AD FAA-2013-1072

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Airplanes

Summary

We are superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2012-03-04 for certain Airbus Model A310 series airplanes. AD 2012-03-04 required for certain airplanes, modifying the wire routing and installing additional protective sleeves. This new AD continues to require the actions in AD 2012-03-04, and requires additional work for certain airplanes. This AD was prompted by reports of new interferences of newly routed wire bundle 2S. We are issuing this AD to prevent short circuits leading to arcing, and possible fuel tank explosion.
