Inspections (DVI) of the bogie pivot pin chromium-plated surface

- Magnetic Particle Inspections (MPI) of the bogie pivot pin if damage is found to the

chromium-plated surface

- DVI’s of the pivot pin bushes in the bogie beam and sliding tube.

SERVICE BULLETIN

D. DESCRIPTION

To accomplish this Service Bulletin it is necessary to :

Task 325096-832-895-001: INSPECTION

(1) REMOVE THE MLG BOGIE BEAM ASSEMBLY PIVOT PIN (LH/RH)

(2) DO AN INSPECTION/CHECK OF THE PIVOT PINS OF THE MLG (LH/RH) BOGIE

BEAM ASSEMBLIES

(3) REMOVE THE CLG BOGIE BEAM ASSEMBLY PIVOT PIN

(4) DO AN INSPECTION/CHECK OF THE PIVOT PINS OF THE CLG BOGIE BEAM

ASSEMBLIES

(5) REPAIR OR REPLACE THE BOGIE BEAM PIVOT PIN AND THE BOGIE BEAM

BUSHES

(6) INSTALL THE MLG BOGIE BEAM ASSEMBLY PIVOT PIN (LH/RH)

(7) INSTALL THE CLG BOGIE BEAM ASSEMBLY PIVOT PIN

E. COMPLIANCE

(1) Classification

MANDATORY: Service Bulletin must be accomplished.

(2) Accomplishment Timescale

Within 26 months after the effective date of the Airworthiness Directive (AD) or the first

flight, whichever occurs later, but not before the accumulation of 12 months since first

flight.

Repeat the inspection at intervals not exceeding 26 months.

Accomplishment of this Service Bulletin is expected to be rendered mandatory by the

issue of an Airworthiness Directive (AD) published by the European Aviation Safety

Agency (EASA). It is anticipated that the AD will confirm the (thresholds and/or intervals

and/or date) given but reference should be made to the AD for confirmation of the

mandated accomplishment timescale.

NOTE: The threshold and grace period may change subject to the receipt of

further data.

SERVICE BULLETIN

If an aircraft listed in the effectivity has a modification or repair embodied that is not of

AIRBUS origin, and which affects the content of this Service Bulletin, the operator is

responsible for obtaining approval by its airworthiness authority for any adaptation necessary

before incorporation of the Service Bulletin.

G. MANPOWER

The manpower estimates given in this Service Bulletin are based on the direct labor cost to

do the work. These estimates assume that the work will be done by experienced personnel,

and may need to be revised upwards to suit operator’s circumstances. The estimates do not

include the time to prepare, plan or inspect the work. Manufacture and procurement of parts
