What to do

Affected stakeholders should contact the responsible military airworthiness authority in their country to obtain the applicable military AD for the Airbus A400M. They should monitor updates from their military authority and ensure compliance with any issued military ADs. No civil compliance deadlines are specified in this document.

Summary

The Pneumatic — Bleed Control Computer — Check document is an explanatory statement issued by EASA regarding the absence of an Airworthiness Directive (AD) for the Airbus A400M aircraft in civil service. It clarifies that no publicly available AD exists because the Airbus A400M is currently not operated in civil aviation. The document serves as an informational record for military authorities and design approval holders, recommending that military authorities issue their own applicable ADs.

What changed

This document introduces an informational advisory record instead of a formal AD due to the lack of Airbus A400M aircraft in civil service. It does not impose new regulatory requirements but provides guidance to military airworthiness authorities to develop their own ADs for the affected military aircraft.

Why it matters

This matters for aviation professionals because it clarifies the regulatory status of the Airbus A400M regarding bleed control computer checks and highlights that compliance requirements are governed by military authorities rather than civil aviation regulators. Operators, maintenance organizations, and compliance teams must coordinate with the relevant military authorities to ensure adherence to applicable airworthiness directives.
