Airbus Helicopters AD Superseded
New AD supersedes a 2013 directive.

The FAA published an airworthiness directive—AD 2015-02-27—correcting a terminology error in previously issued AD 2013-19-19 for Airbus Helicopters AS332C/L/L1/L2 and EC225LP models. The new directive, which takes effect February 17, requires replacing certain serial-numbered main gearbox (MGB) bevel gear vertical shafts and inspecting and replacing, if necessary, each MGB bevel gear vertical shaft in the aforementioned helicopters.
