    AD related to Components

    What are we talking about ?


    Definition: ‘component’ means any engine,
    propeller, part or appliance.
    Component has its own design approval or not
    Type Certificate (ex.: engine or propeller)
    European Technical Standard Order (ex.: restraint system
    or APU)
    No approval but EASA Form 1 (ex.: high pressure manifold
    check valve)
    No approval with no EASA Form 1 (Standard parts)

    02-03/12/2014 EASA AD Reading Workshop 4


    AD related to Components

    The component has a design approval

    The component has a design approval holder.

    When there is an unsafe condition related to this


    component, an AD is published addressing directly
    the component itself.

    Ex.: EASA PAD 14-160 (Torso restraint system)

    02-03/12/2014 EASA AD Reading Workshop 5


    AD related to Components

    The component has no design approval

    The component has no design approval holder.


    When there is an unsafe condition related to this
    component, an AD is published applicable to the
    type design(s) (aircraft or engine) on which the
    component is known to be installed.

    Ex.: EASA AD 2014-0251 for A320 aeroplanes (Brake


    Dual Distribution Valve)

    AD related to Components

    How to find these ADs in the AD Publishing


    Tool?

    If component has a design approval holder


    By filtering using the current design approval holder
    No possibility to filter all « Equipment ADs »
    Improvements to the system are being developed
    Ex. in AD Publishing tool: ROMTEX ANJOU
    AERONAUTIQUE (EASA PAD 14-160)

    AD related to Components

    How to find these ADs in the AD Publishing


    Tool?
    If component has no design approval holder
    By inserting the affected Part Number (P/N) in the
    “Keyword” field
    Be careful, only possible if the P/N is part of the text of
    the AD
    Sometimes the P/N is only specified by reference in the
    applicable Service Bulletin
    Ex. in AD Publishing tool: Brake Dual Distribution
    Valve (BDDV) P/N A25434006-3 (AD 2014-0251)

    Specifics of an AD related to components


    The AD requires accomplishment of actions if the
    affected part is installed:
    Inspection and, depending on findings, corrective actions
    Modification (removal of the affected part)

    The AD may also have paragraphs which give some


    conditions for installing the part

    Specifics of an AD related to components


    What are these specific conditions for installing the
    part ?
    From the effective date, the part cannot be installed.
    After modification of an aeroplane, the part cannot be
    installed.
    From the effective date, the part can be installed but
    needs to pass an inspection upon, or prior to, installation.

    Make sure that these conditions are considered


    (recorded?)

    Ex.: EASA AD 2014-0228 (cargo door to be inspected
    prior to installation on an aeroplane - A330 & A340
    aeroplanes)
    Ex.: EASA AD 2014-0251 (BBDV – Modification –
    A320 aeroplane)
    Ex.: EASA AD 2014-0258 (CFM56-5 engine / wrong
    torque – A320 aeroplane)

    AD related to Components

    In general:
    Installation of part on an aircraft
    The installation needs to be approved
    The part needs an EASA Form 1 (or equivalent)
    Use of the Illustrated Parts Catalogue (IPC) or
    Component Maintenance Manual (CMM)
    It is not directly approved by EASA, only indirectly
    approved under DOA priviligies

    Be careful when installing a part using EASA Form 1


    and/or IPC/CMM, as maybe not updated

    Part M – AD / Components
    Prior to installation of a part on an aircraft, it must
    be ensured that it is eligible to be fitted when AD
    may be applicable to this part (M.A. 501 –
    Installation)
    Components are unserviceable when not compliant
    with a component AD (M.A. 504 – Control of
    unserviceable components)
    At aircraft level: an AD may be published to require
    actions on a component

    Part M - Responsibilities
    Owner / Operator is responsible for the continuing
    airworthiness of the aircraft
    The aircraft continuing airworthiness shall be
