Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Model A300 B2 and B4 Series 
Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of 
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This document corrects a typographical error that appeared in 
airworthiness directive (AD) 2005-03-14, which was published in the 
Federal Register on February 14, 2005 (70 FR 7384). The typographical 
error resulted in an incorrect reference to an AD number. This AD is 
applicable to certain Airbus Model A300 B2 and B4 series airplanes. 
This AD supersedes an existing AD that currently requires determining 
the part and amendment number of the variable lever arm (VLA) of the 
rudder control system to verify that the parts were installed using the 
correct standard, and corrective actions if necessary. For certain 
VLAs, this new AD requires repetitive inspections of the VLA and 
corrective action if necessary. This new AD also provides a terminating 
action for the repetitive inspections. Furthermore, this new AD reduces 
the applicability of affected airplanes.

DATES: Effective March 21, 2005.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2005-03-14, 
amendment 39-13970, applicable to certain Airbus Model A300 B2 and B4 
series airplanes, was published in the Federal Register on February 14, 
2005 (70 FR 7384). That AD supersedes an existing AD that currently 
requires determining the part and amendment number of the variable 
lever arm (VLA)

of the rudder control system to verify the parts were installed using 
the correct standard, and corrective actions if necessary. For certain 
VLAs, this new AD requires repetitive inspections of the VLA and 
corrective action if necessary. This new AD also provides a terminating 
action for the repetitive inspections. Furthermore, this new AD reduces 
the applicability of affected airplanes.
    As published, that final rule incorrectly specified the AD number 
for the superseded AD in a single location in the AD as ``2002-08-13'' 
instead of ``2001-22-02.''
    Since no other part of the regulatory information has been changed, 
the final rule is not being republished in the Federal Register.
    The effective date of this AD remains March 21, 2005.
