AGENCY:

Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of Transportation (DOT).

ACTION:

Final rule; correction.

SUMMARY:

The FAA is correcting a typographical error in an existing airworthiness directive (AD) that was published in the Federal Register on May 12, 2006. The error resulted in an incorrect component maintenance manual number. This AD applies to certain Airbus Model A319-100, A320-200, A321-100, and A321-200 series airplanes. This AD requires repetitive inspections for corrosion in the inside and outside lower walls of each type A, D, E, and F lavatory wall that has at least one wall-mounted cabin attendant seat, and related investigative and corrective actions if necessary.

DATES:

This correction is effective June 3, 2010. The effective date of AD 2006-09-11 remains June 16, 2006.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

On April 26, 2006, the FAA issued AD 2006-09-11, Amendment 39-14582 (71 FR 27595, May 12, 2006), for certain Airbus Model A319-100, A320-200, A321-100, and A321-200 series airplanes. The AD requires repetitive inspections for corrosion in the inside and outside lower walls of each type A, D, E, and F lavatory wall that has at least one wall-mounted cabin attendant seat, and related investigative and corrective actions if necessary.

As published, paragraphs (h)(1)(iii) and (h)(2)(ii) of the AD specifies in error Airbus Component Maintenance Manual Lavatory E 25-41-52. Airbus Component Maintenance Manual Lavatory E 25-41-52 does not exist. The correct Airbus Component Maintenance Manual Lavatory E is 25-43-52.

No other part of the regulatory information has been changed; therefore, the final rule is not republished in the Federal Register.

The effective date of this AD remains June 16, 2006.
