Summary
 Requires removing skived polytetrafluoroethylene tape (PTFE tape) (if installed) and replacing certain polychloroprene seals with silicone seals, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD. This AD also prohibits installing a jettisonable window unless the actions required by this AD have been accomplished. This AD is prompted by modifications developed by Airbus to address a report of an emergency exit window that required excessive pushing force to jettison.
