Applicability: Arrius 2B and 2B1 engines
Requirement: Replace the fuel manifolds in accordance with Turbomeca Alert Service Bulletin A319 73 2012 Update 5.
Note: DGAC AD 1999-217(A) refers.
Compliance: Unless previously accomplished, in accordance with the requirement document, except where a power check, conducted according to the aircraft flight manual, shows a negative TOT margin, in which case, the fuel manifold must be replaced before further flight.

The original issue of this Airworthiness Directive became effective on 2 December 1999.
