Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Airbus Helicopters Model H160-B helicopters. This proposed AD was prompted by a determination that a gap without fire-resistant sealant (sealant) may be present in the cargo bay near the fuel segregation box. This proposed AD would require inspecting for any missing sealant and, depending on findings, corrective action. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
