EASA AD No.: 2015-0239-E
Emergency Airworthiness Directive
AD No.: 2015-0239-E
Issued: 18 December 2015
Note: This Emergency Airworthiness Directive (AD) is issued by EASA, acting in accordance with
Regulation (EC) 216/2008 on behalf of the European Union, its Member States and of the
European third countries that participate in the activities of EASA under Article 66 of that
Regulation.
This AD is issued in accordance with Regulation (EU) 748/2012, Part 21.A.3B. In accordance with Regulation (EU) 1321/2014 Annex I, Part M.A.301, the
continuing airworthiness of an aircraft shall be ensured by accomplishing any applicable ADs. Consequently, no person may operate an aircraft to which
an AD applies, except in accordance with the requirements of that AD, unless otherwise specified by the Agency [Regulation (EU) 1321/2014 Annex I,
Part M.A.303] or agreed with the Authority of the State of Registry [Regulation (EC) 216/2008, Article 14(4) exemption].
Design Approval Holder’s Name: Type/Model designation(s):
AIRBUS HELICOPTERS AS 332 and EC 225 helicopters
Effective Date: 22 December 2015
TCDS Number(s): EASA.R.002
Foreign AD: Not applicable
Supersedure: None
ATA 32 – Landing Gear – Emergency Flotation Gear Upper Fitting Attaching Screws –
Inspection / Replacement
Manufacturer(s):
Airbus Helicopters (formerly Eurocopter, Eurocopter France, Aerospatiale)
Applicability:
AS 332 C, AS 332 C1, AS 332 L, AS 332 L1, AS 332 L2 and EC 225 LP helicopters, all manufacturer
serial numbers, if equipped with emergency flotation gear.
Reason:
An occurence was reported of rupture of a screw on the rear upper fitting on the left hand (LH)
emergency flotation gear on an AS 332 helicopter. Investigations have not yet identified the root
cause of this failure.
This condition, if not detected and corrected, could result, in case of ditching, in failure of an
emergency flotation system and, consequently, unstable floating of the helicopter, possibly
resulting in injuy to the occupants.
To address this potential unsafe condition, Airbus Helicopters (AH) issued AS332 Emergency Alert
Service Bulletin (ASB) 05.01.06 and EC225 ASB 05A047 (hereafter referred to as ‘the applicable ASB’
in this AD), providing inspection instructions.

EASA AD No.: 2015-0239-E
For the reason described above, this AD requires repetitive inspections of the lower screws of the
rear upper fitting on the rear LH and right hand (RH) emergency flotation gears and, depending on
findings, accomplishment of applicable corrective action(s).
Required Action(s) and Compliance Time(s):
Required as indicated, unless accomplished previously:
(1) Within 15 flight hours (FH) after the effective date of this AD, and, thereafter, at intervals not to
exceed 15 FH, inspect the heads of the three (3) screws on the rear upper fitting of each
emergency flotation gear, both LH and RH sides, in accordance with the instructions of
paragraph 3.B.1 of the applicable ASB.
(2) If, during any inspection as required by paragraph (1) of this AD, at least one screw head moves
or is found missing on one fitting, before the next flight when the emergency flotation system
must be armed, replace the two lower screws and the upper screw on that fitting in accordance
with the instructions of paragraph 3.B.2 of the applicable ASB.
(3) Replacement of screws on a helicopter, as required by paragraph (2) of this AD, does not
constitute terminating action for the repetitive inspections as required by paragraph (1) of this
AD for that helicopter.

Foreign AD: Not applicable
Supersedure: None
ATA 04 – Life limited items - Airworthiness limitation Section Amendment /
Implementation
Manufacturer(s):
Enstrom Helicopter Corporation
Applicability:
Enstrom F-28A, F-28C, F-28C-2, 280 and 280C helicopters, all variants, all serial numbers.
Reason:
The airworthiness limitations applicable to the Enstrom F-28 and 280 helicopters are listed in the
Federal Aviation Administration Type Certificate Data Sheet H1CE. This document is not legally
binding for helicopters operated under EASA rules.
Failure to comply with these life limits could affect the safety of the helicopter and constitutes a
potential unsafe condition.
For the reason described above, this AD provides a list of applicable airworthiness limitation and
mandates compliance with these requirements.
Required Action(s) and Compliance Time(s):
Required as indicated, unless accomplished previously:

EASA AD No.: 2015-0235
(1) From the effective date of this AD, replace each component before exceeding the applicable
life limit as specified in the Appendix 1 of this AD.
(2) Within 12 months after the effective date of this AD, revise the approved aircraft
maintenance programme (AMP), on the basis of which the operator or the owner ensures the
continuing airworthiness of each operated helicopter, by incorporating the limitations
described in the Appendix 1 of this AD.
(3) When an AMP of an helicopter has been revised as required by paragraph (2) of this AD, as
applicable, that action ensures (see Note 1 of this AD) continued accomplishment of the tasks
as required by paragraph (1) of this AD for that helicopter. Consequently, after revising the
AMP, as required by paragraph (2) of this AD, as applicable, it is not necessary that
accomplishment of individual tasks is recorded for demonstration of AD compliance on a
continued basis.
Note 1: For affected helicopters registered in Europe, complying with the approved AMP as
specified in paragraph (2) of this AD is required by Commission Regulation (EU) No 1321/2014, Part
M.A.301, paragraph 3.
