(5) Model A340–541 airplanes. 

(6) Model A340–642 airplanes. 

(d) Subject 

Air Transport Association (ATA) of 

America Code 25, Equipment/furnishings. 

(e) Reason 

This AD was prompted by reports that, for 

certain lower deck mobile crew rest (LDMCR) 

units, the connection of a certain halon outlet 

tube to the outlet of a certain fire 

extinguisher bottle may be incorrect. The 

FAA is issuing this AD to address this 

condition, which, in case of a fire inside the 

LDMCR, could lead to disconnection of the 

tube, possibly resulting in reduced 

concentration of fire suppressing agent at any 

location inside the LDMCR. 

(f) Compliance 

Comply with this AD within the 

compliance times specified, unless already 

done. 

(g) Requirements 

Except as specified in paragraph (h) of this 

AD: Comply with all required actions and 

compliance times specified in, and in 

accordance with, EASA AD 2020–0255. 

(h) Exceptions to EASA AD 2020–0255 

(1) Where EASA AD 2020–0255 refers to its 

effective date, this AD requires using the 

effective date of this AD. 

(2) The ‘‘Remarks’’ section of EASA AD 

2020–0255 does not apply to this AD. 

(i) No Reporting Requirement 

Although the service information 

referenced in EASA AD 2020–0255 specifies 

to submit certain information to the 

manufacturer, this AD does not include that 

requirement. 

(j) Other FAA AD Provisions 

The following provisions also apply to this 

AD: 

(1) Alternative Methods of Compliance 

(AMOCs): The Manager, Large Aircraft 

Section, International Validation Branch, 

FAA, has the authority to approve AMOCs 

for this AD, if requested using the procedures 

found in 14 CFR 39.19. In accordance with 

14 CFR 39.19, send your request to your 

principal inspector or responsible Flight 

Standards Office, as appropriate. If sending

730–AMOC@faa.gov. Before using any 

approved AMOC, notify your appropriate 

principal inspector, or lacking a principal 

inspector, the manager of the responsible 

Flight Standards Office. 

(2) Contacting the Manufacturer: For any 

requirement in this AD to obtain instructions 

from a manufacturer, the instructions must 

be accomplished using a method approved 

by the Manager, Large Aircraft Section, 

International Validation Branch, FAA; or 

EASA; or Airbus SAS’s EASA Design 

Organization Approval (DOA). If approved by 

the DOA, the approval must include the 

DOA-authorized signature. 

(3) Required for Compliance (RC): Except 

as required by paragraph (j)(2) of this AD, if 

any service information contains procedures 

or tests that are identified as RC, those 

procedures and tests must be done to comply 

with this AD; any procedures or tests that are 

not identified as RC are recommended. Those 

procedures and tests that are not identified 

as RC may be deviated from using accepted 

methods in accordance with the operator’s 

maintenance or inspection program without 

obtaining approval of an AMOC, provided 

the procedures and tests identified as RC can 

be done and the airplane can be put back in 

an airworthy condition. Any substitutions or 

changes to procedures or tests identified as 

RC require approval of an AMOC.

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), Department of 

Transportation (DOT). 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding 

Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2019–03– 

10, which applied to all Airbus SAS 

Model A300 series airplanes; and Model 

A300 B4–600, B4–600R, and F4–600R 

series airplanes, and Model A300 C4– 

605R Variant F airplanes (collectively 

called Model A300–600 series 

airplanes). AD 2019–03–10 required 

repetitive detailed visual inspections of 

the main landing gear (MLG) leg 

components and replacement of the 

MLG leg if cracked components are 

found. This AD continues to require the 

actions required by AD 2019–03–10. For 

certain airplanes, this AD also requires 

modification of the MLG hinge arm by 

installing improved MLG hinge arm/ 

barrel pins; an out-of-roundness check 

of removed pins; repetitive inspections 

of any affected pins and the associated 

connecting rod bushes, and replacement 

of the MLG leg if cracked components 

are found; and installation of an 

improved spacer; as specified in a 

European Union Aviation Safety Agency 

(EASA) AD, which is incorporated by 

reference. This AD was prompted by 

reports of cracks in MLG leg 

components and a determination that 

additional actions (including 

inspections, modifications, and checks) 

are needed to address the unsafe 

condition. The FAA is issuing this AD 

to address the unsafe condition on these 

products. 

DATES: This AD is effective July 16, 

2021. 

The Director of the Federal Register 

approved the incorporation by reference 

of a certain publication listed in this AD 

as of July 16, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

EASA, which is the Technical Agent 

for the Member States of the European 

Union, has issued EASA AD 2020–0145, 

dated July 1, 2020 (EASA AD 2020– 

0145) (also referred to as the Mandatory 

Continuing Airworthiness Information, 

or the MCAI), to correct an unsafe 

condition for all Airbus SAS Model 

A300 series airplanes; Model A300–600 

series airplanes; and Model A300F4– 

608ST airplanes. EASA AD 2020–0145 

supersedes EASA AD 2018–0170, dated 

August 6, 2018 (which corresponds to 

FAA AD 2019–03–10, Amendment 39– 

19562 (84 FR 5595, February 22, 2019) 

(AD 2019–03–10)). Model A300F4– 

608ST airplanes are not certificated by 

the FAA and are not included on the 

U.S. type certificate data sheet; this AD 

therefore does not include those 

airplanes in the applicability. 

