NOTE
: As per EASA IR 21, a minor change is one that has no appreciable effect on the
mass, balance, structural strength, reliability, operational characteristics affecting the
airworthiness of the product. All other changes are major changes.
REASON/DESCRIPTION/OPERATIONAL CONSEQUENCES
When there are significant differences between all airspeed sources, the flight controls revert to
alternate law, the autopilot (AP) and the autothrust (A/THR) automatically disconnect, and the Flight
Directors (FD) bars are automatically removed. It has been identified that, after such an event, if two
airspeed sources become similar while still erroneous, the flight guidance computers:
- Display FD bars again,
- Enable autopilot and auto thrust re-engagement.
To address this aircraft behaviour, operational recommendations were issued beginning of January
2011 in red OEB 35 (formely OEB 95/1 up until 2011) and its associated OEB PROC 35 (formely OEB
95/1 up until 2011) in the Quick Reference Handbook (QRH).
New software standard L21A on FCPC 2K2 hardware has been defined to take into account the last
FCPC software evolution:
- Autopilot inhibition under unreliable airspeed condition.
- Correction of the spurious Electronic Centralized Aircraft Monitoring (ECAM) warning "F/CTL RUD
X SERVO FAULT" at engine start or engine shut down (TFU 27.24.00.009),

SERVICE BULLETIN
SUMMARY
- Reduction of high Vertical Speed (VZ) at touchdown with new parameters recording in the Digital
Flight Data Recorder (DFDR) (A340-300 only),
- Improvement of aircraft behaviour in case of erratic Air Data/Inertial Reference Unit (ADIRU)
outputs,
- Improvement of the reconfiguration logics in case of electrical transients during rotation at take off
(TFU 27.90.00.035),
- Improvement of the Ground Spoiler and Partial Lift Damping (GS and PLD) logics,
- Maximum operating speed/ Maximum Operating Mach (VMO/MMO) and Autopilot (AP) disconnect
logic (A340-300 only),
- Improvement of aircraft behaviour in case of two consistently erroneous Angle Of Attack (AOA)
information: limitation of Trimmable Horizontal Stabilizer (THS) at pitchup.
This Service Bulletin is published to advise all operators of A340 aircraft of the issue of Vendor AIRBUS
OPERATIONS S.A.S. Service Bulletin No. LA2K2-27-012
 .
This Service Bulletin recommends either replacing the existing FCPCs with hardware 2K2 by FCPCs
with hardware 2K2 and new standard L21A, or modifying the existing FCPCs with hardware 2K2 into
new standard L21A by means of On-Board Replaceable Modules (OBRMs) as per Vendor AIRBUS
OPERATIONS S.A.S. Service Bulletin No. LA2K2-27-012
 .
Accomplishment of this Service Bulletin allow the possibility for aircraft on which standard L20 2K0 or
L20 2K1 are installed to upgrade to L21A2K2 standard as per replacement by Aircraft Maintenance
Manual (AMM).
New Flight Control Primary Computer (FCPC) standards have been developed in order to inhibit
autopilot engagement under unreliable airspeed condition in the here above situation described in FOT
Ref. 999.0112/10 dated on 20 December 2010.
Accomplishment of this Service Bulletin will cancel the red OEB 35 (formely OEB 95/1 up until 2011)
and therefore also the Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) TR 150 according to the Airworthiness Directive
No. 2010-0271.
Accomplishment of this Service Bulletin will also cancel the OEB 40 (formely OEB 88/4 up until 2011)
and Flight Manual (FM) 4.02.00/ 54 mandated by EASA Airworthiness Directive No. 2009-0012E.

C. REASON
(1) History
When there are significant differences between all airspeed sources, the flight controls
revert to alternate law, the autopilot (AP) and the autothrust (A/THR) automatically
disconnect, and the Flight Directors (FD) bars are automatically removed. It has been
identified that, after such an event, if two airspeed sources become similar while still
erroneous, the flight guidance computers:
- Display FD bars again,

