Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This instrument cancels a specific aircraft maintenance rule for Airbus A320 planes.

What it does:

Revokes (cancels) Airworthiness Directive AD/A320/135 Amdt 1 as of 1 March 2011
This removes a previously mandatory safety requirement that aircraft operators had to follow

Background: An Airworthiness Directive (AD) is a legally binding instruction issued by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) when a safety problem is found with an aircraft, engine, or component. ADs typically require operators to perform specific inspections, repairs, or modifications within set timeframes.

Why it matters: When CASA revokes an AD, it usually means the safety issue has been resolved (for example, through design changes), a newer directive has replaced the old one, or the original safety concern is no longer valid. Aircraft operators subject to this change no longer need to perform the specific maintenance tasks or inspections required by the cancelled directive.
