Programme for Life Extension and Widespread Fatigue Damage Evaluation to Ensure Continued Structural Integrity of Airbus Large Transport Category Airplanes

Abstract

The Airworthiness Assurance Working Group (AAWG) has been charted by FAA to enhance and develop rules for continued structural integrity of large transport category airplanes. The subgroup AAWG - RWG(3 (Rule Writing Group) has completed a draft proposal for enhancement of AC91-56 and the introduction of operational rules of aircraft operated under 14 CFR Parts 91, 121, 125, 129 and 135.
