89-09-01 AIRBUS INDUSTRIE: Amendment 39-6192.
Applicability: Model A300 series airplanes, on which Modification 1988 has been accomplished (Post Service Bulletin A300-54-022), and all Model A310 and A300-600 equipped with Walter Kidde or APCO fire extinguisher bottles, certificated in any category.

B. Whenever the fire extinguishers bottles are replaced, perform the inspection required by paragraph A., above.
C. An alternate means of compliance or adjustment of the compliance time, which provides an acceptable level of safety, may be used when approved by the Manager, Standardization Branch, ANM-113, FAA, Northwest Mountain Region.
NOTE: The request should be forwarded through an FAA Principal Maintenance Inspector (PMI), who may add any comments and then send it to the Manager, Standardization Branch, ANM-113.
D. Special flight permits may be issued in accordance with FAR 21.197 and 21.199 to operate airplanes to a base for the accomplishment of the inspection/modification required by this AD.
