Summary
EASA Airworthiness Directive 2023-0092 is an airworthiness directive issued by the European Union Aviation Safety Agency affecting all certified models and serial numbers of Airbus A310 aeroplanes. It mandates compliance with updated airworthiness limitation tasks specified in the Airbus A310 Airworthiness Limitations Section Part 2 Damage Tolerant Airworthiness Limitation Items Revision 03, Variation 3.7. This directive ensures continued airworthiness by requiring operators to follow new and more restrictive maintenance tasks.
What changed

These tasks update and override previous instructions for certain maintenance actions. The directive does not supersede earlier ADs but requires incorporation of these updated tasks into the Aircraft Maintenance Programme.
Why it matters
This directive is critical for aviation professionals as it mandates updated maintenance requirements to prevent unsafe conditions on Airbus A310 aircraft. Operators and maintenance organizations must ensure compliance to maintain aircraft airworthiness and regulatory approval.
