[[Page 17750]]

SUMMARY: The FAA is correcting an airworthiness directive (AD) that 
published in the Federal Register. That AD applies to all Airbus Model 
A330-243, -243F, -341, -342, and -343 airplanes. As published, the AD 
number specified in the preamble and regulatory text is incorrect. This 
document corrects that error. In all other respects, the original 
document remains the same.

DATES: This correction is effective April 17, 2017.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by 
reference of a certain publication listed in this AD as of April 17, 
2017 (82 FR 15985, March 31, 2017).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As published, Airworthiness Directive 2017-
07-05, Amendment 39-18841 (82 FR 15985, March 31, 2017), requires an 
inspection to determine if affected hydraulic pressure tube assemblies 
are installed, and replacement with serviceable hydraulic pressure tube 
assemblies if necessary, for all Airbus Model A330-243, -243F, -341, -
342, and -343 airplanes. That AD also requires repetitive replacements 
of serviceable hydraulic pressure tube assemblies.

Need for the Correction

    As published, the AD number specified in the preamble and 
regulatory text is incorrect. The incorrectly specified number was AD 
2017-07-05, which is assigned to another AD; the correct number is AD 
2017-07-03.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Airbus has issued Alert Operators Transmission (AOT) A71L012-16, 
Revision 01, dated February 24, 2017. The service information describes 
procedures for replacing hydraulic pressure tube assembly, part number 
(P/N) AE711121-18, and hydraulic pressure tube assembly, P/N AE711121-
18 Rev A. This service information is reasonably available because the 
interested parties have access to it through their normal course of 
business or by the means identified in the ADDRESSES section.

Correction of Publication

    This document corrects an error and correctly adds the AD as an 
amendment to 14 CFR 39.13. Although no other part of the preamble or 
regulatory information has been corrected, we are publishing the entire 
rule in the Federal Register.
    The effective date of this AD remains April 17, 2017.
    Since this action only corrects an AD number, it has no adverse 
economic impact and imposes no additional burden on any person. 
Therefore, we have determined that notice and public procedures are 
unnecessary.

reference, Safety.

Adoption of the Correction

    Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me by the 
Administrator, the Federal Aviation Administration amends part 39 of 
the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 39) as follows:

PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES

0
1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows:

    Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701.


Sec.  39.13  [Corrected]

0
2. The FAA amends Sec.  39.13 by adding the following new airworthiness 
directive (AD):

2017-07-03 Airbus: Amendment 39-18841; Docket No. FAA-2017-0245; 
Directorate Identifier 2017-NM-023-AD.

(a) Effective Date

    This AD is effective April 17, 2017.

(b) Affected ADs

    None.

(c) Applicability

    This AD applies to Airbus Model A330-243, -243F, -341, -342, and 
-343 airplanes, certificated in any category, all manufacturer 
serial numbers.

(d) Subject

    Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code 71, Powerplant.

(e) Reason

    This AD was prompted by a determination that cracks can develop 
on the ripple damper of the hydraulic pressure tube assembly, which 
could lead to hydraulic leakage and consequent loss of the green 
hydraulic system. This AD was also prompted by reports of failure of 
the ripple damper of the hydraulic pressure tube assembly. We are 
issuing this AD to prevent cracking and failure of the ripple damper 
of the hydraulic pressure tube assembly, which could, in combination 
with other system failures, result in reduced control of the 
airplane.

(f) Compliance

    Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, 
unless already done.

(g) Definition of Affected Part

    For the purpose of this AD, a hydraulic pressure tube assembly, 
part number (P/N) AE711121-18, as introduced by Airbus mod 205242, 
is hereafter referred to as an ``affected part'' in this AD.

(h) Definition of Serviceable Part

    For the purpose of this AD, a ``serviceable part'' is a 
hydraulic pressure tube assembly (which has a double-welded ripple 
damper installed), P/N AE711121-18 Rev A, that has accumulated fewer 
than 800 total flight cycles since first installation on an 
airplane. The hydraulic pressure tube assembly, P/N AE711121-18 Rev 
A, is introduced by Airbus mod 206979 on the production line.

(i) Identification of Affected Parts

    Within 15 days after April 17, 2017 (the effective date of this 
AD), inspect to determine the part number of the hydraulic pressure 
tube assembly that is installed on each engine. A review of airplane 
maintenance records is acceptable in lieu of this inspection if the 
part number of the hydraulic pressure tube assembly can be 
conclusively determined from that review.

(j) Replacement of Affected Parts

    Within the compliance time specified in table 1 to paragraph (j) 
of this AD, as

[[Page 17751]]

applicable, or within 4 months after April 17, 2017 (the effective 
date of this AD), whichever occurs first, replace each affected part 
(see paragraph (g) of this AD) with a serviceable part (see 
paragraph (h) of this AD), in accordance with the instructions of 
Airbus Alert Operators Transmission (AOT) A71L012-16, Revision 01, 
dated February 24, 2017.

    Table 1 to Paragraph (j) of This AD--Replacement Compliance Times
------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Flight cycles accumulated *                Compliance time
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fewer than 775 total flight cycles.....  Before exceeding 800 total

                                          hydraulic pressure tube
                                          assembly since first
                                          installation on an airplane.
775 total flight cycles or more........  Within 25 flight cycles after
                                          April 17, 2017 (the effective
                                          date of this AD).
An unknown number of flight cycles       Within 25 flight cycles after
 accumulated.                             April 17, 2017 (the effective
                                          date of this AD).
------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Unless specified otherwise, the flight cycles in the ``flight cycles
  accumulated'' column of table 1 to paragraph (j) of this AD are those
  accumulated by an affected hydraulic pressure tube assembly, on April
  17, 2017 (the effective date of this AD), since first installation on
  an airplane.

(k) Repetitive Replacement of Serviceable Parts--Life Limit

    Before a serviceable part (see paragraph (h) of this AD) exceeds 
800 total flight cycles since first installation on an airplane, 
replace it with a serviceable part, in accordance with the 
instructions of Airbus AOT A71L012-16, Revision 01, dated February 
24, 2017.

(l) Engine Installation Limitation

    As of April 17, 2017 (the effective date of this AD), except as 
required by paragraph (m) of this AD, it is allowed to install on 
any airplane a replacement engine having an affected part (see 
paragraph (g) of this AD) installed, provided that, before that 
affected part exceeds 800 total flight cycles since first 
installation on an airplane, or within 4 months after April 17, 2017 
(the effective date of this AD), whichever occurs first, the part is 
replaced with a serviceable part (see paragraph (h) of this AD), in 
accordance with the instructions of Airbus AOT A71L012-16, Revision 
01, dated February 24, 2017.

(m) Parts and Engine Installation Prohibition

    As of 4 months after April 17, 2017 (the effective date of this 
AD): Do not install on any airplane an affected part (see paragraph 
(g) of this AD), or an engine having an affected part installed.

(n) Credit for Previous Actions

    This paragraph provides credit for actions required by paragraph 
(j) of this AD, if those actions were performed before April 17, 
2017 (the effective date of this AD) using Airbus AOT A71L012-16, 
dated December 22, 2016.
