### TITLE: FUSELAGE - TAIL CONE - THS SUPPORT STRUTS AT FR91 - INSPECTION FOR CRACKS **CONF ALL MODIFICATIONS None REASON/DESCRIPTION/OPERATIONAL CONSEQUENCES The Trimmable Horizontal Stabilizer (THS) is supported and articulated at Frame (FR)91. Any lateral movement is prevented by 4 diagonal support struts. During routine maintenance done on several aircraft in this area, support struts have been found cracked. The affected area is the strut end and typical cracks are longitudinal. On some aircraft several cracks per support strut have been found. The Airbus Technical Disposition, LR5350D12005293, has been released to do a sampling inspection on selected aircraft to confirm the issue. Further investigation has shown that there are two different suppliers of the struts which makes it possible to have a mixture of both struts installed on the aircraft. It is therefore necessary to do a check of the strut-end diameter to determine the correct inspection procedure. To prevent a support strut rupture, Airbus has decided to do a dedicated repeat inspection of the affected area on all A330 and A340 aircraft. After the inspection, depending on the supplier and result, it is necessary to install a clamping device to the strut end through the accomplishment of the modification Service Bulletin, A330-53-3204. The installation of the clamping device is temporary pending a permanent solution which will be introduced through a modification Service Bulletin at a later date. Airbus has issued an SBIT, Ref 13-0015 dated Apr 29/13 and an AMOC, Ref 10044559R01 dated Apr 23/13 to inform operators. The accomplishment of this Service Bulletin will detect potential damage at the support strut end and limit the risk of THS lateral movement.

MSN CONFIGURATION 1547 1548 1549 1550 1551 1552 1553 1554 1555 001 (5) Configuration definition **CONF 001 Config. 001 is valid for all the aircraft given in the effectivity of this Service Bulletin as a standard configuration. (6) Material Effectivity MATERIAL QTY PER A/C SEE NOTES Component COMPD01 As required Component COMPD02 As required Consumable CMLD01 1 B. CONCURRENT REQUIREMENTS None C. REASON (1) History The Trimmable Horizontal Stabilizer (THS) is supported and articulated at Frame (FR)91. Any lateral movement is prevented by 4 diagonal support struts. During routine maintenance done on several aircraft in this area, support struts have been found cracked. The affected area is the strut end and typical cracks are longitudinal. On some aircraft several cracks per support strut have been found. The Airbus Technical Disposition, LR5350D12005293, has been released to do a sampling inspection on selected aircraft to confirm the issue. Further investigation has shown that there are two different suppliers of the struts which makes it possible to have a mixture of both struts installed on the aircraft. It is therefore necessary to do a check of the strut-end diameter to determine the correct inspection procedure. (2) Objective/Action To prevent a support strut rupture, Airbus has decided to do a dedicated repeat inspection of the affected area on all A330 and A340 aircraft. After the inspection, depending on the supplier and result, it is necessary to install a clamping device to the strut end through the accomplishment of the modification Service Bulletin, A330-53-3204. The installation of the clamping device is temporary pending a permanent solution which will be introduced through a modification Service Bulletin at a later date. Airbus has issued an SBIT, Ref 13-0015 dated Apr 29/13 and an AMOC, Ref 10044559R01 dated Apr 23/13 to inform operators.

# @A330 SERVICE BULLETIN (3) Advantages The accomplishment of this Service Bulletin will detect potential damage at the support strut end and limit the risk of THS lateral movement. (4) Operational/Maintenance Consequences None D. DESCRIPTION To accomplish this Service Bulletin it is necessary to : Task 533206-832-848-001: Inspection of the THS support struts (1) Do a check of the Strut-End Diameter (2) Do a High Frequency Eddy Current Inspection of the support struts with an end dia equal to or more than 43mm (3) Do a High Frequency Eddy Current Inspection of the support struts with an end dia of less than 43mm (4) Remove the clamps from the THS support struts (5) Install the clamps on the THS support struts Task 533206-832-849-001: Inspection - ADDITIONAL WORK (1) Do a High Frequency Eddy Current Inspection of the support struts with an end dia of less than 43mm E. COMPLIANCE (1) Classification MANDATORY: Service Bulletin must be accomplished. (2) Accomplishment Timescale For the first batch of aircraft (MSN 0012 up to MSN 0209): - This Service Bulletin must be accomplished within 6 months from Service Bulletin original issue date. - Repetitive inspections are to be accomplished at intervals of 42 months or 20000 FH whichever occurs first from the last inspection date for TAC strut-end dia. equal or more than 43mm (1.69in.). For SARMA strut-end dia. less than 43mm (1.69in.) the repetitive inspections are to be accomplished at intervals of 12 months from the last inspection date or within 3 months after ISB revision 03 issue date, whatever occurs later and thereafter at intervals not to exceed 12 months since the last inspection, inspect in accordance with SB A330-53-3206.

# @A330 SERVICE BULLETIN For the second batch of aircraft (MSN 0211 up to MSN 0422): - This Service Bulletin must be accomplished within 24 months from Service Bulletin original issue date. - Repetitive inspections are to be accomplished at intervals of 42 months or 20000 FH whichever occurs first from the last inspection date for TAC strut-end dia. equal or more than 43mm (1.69in.). For SARMA strut-end dia. less than 43mm (1.69in.) the repetitive inspections are to be accomplished at intervals of 12 months from the last inspection date or within 3 months after ISB Revision 03 issue date, whatever occurs later and thereafter at intervals not to exceed 12 months since the last inspection, inspect in accordance with SB A330-53-3206. For the third batch of aircraft (MSN 0423 and subsequent): - This Service Bulletin must be accomplished within 36 months from Service Bulletin original issue date or from aircraft first flight whichever occurs later. - Repetitive inspections are to be accomplished at intervals of 42 months or 20000 FH whichever occurs first from the last inspection date for TAC strut-end dia. equal or more than 43mm (1.69in.). For SARMA strut-end dia. less than 43mm (1.69in.) the repetitive inspections are to be accomplished at intervals of 12 months from the last inspection date or within 3 months after ISB Revision 03 issue date, whatever occurs later and thereafter at intervals not to exceed 12 months since the last inspection, inspect in accordance with SB A330-53-3206. NOTE: Aircraft previously inspected by AIRBUS Technical Disposition LR5350D12005293 have to be considered as part of the third batch of aircraft. 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. NOTE: The elapsed time is calculated for only one of the possible HFEC inspections of all four struts taking into account the possible removal/installation of clamps. If clamps are not installed then the elapsed time is reduced accordingly.
