    Reading Time:about 14 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is proposing a new rule related to airworthiness directives for certain Airbus SAS Model A350-941 and -1041 airplanes. This proposal, influenced by the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), aims to incorporate more stringent maintenance requirements to prevent unsafe conditions, specifically the risk of fuel tank explosions. The FAA invites public comments on this proposal by April 7, 2025, to ensure that all relevant feedback is considered before finalizing the rule. The changes are expected to affect 33 airplanes in the U.S., with estimated compliance costs related to revising the maintenance programs.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA wants to make sure some Airbus planes are extra safe, so they're asking people to follow new, stricter rules for checking the planes. They also want to hear what everyone thinks about these new rules by April 7, 2025.

  • 2024-28759 — Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS Airplanes
    Type:Proposed Rule
    Citation:89 FR 97562
    Reading Time:about 12 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has proposed a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Airbus SAS Model A330 series airplanes. This proposal comes after reports of contamination in the pressure switch of engine pylon fire detectors, which could compromise their effectiveness and lead to undetected fires. The directive requires replacing the contaminated parts and prohibits the installation of affected ones, aligning with a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) directive. Comments on this proposal must be submitted by January 23, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA wants to make some airplanes safer by replacing a part that helps detect fires because it might not work right. They also don’t want these faulty parts to be put back into airplanes again.
