EASA Airworthiness Directive 2024-0231 is an airworthiness directive applicable to Airbus A318, A319, A320, and A321 aeroplanes. It mandates repetitive detailed inspections of the cargo bulkhead frame 24A vertical members and female fittings located behind the 80VU rack to detect elongation and potential damage. The directive aims to prevent possible system failures caused by affected parts hitting the 80VU rack, which could lead to reduced control of the aircraft.