The FAA issued a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 

part 39 to supersede AD 2019–03–10. 

AD 2019–03–10 applied to all Airbus 

SAS Model A300 and A300–600 series 

airplanes. The NPRM published in the 

Federal Register on December 8, 2020 

(85 FR 78971). The NPRM was 

prompted by reports of cracks in MLG 

leg components, and a determination 

that additional actions (including 

inspections, modifications, and out-ofroundness checks) are needed to 

address the unsafe condition. The 

NPRM proposed to continue to require 

the actions required by AD 2019–03–10. 

For certain airplanes, this AD also 

requires modification of the MLG hinge 

arm by installing improved MLG hinge 

arm/barrel pins; an out-of-roundness 

check of removed pins; repetitive 

inspections of any affected pins and the 

associated connecting rod bushes, and 

replacement of the MLG leg if cracked 

components are found; and installation 

of an improved spacer; as specified in 

an EASA AD. 

The FAA is issuing this AD to address 

cracking of certain components in the 

MLG leg, which could result in an MLG 

collapse, and consequent damage to the 

airplane and injury to the airplane 

occupants. See the MCAI for additional 

background information. 

Comments 

The FAA gave the public the 

opportunity to participate in developing 

this final rule. The following presents 

the comments received on the NPRM 

and the FAA’s response to each 

comment. 

Support for the NPRM 

The Air Line Pilots Association, 

International (ALPA) and an anonymous 

commenter indicated support for the 

NPRM. 

Request To Clarify Inspection 

Threshold for Certain Airplanes 

United Parcel Service (UPS Airlines) 

asked that the proposed AD be revised 

to add a statement to clarify that the 

general visual inspection (GVI) for 

Group 2 airplanes begins within 30 

months after the effective date of the 

FAA AD. UPS Airlines stated that it has 

been accomplishing Airbus Service 

Bulletin A300–32–6120 at gear 

overhaul, which replaces the old hinge 

arm barrel pin with a new hinge arm 

barrel pin, prior to release of Airbus 

Service Bulletin A300–32–6121. UPS 

Airlines further pointed out that Airbus 

Service Bulletin A300–32–6121 was 

released after Airbus Service Bulletin 

A300–32–6120 (pin replacement), and 

added installation of a new spacer 

during gear overhaul. UPS Airlines 

added that EASA AD 2020–0145 does 

not have clear instructions for the initial 

inspection start date for airplanes with 

modifications accomplished using 

Airbus Service Bulletin A300–32–6120 

that have not accomplished Airbus 

Service Bulletin A300–32–6121. 

Further, UPS Airlines asserted that this 

request is in line with the 30-month pin 

replacement threshold for airplanes 

equipped with the older pin. Airplanes 

with the newer pins installed in the past 

three years without the spacer 

installation, UPS Airlines also asserted, 

are less prone to any safety or 

operational concerns than those with 

the older pins. 

The FAA does not agree with the 

commenter’s request. In developing an 

appropriate compliance time for this 

AD, the FAA considered the urgency 

associated with the subject unsafe 

condition as well as the 

recommendations of the manufacturer. 

The compliance time for the initial GVI 

for Group 2 airplanes is ‘‘Within 30 

months after pin replacement,’’ as 

specified in EASA AD 2020–0145. 

Airbus Service Bulletin A300–32–6120, 

which provides instructions for pin 

replacement, was issued September 24, 

2019. Therefore, the earliest possible 

compliance time for the inspection 

would be 30 months from September 24, 

2019. The FAA has not changed this AD 

in this regard. 

Conclusion 

The FAA reviewed the relevant data, 

considered the comments received, and 

determined that air safety and the 

public interest require adopting this 

final rule as proposed, except for minor 

editorial changes. The FAA has 

determined that these minor changes: 

• Are consistent with the intent that 

was proposed in the NPRM for 

addressing the unsafe condition; and 

• Do not add any additional burden 

upon the public than was already 

proposed in the NPRM. 

Related Service Information Under 1 

CFR Part 51 

EASA AD 2020–0145 describes 

procedures for repetitive detailed visual 

inspections of the MLG leg components 

and replacement of the MLG leg if 

cracked components are found. EASA 

AD 2020–0145 also describes 

procedures, for certain airplanes, for 

modification of the MLG hinge arm by 

installing improved pins, which would 

terminate the repetitive detailed 

inspections required by AD 2019–03– 

10; an out-of-roundness check of 

removed pins; repetitive inspections of 

affected pins and the associated 

connecting rod bushes for cracking, and 

replacement of the MLG leg if cracked

components are found; and installation 

of an improved spacer, which would 

terminate the repetitive pin and rod 

bushes inspections. EASA AD 2020– 

0145 also describes procedures for 

reporting results of the out-of-roundness 

check to Safran. 

