Import Requirements
The FAA can issue a U.S. airworthiness certificate based on an NAA Export Certificate of Airworthiness (Export C of A) signed
by a representative of the exporting foreign civil airworthiness authority on behalf of the European Community. The Export C of
A should contain the following statement: ‘The aircraft covered by this certificate has been examined, tested, and found to
conform with the Type Design approved under U.S. Type Certificate No. A58NM, and is in a condition for safe operation.
Compliance with Airworthiness Directives (ADs) has been checked only for ADs issued by EASA, ADs adopted by EASA and
ADs published by FAA.’
At the time of the first airplane import the latest approved Revision of each Airworthiness Limitation Section (ALS) listed under
the Note 3 must be incorporated in the maintenance program. After the first airplane import the later revision of an ALS will be
mandated by Airworthiness Directive.
Refer to the applicable bilateral agreement to verify eligibility for import into the United States of both new and used aircraft
based on the scope of the agreement, to identify any required statements by the exporting authority on the export certificate of
airworthiness (or equivalent document), and for procedures for coordinating exceptions to conformity statements on these
documents. Refer to FAA Order 8130.2, Airworthiness Certification of Aircraft, for requirements for issuance of an airworthiness
certificate for imported aircraft.
In order for the FAA to determine that an A380 aircraft is in a condition for safe operation under the provisions of 14 CFR
21.183, the FAA certificating inspector or other authorized person must contact the Manager, Europe, Middle East, & African
Section, International Validation Branch, Compliance & Airworthiness ,Division, Aircraft Certification Service; 2200 South
216th Street Des Moines, Washington 98198; telephone (206)-231-3645, prior to issuance of the U.S. airworthiness certificate to
obtain the FAA Required Airworthiness Action List (RAAL) for the A380. After the first airplane is imported to the U.S. the
RAAL will be finalized and published in the TCDS.
When the TCDS is amended to include the RAAL, a notice will be published in the Federal Register, to inform the public of this
amendment.
The RAAL contains a list of type design modifications and inspections that have been determined by the European Aviation
Safety Agency (EASA), which is the state of design authority for the Airbus A380, to be required to correct unsafe conditions
discovered on the original type design of the A380. EASA has issued Airworthiness Directives that require the accomplishment
Revision 11 Page 6 of 10 A58NM
of these modifications and inspections to correct the identified unsafe conditions, and has advised the FAA of this mandatory
continuing airworthiness information (MCAI). Based on this MCAI the FAA has determined that the airworthiness actions
identified in the EASA ADs listed in Model A380 RAAL are required in the interest of safety and are necessary for this airplane
to be in a condition for safe operation.
Prior to issuance of a Standard Airworthiness Certificate on any Airbus A380 model aircraft, all airworthiness actions listed in the
Model A380 RAAL must be accomplished in accordance with the compliance times listed in each MCAI, except as noted in the
RAAL. The MCAI listed in the RAAL are airworthiness limitations in addition to those listed in note 3 of this TCDS, and must
be included in the operator’s airplane maintenance or inspection program. All inspections or modifications, required by the
EASA MCAI, that have surpassed the initial compliance time, must be accomplished prior to issuance of the Standard
Airworthiness Certificate.
Any deviation from the requirements of the MCAIs, listed in the RAAL, must be approved by the Manager, Europe, Middle East,
& African Section, International Validation Branch, Compliance & Airworthiness Division, Aircraft Certification Service.
A Notice of Policy Statement announcing the FAA’s policy with respect to foreign MCAI, when no aircraft of the affected design
are currently registered in the U.S. was published in the Federal Register on May 1, 1998, docket 98-11648. Additional guidance
is contained in FAA advisory Circular 21-23, Airworthiness Certification of Civil Aircraft, Engines, Propellers, and Related
Products Imported into the United States.
Certification Basis
For model A380-841/842 series airplanes, the certification basis is 14 CFR part 25, effective February 1, 1965, including
Amendments 25-1 through 25-98, with elected Amendments 25-101, 25-103 through 25-106, 25-108, 25-109, 25-113 and 25-
114.
For Model A380-841/842 series airplanes with modification 78298, extended operation (ETOPS) with 280 Minutes Capability
Airbus elected to comply with CFR 14 part 25 sections 25.1535 at Amendment 25-120.
For Model A380-861 Series Airplanes, the certification basis is revised to require 14 CFR Part 25 at the following amendment
levels:
Amendment 99 for § 25.2
Amendment 100 for §§ 25.903, 25.1091
Amendment 101 for § 25.1183,
