    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued an airworthiness directive (AD) for specific Airbus SAS Model A330 airplanes due to issues with data synchronization between radio management panels and the audio management unit. This AD mandates updates to the airplane flight manual and the minimum equipment list to tackle these problems, which, if uncorrected, could lead to the loss of radio communication. The directive is effective as of May 15, 2025, and the FAA is seeking public comments by June 16, 2025. Immediate compliance is necessary due to the potential detrimental effects on flight safety.
