Reading Time:about 14 minutes
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is proposing a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Airbus A350-941 and -1041 airplanes. This proposal is driven by the need for updated airworthiness limitations to ensure airplane safety. Affected operators would need to update their maintenance or inspection programs accordingly within a specified time. The proposed changes aim to maintain the structural integrity of these airplanes and include a call for feedback from the public by April 12, 2021.
Simple Explanation
The FAA wants to set new safety rules for some Airbus airplanes to keep them safe, so they’re asking airplane companies to do extra checks and fix-ups. People can tell the FAA what they think about these new rules until April 12, 2021.
