[Mattias Holmén]

Jag vart uppmärksammad om detta via Aeronews facebooksida igår. Hittar ingen tråd om det här ännu så därför startar jag denna.

”OLDER Airbus operators are set to be ordered to check for cracking in the region of the outer rear wing spar. EASA has disclosed that cracks have been discovered in this area, notably on top and bottom flanges between ribs 33 and 49.

Both wings are potentially affected, says EASA in a proposed directive, adding that the situation could reduce the wings' structural integrity. EASA says the directive would be limited to the 25 oldest wing sets on the A380 fleet, although it could subsequently expand to cover additional aircraft.”
