## Summary

The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Airbus SAS Model Airbus A350-941 and A350-1041 airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by a determination that the lower attachment studs on the aft galley complex may be installed incorrectly due to a missing instruction in the maintenance procedure task. This proposed AD would require a one-time inspection of the lower attachment studs on the aft galley complex, and depending on findings, accomplishment of applicable corrective actions, 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.
