### TITLE: FUSELAGE - FUSELAGE TAIL SECTION AND TAIL CONE FR80-FR103 - REINFORCE THS SUPPORT STRUTS AT FR91 BY CLAMPS **CONF ALL MODIFICATIONS MODIFICATION CLASSIFICATION MAJOR 13682D23322 MINOR None NOTE: As per EASA IR 21, a minor change is one that has no appreciable effect on the mass, balance, structural strength, reliability, operational characteristics affecting the airworthiness of the product. All other changes are major changes. REASON/DESCRIPTION/OPERATIONAL CONSEQUENCES The Trimmable Horizontal Stabilizer (THS) is supported and articulated at Frame 91. Any lateral movement is prevented by four diagonal support struts. During maintenance, support struts have been found cracked on some aircraft. The affected area is the strut end and typical cracks are longitudinal. On some aircraft, several cracks per support strut have been found. Inspection Service Bulletin A300-53-0395 inspects the struts for cracks. This Service Bulletin installs reinforcing clamps on the strut ends as a temporary solution. A permanent solution is expected to be introduced by Service Bulletin at a later date. By installing the clamp, the circumferential stresses in the rod-ends are reduced and the circular shape of the rod end is supported. As a result, the tendency to stress corrosion of the rod ends is stopped (or partially reduced) due to the lower circumferential stresses. Furthermore, the steel insert in the rod ends is properly kept in place due to maintaining the circular shape of the rod ends even in case of existing cracks.

Service Bulletin No. A300-53-0395 NOTE: A300-53-0395 FUSELAGE - TAIL CONE - THS SUPPORT STRUTS AT FR91 - INSPECTION FOR CRACKS C. REASON (1) History The Trimmable Horizontal Stabilizer (THS) is supported and articulated at Frame 91. Any lateral movement is prevented by four diagonal support struts. During maintenance, support struts have been found cracked on some aircraft. The affected area is the strut end and typical cracks are longitudinal. On some aircraft, several cracks per support strut have been found. Inspection Service Bulletin A300-53-0395 inspects the struts for cracks. (2) Objective/Action This Service Bulletin installs reinforcing clamps on the strut ends as a temporary solution. A permanent solution is expected to be introduced by Service Bulletin at a later date. (3) Advantages By installing the clamp, the circumferential stresses in the rod-ends are reduced and the circular shape of the rod end is supported. As a result, the tendency to stress corrosion of the rod ends is stopped (or partially reduced) due to the lower circumferential stresses. Furthermore, the steel insert in the rod ends is properly kept in place due to maintaining the circular shape of the rod ends even in case of existing cracks.

E. COMPLIANCE (1) Classification MANDATORY: Service Bulletin must be accomplished. (2) Accomplishment Timescale This Service Bulletin must be accomplished, when applicable, immediately after the first inspection in accordance with the Inspection Service Bulletin A300-53-0395 requirement. This Service Bulletin has been classified Mandatory by the issue of an Airworthiness Directive (AD) published by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA). The AD must be used as the reference document for the mandated accomplishment timescale. F. APPROVAL The technical content of this document is approved under the authority of Design Organisation Approval No. EASA.21J.031. 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 and tools, drying times for paints, sealants, etc., and general administration work are also not included.

3. ACCOMPLISHMENT INSTRUCTIONS Task 530394-831-848-001 - Modification WARNING : MAKE SURE THAT YOU OBEY ALL THE WARNINGS AND ALL THE CAUTIONS INCLUDED IN THE REFERENCED PROCEDURES. CAUTION : ALWAYS OBEY THE PRECAUTIONS THAT FOLLOW TO KEEP ELECTRICAL WIRING IN A SATISFACTORY CONDITION (ELECTRICALLY AND MECHANICALLY SERVICEABLE). WHEN YOU DO MAINTENANCE WORK, REPAIRS OR MODIFICATIONS, ALWAYS KEEP ELECTRICAL WIRING, COMPONENTS AND THE WORK AREA AS CLEAN AS POSSIBLE. TO DO THIS: - PUT PROTECTION, SUCH AS PLASTIC SHEETING, CLOTHS, ETC; AS NECESSARY ON WIRING AND COMPONENTS. - REGULARLY REMOVE ALL SHAVINGS, UNWANTED MATERIAL AND OTHER CONTAMINATION. THESE PRECAUTIONS WILL DECREASE THE RISK OF CONTAMINATION AND DAMAGE TO THE ELECTRICAL WIRING INSTALLATION. IF THERE IS CONTAMINATION, REFER TO ESPM 20-55-00. NOTE: The accomplishment instructions of this Service Bulletin refer to procedures included in other AIRBUS documents. When the words ’refer to’ are used and the operator has an accepted alternative procedure, the accepted alternative procedure can be used. When the words ’in accordance with’ are included in the instruction, the procedure in the AIRBUS document must be used. NOTE: The access and close-up instructions, not comprising return to service tests, in this Service Bulletin do not constitute or affect the technical intent of the Service Bulletin. Operators can therefore, as deemed necessary, omit or add access and/or close-up steps to add flexibility to their maintenance operations as long as the technical intent of the Service Bulletin is met within the set parameters. NOTE: Manual titles given in the accomplishment instructions are referred to by acronyms. Refer to paragraph 1.J., References, for the definition of acronyms. NOTE: This Service Bulletin is classified mandatory or expected to be classified mandatory by an Airworthiness Directive (AD). The paragraphs 3.C. and 3.D. in these accomplishment instructions are Required for Compliance (RC) and must be done to comply with the AD. Other paragraphs are recommended and may be deviated from, done as part of other actions or done with accepted methods different from those given in the Service Bulletin, as long as the RC paragraphs can be done and the aircraft can be put back into a serviceable condition.
