  • Type:Proposed Rule
    Citation:90 FR 11236
    Reading Time:about 12 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is proposing a new airworthiness directive (AD) for Airbus SAS Model A350-941 and -1041 airplanes. This proposal arises from the discovery that certain items on the master minimum equipment list (MMEL) do not meet certification requirements. The proposed AD requires operators to update their minimum equipment list (MEL) in order to address an unsafe condition. Interested parties are invited to submit comments on this proposal by April 21, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA wants to make sure that certain Airbus planes are extra safe, so they are telling people who operate these planes to update a list of important things that need to work on the airplane. It's like making sure all parts of your favorite toy are working properly so it doesn't break.

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Airbus SAS Model A350-941 and -1041 airplanes. This action was prompted by concerns over certain retaining rings that can cause damage to airplane parts. The AD requires regular inspections of cargo door areas for any damage and offers an optional modification to terminate these inspections, aligning with the European Union Aviation Safety Agency's guidelines. The rule is effective from March 30, 2021, aiming to enhance the structural integrity and safety of these aircraft.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA made a new rule for some Airbus airplanes because a tiny part might break other parts of the plane, so they want people to check a certain door regularly and maybe fix it in a special way to keep everyone safe.

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) issued special conditions for the Airbus A350-941 airplane, which has been modified to include a Lower Lobe Crew Rest (LLCR) compartment by Aerocon Engineering. These special conditions are necessary because the existing safety regulations do not cover this novel design feature. The LLCR, located under the passenger cabin floor, will be used only during flight, and it must meet additional safety standards set by the FAA to ensure the crew's safety. This includes requirements for evacuation routes, communication systems, smoke detection, and fire safety equipment.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA made new airplane rules because Airbus made a special resting spot under the floor for crew members. These rules are to make sure everyone stays safe, like making sure there's a way to talk to people, see in the dark, and escape if needed.
