This is a proposed AD issued on July 5 so how could Qantas have complied with it and sign off on it on two aircraft when it’s not yet in existence?
As I understand it, the issue has been known about for some time with no immediate ramifications on the fleets.
Qantas conducted inspections as a precaution as routine maintenance was carried out but the proposed AD, with the time-frame included, has only recently been published.
Qantas (and probably Singair and Emirates) had already inspected some of the affected aircraft, and those inspections met the requirements of the AD.