SERVICE BULLETIN
- Enable autopilot and auto thrust re-engagement.
To address this aircraft behaviour, operational recommendations were issued beginning
of January 2011 in red OEB 35 (formely OEB 95/1 up until 2011) and its associated
OEB PROC 35 (formely OEB 95/1 up until 2011) in the Quick Reference Handbook
(QRH).
New software standard L21A on FCPC 2K2 hardware has been defined to take into
account the last FCPC software evolution:
- Autopilot inhibition under unreliable airspeed condition.
- Correction of the spurious Electronic Centralized Aircraft Monitoring (ECAM) warning
"F/CTL RUD X SERVO FAULT" at engine start or engine shut down (TFU
27.24.00.009),
- Reduction of high Vertical Speed (VZ) at touchdown with new parameters recording
in the Digital Flight Data Recorder (DFDR) (A340-300 only),
- Improvement of aircraft behaviour in case of erratic Air Data/Inertial Reference Unit
(ADIRU) outputs,
- Improvement of the reconfiguration logics in case of electrical transients during
rotation at take off (TFU 27.90.00.035),
- Improvement of the Ground Spoiler and Partial Lift Damping (GS and PLD) logics,
- Maximum operating speed/ Maximum Operating Mach (VMO/MMO) and Autopilot
(AP) disconnect logic (A340-300 only),
- Improvement of aircraft behaviour in case of two consistently erroneous Angle Of
Attack (AOA) information: limitation of Trimmable Horizontal Stabilizer (THS) at
pitchup.
(2) Objective/Action
This Service Bulletin is published to advise all operators of A340 aircraft of the issue of
Vendor AIRBUS OPERATIONS S.A.S. Service Bulletin No. LA2K2-27-012
 .
This Service Bulletin recommends either replacing the existing FCPCs with hardware
2K2 by FCPCs with hardware 2K2 and new standard L21A, or modifying the existing
FCPCs with hardware 2K2 into new standard L21A by means of On-Board Replaceable
Modules (OBRMs) as per Vendor AIRBUS OPERATIONS S.A.S. Service Bulletin No.
LA2K2-27-012
.
Accomplishment of this Service Bulletin allow the possibility for aircraft on which
standard L20 2K0 or L20 2K1 are installed to upgrade to L21A2K2 standard as per
replacement by Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM).
(3) Advantages
New Flight Control Primary Computer (FCPC) standards have been developed in order
to inhibit autopilot engagement under unreliable airspeed condition in the here above
situation described in FOT Ref. 999.0112/10 dated on 20 December 2010.

(4) Operational/Maintenance Consequences
Accomplishment of this Service Bulletin will cancel the red OEB 35 (formely OEB 95/1
up until 2011) and therefore also the Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) TR 150 according to
the Airworthiness Directive No. 2010-0271.
Accomplishment of this Service Bulletin will also cancel the OEB 40 (formely OEB 88/4
up until 2011) and Flight Manual (FM) 4.02. 00/54 mandated by EASA Airworthiness
Directive No. 2009-0012E.
D. DESCRIPTION
NOTE
: To accomplish the Config. 001 of this Service Bulletin, two possibilities are
available:
- Either modify the three FCPCs by replacement or reprogramming of
their OBRMs as described in TASK 274162-831-801 001 Modification
of the three FCPCs by Replacement or Reprograming of their OBRMs
as per Vendor AIRBUS OPERATIONS S.A.S. Service Bulletin No.
LA2K2-27-012.
 .
- Or you replace them as described in TASK 274162-831-802 001
Modification by replacement of the three FCPCs as per AMM.
 .
To accomplish this Service Bulletin it is necessary to :

E. COMPLIANCE
(1) Classification
MANDATORY: Service Bulletin must be accomplished.
(2) Accomplishment Timescale
This Service Bulletin has been classified Mandatory by the issue of an Airworthiness
Directive (AD) published by the European Av iation Safety Agenc y (EASA). The AD must
be used as the reference document for the mandated accomplishment timescale.
F. APPROVAL
The technical content of this document is approved under the authority of Design
Organisation Approval No. EASA.21J.031.
If an aircraft listed in the effectivity has a modification or repair embodied that is not of
AIRBUS origin, and which affects the content of this Service Bulletin, the operator is
responsible for obtaining approval by its airworthiness authority for any adaptation necessary
before incorporation of the Service Bulletin.
G. MANPOWER
The manpower estimates given in this Service Bulletin are based on the direct labor cost to
do the work. These estimates assume that the work will be done by experienced personnel,
and may need to be revised upwards to suit operator’s circumstances. The estimates do not
include the time to prepare, plan or inspect the work. Manufacture and procurement of parts
and tools, drying times for paints, sealants, etc., and general administration work are also not
included.
