GEAR (MLG) WHEEL AXLES **CONF ALL
MODIFICATIONS None
REASON/DESCRIPTION/OPERATIONAL CONSEQUENCES It has been found that a specific repair on certain Main Landing Gear (MLG) wheel axles have been incorrectly performed at Maintenance Repair Organisations (MRO’s). Investigations revealed that the axles have not been machined at the inboard axle band Outside Diameter (O/D) as intended by the Component Maintenance Manual (CMM). This condition if not corrected has a detrimental effect on the fatigue lives of these parts, possibly affecting the structural integrity of the MLG. Fatigue analyses were performed and the results indicated that the life limit of the affected MLG wheel axles must be reduced to below the life limit stated in the A340 AIRBUS Airworthiness Limitation Section (ALS) Part 1.
To address this unsafe condition, th e European Aviation Safety Agenc y (EASA) issued Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2011-0170 which required the replacement of the affected MLG wheel axles before reaching the new reduced demonstrated life limit. Since issuance of that AD, it was discovered that an additional number of MLG wheel axles have been subject to incorrect repairs. Therefore, AD 2013-0067 has since been released to capture these additional parts.
Since the issue of AD 2013-0067, it has been found that incorrect repairs on additional MLG wheel axles have been performed necessitating implementation of reduced life limits.
The potential affected MLG wheel axles Part Numbers (PNs) are:

(1) Classification MANDATORY: Service Bulletin must be accomplished.
(2) Accomplishment Timescale This Service Bulletin has been classified Mandatory. It is expected that an Airworthiness Directive (AD) published by the European Av iation Safety Agenc y (EASA) will be issued to confirm this classification. It is anticipated that the AD will confirm the (thresholds and/or intervals and/or date) given but reference should be made to the AD for confirmation of the mandated accomplishment timescale.
