This AD is issued in accordance with E U 748/2012

, Part 21

. A.3B. In accordance with EU 1321/2014 Annex I, Part M.A.301, the continuing airworthiness of an aircraft shall be ensured by accomplishing any applicable ADs. Consequently, no person may ope rate an aircraft to which an AD applies, except in accorda nce with the requirements of that AD

### ATA 05 Time Limits and Maintenance Checks

– Certification Maintenance

Requirements

– ALS Part 3

– Amendment

Manufacturer(s): Airbus (formerly Airbus Industrie)

Applicability: Airbus A310 and A300

- 600 aeroplanes, all certified models, all manufacturer serial numbers (MSN), and

Airbus A300F4

- 608ST aeroplanes, all MSN.

Reason: The airworthiness limitations for Airbus aeroplanes are currently published in Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS) documents. The airworthiness limitations applicable to the A300

- 600 and A300

- 600ST Certification Maintenance Requirements (CMR) were previously specified in the Airbus A300

- 600 CMR document referenced AI/ST5/829/85. DGAC France issued AD F

- 2005

- 123 (EASA approval 2005

- 6070) to require compliance to the requirements as specified in this document. Since that AD was issued, the CMR tasks are now specified in Airbus A300

- 600 and Airbus A310 ALS Part 3 documents , which are approved by the European Aviation Safety Agency ( EASA )

. Th ese document s introduce more restrictive maintenance requirements and/or airworthiness limitations. Failure to comply with the maintenan ce requirements contained in the s e document s could result in an unsafe condition. For the reasons described above, this new AD retains the requirements of DGAC France AD F

- 2005

- 123, which is superseded, and requires the implementation of the new or more restrictive maintenance requirements as specified in Airbus A31 0 ALS Part 3 Revision 00 and A300

- 600 ALS Part 3 Revision 0 0 , as applicable to the aeroplane type/ model.E ASA AD No.: 2013
