## Summary

The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2023-12-03 and AD 2023-04-05, which apply to certain Airbus SAS Model A350-941 and -1041 airplanes. AD 2023-12-03 and AD 2023-04-05 require revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations. Since the FAA issued AD 2023-12-03 and AD 2023-04-05, the FAA has determined that new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations are necessary. This proposed AD would continue to require all actions in AD 2023-12-03 and certain actions in AD 2023-04-05 and would require revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is proposed for incorporation by reference (IBR). The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
