Summary
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Airbus Helicopters Model AS332L, AS 332L1, AS 332L2, and EC 225LP helicopters. This AD was prompted by a report of a corroded emergency sea anchor pin. This AD requires inspecting the emergency sea anchor and, depending on the result, replacing the emergency sea anchor. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