Safran Landing Systems has issued 

Safran Service Bulletin 470–32–840, 

dated December 3, 2019. This service 

information describes procedures for 

inspecting the hinge arm pins of the 

MLG barrel to detect local out-ofroundness.

because the interested parties have 

access to it through their normal course 

of business or by the means identified 

in the ADDRESSES section. 

Costs of Compliance 

The FAA estimates that this AD 

affects 128 airplanes of U.S. registry. 

The FAA estimates the following costs 

to comply with this AD: 

ESTIMATED COSTS FOR REQUIRED ACTIONS * 

Action Labor cost Parts cost Cost per product Cost on U.S. operators 

Retained actions from 

AD 2019–03–10.

1 work-hour × $85 per hour = $85, per inspection cycle.$0 $85, per inspection 

cycle.

$10,880, per inspection 

cycle. 

New modifications ......... 180 work-hours × $85 per hour = $15,300 ........ 17,993 33,293 .......................... 4,261,504. 

New inspection .............. 1 work-hour × $85 per hour = $85 ..................... 0 85 ................................. 10,880. 

New out-of-roundness 

check.

4 work-hours × $85 per hour = $340 ................. 0 340 ............................... 43,520. 

* Table does not include estimated costs for reporting. 

The FAA estimates that it would take 

about 1 work-hour per product to 

comply with the reporting requirement 

in this AD. The average labor rate is $85 

per hour. Based on these figures, the 

FAA estimates the cost of reporting the 

inspection results on U.S. operators to 

be $85, or $85 per product. 

ESTIMATED COSTS OF ON-CONDITION ACTIONS

Labor cost Parts cost Cost per product 

20 work-hours × $85 per hour = $1,700 per MLG ............................................... $3,400,000 per MLG ............................. $3,401,700 per MLG. 

Paperwork Reduction Act 

A federal agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, and a person is not required to 

respond to, nor shall a person be subject 

to penalty for failure to comply with a 

collection of information subject to the 

requirements of the Paperwork 

Reduction Act unless that collection of 

information displays a current valid 

OMB control number. The control 

number for the collection of information 

required by this AD is 2120–0056. The 

paperwork cost associated with this AD 

has been detailed in the Costs of 

Compliance section of this document 

and includes time for reviewing 

instructions, as well as completing and 

reviewing the collection of information. 

Therefore, all reporting associated with 

this AD is mandatory. Comments 

concerning the accuracy of this burden 

and suggestions for reducing the burden 

should be directed to the Information 

Collection Clearance Officer, Federal 

Aviation Administration, 10101 

Hillwood Parkway, Fort Worth, TX 

76177–1524. 

Authority for This Rulemaking 

Title 49 of the United States Code 

specifies the FAA’s authority to issue 

rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, 

section 106, describes the authority of 

the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII: 

Aviation Programs, describes in more 

detail the scope of the Agency’s 

authority. 

The FAA is issuing this rulemaking 

under the authority described in 

Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 

44701: General requirements. Under 

that section, Congress charges the FAA 

with promoting safe flight of civil 

aircraft in air commerce by prescribing 

regulations for practices, methods, and 

procedures the Administrator finds 

necessary for safety in air commerce. 

This regulation is within the scope of 

that authority because it addresses an 

unsafe condition that is likely to exist or 

develop on products identified in this 

rulemaking action. 

Regulatory Findings 

This AD will not have federalism 

implications under Executive Order 

13132. This AD will not have a 

substantial direct effect on the States, on 

the relationship between the national 

government and the States, or on the 

distribution of power and 

responsibilities among the various 

levels of government. 

For the reasons discussed above, I 

certify that this AD: 

(1) Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory 

action’’ under Executive Order 12866, 

(2) Will not affect intrastate aviation 

in Alaska, and 

(3) Will not have a significant 

economic impact, positive or negative, 

on a substantial number of small entities

DOA-authorized signature. 

(3) Required for Compliance (RC): Except 

as required by paragraph (i)(2) of this AD, if 

any service information referenced in EASA 

AD 2020–0145 that contains RC procedures 

or tests that are identified as RC, those 

procedures and tests must be done to comply 

with this AD; any procedures or tests that are 

not identified as RC are recommended. Those 

procedures and tests that are not identified 

as RC may be deviated from using accepted 

methods in accordance with the operator’s 

maintenance or inspection program without 

obtaining approval of an AMOC, provided 

the procedures and tests identified as RC can 

be done and the airplane can be put back in 

an airworthy condition. Any substitutions or 

changes to procedures or tests identified as 

RC require approval of an AMOC.
