Applicability
From the AD text(c) This AD applies to Airbus Model A340-211, -212, and -213, and Model A340-311, -312, and -313 airplanes, certificated in any category; modified by Airbus modification 40647. Unsafe Condition (d) This AD results from a report that a software error could result in a miscalculation (underestimation) of the runway length necessary for takeoff in the case of a ferry flight with one engine not operating. The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent this miscalculation, which, if combined with high takeoff weight, too-short runway length, and high altitude and temperature of the airport, could result in inability of the flightcrew to abort the takeoff in a safe manner, reduced controllability of the airplane, and runway overrun.
