Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Helicopters

Published Date: 4/14/2026

Rule

Summary

The FAA is officially canceling a previous emergency rule that required Airbus H160-B helicopter owners to replace certain rotor parts because the problem was actually due to maintenance, not a safety risk. This means no more forced part swaps or reports, saving time and money. The change takes effect April 14, 2026, but the FAA still wants to hear your thoughts by May 29, 2026.
