Discussion We have received a report indicating that a cockpit ventilation and avionics cooling system blower motor seized up and gave off smoke on a Raytheon Hawker Model 125–800 airplane. Investigation revealed inadequate short circuit protection on the blower motor electrical circuit. This condition, if not corrected, could result in smoke and fumes in the cockpit in the event that a blower motor seizes and overheats due to excessive current draw. Relevant Service Information We have reviewed Raytheon Service Bulletin SB 24–3272, Revision 1, dated October 2000. The service bulletin describes procedures for inspecting to determine the current rating of the circuit breakers of certain cockpit ventilation and avionics cooling system blowers; and for replacing the circuit breakers and modifying the blower wiring, if applicable. Accomplishing the actions specified in the service information is intended to adequately address the unsafe condition. FAA’s Determination and Requirements of the Proposed AD We have evaluated all pertinent information and identified an unsafe condition that is likely to exist or develop on other airplanes of this same type design. Therefore, we are proposing this AD, which would require accomplishing the actions specified in the service information described previously, except as discussed under ‘‘Difference Between the Proposed AD and the Service Information.’’ Difference Between the Proposed AD and Service Information Although the service bulletin specifies that operators may contact the manufacturer for disposition of certain repair conditions, this proposed AD would require operators to repair those conditions according to a method approved by the FAA. Costs of Compliance There are about 350 airplanes of the affected design in the worldwide fleet. This proposed AD would affect about 250 airplanes of U.S. registry. The following table provides the estimated costs for U.S. operators to comply with this proposed AD. INSPECTION AND MODIFICATION COSTS Action Inspection ......................................................................................................................... Modification of cockpit blower circuit, if applicable ......................................................... Modification of instrument panel blower circuit, if applicable .......................................... Authority for This Rulemaking Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA’s authority to issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the Agency’s authority. We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in subtitle VII, part A, subpart III, section 44701, ‘‘General requirements.’’ Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this rulemaking action. VerDate jul<14>2003 15:25 Jan 21, 2005 Jkt 205001 Average labor rate per hour Work hours Regulatory Findings We have determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would not have a substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship between the national Government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government. For the reasons discussed above, I certify that the proposed regulation: 1. Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under Executive Order 12866; 2. Is not a ‘‘significant rule’’ under the DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979); and 3. Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Discussion

    We have received a report indicating that a cockpit ventilation and 
avionics cooling system blower motor seized up and gave off smoke on a 
Raytheon Hawker Model 125-800 airplane. Investigation revealed 
inadequate short circuit protection on the blower motor electrical 
circuit. This condition, if not corrected, could result in smoke and 
fumes in the cockpit in the event that a blower motor seizes and 
overheats due to excessive current draw.

Relevant Service Information

    We have reviewed Raytheon Service Bulletin SB 24-3272, Revision 1, 
dated October 2000. The service bulletin describes procedures for 
inspecting to determine the current rating of the circuit breakers of 
certain cockpit ventilation and avionics cooling system blowers; and 
for replacing the circuit breakers and modifying the blower wiring, if 
applicable. Accomplishing the actions specified in the service 
information is intended to adequately address the unsafe condition.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of the Proposed AD

    We have evaluated all pertinent information and identified an 
unsafe condition that is likely to exist or develop on other airplanes 
of this same type design. Therefore, we are proposing this AD, which 
would require accomplishing the actions specified in the service 
information described previously, except as discussed under 
``Difference Between the Proposed AD and the Service Information.''

Difference Between the Proposed AD and Service Information

    Although the service bulletin specifies that operators may contact 
the manufacturer for disposition of certain repair conditions, this 
proposed AD would require operators to repair those conditions 
according to a method approved by the FAA.

Costs of Compliance

    There are about 350 airplanes of the affected design in the 
worldwide fleet. This proposed AD would affect about 250 airplanes of 
U.S. registry. The following table provides the estimated costs for 
U.S. operators to comply with this proposed AD.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to 
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the 
authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation Programs, 
describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in 
subtitle VII, part A, subpart III, section 44701, ``General 
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with 
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing 
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator 
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within 
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition 
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this 
rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    We have determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism 
implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would not 
have a substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship 
between the national Government and the States, or on the distribution 
of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify that the proposed 
regulation:
    1. Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order 
12866;
    2. Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies 
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979); and
    3. Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or 
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria 
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to 
comply with this proposed AD. See the ADDRESSES section for a location 
to examine the regulatory evaluation.

Identifier 2004-NM-154-AD.

Comments Due Date

    (a) The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) must receive 
comments on this AD action by March 10, 2005.

Affected ADs

    (b) None.

Applicability

    (c) This AD applies to Raytheon Model HS.125 series 700A 
airplanes, Model BAe.125 series 800A airplanes, and Model Hawker 800 
and Hawker 800XP airplanes; equipped with Brailsford TBL-2.5 
blowers; as identified in Raytheon Service Bulletin SB 24-3272, 
Revision 1, dated October 2000; certificated in any category.

Unsafe Condition

    (d) This AD was prompted by a report indicating that a cockpit 
ventilation and avionics cooling system blower motor seized up and 
gave off smoke due to inadequate short circuit protection on the

smoke and fumes in the cockpit in the event that a blower motor 
seizes and overheats due to excessive current draw.

Compliance

AD performed within the compliance times specified, unless the 
actions have already been done.

Inspection and Corrective Actions

    (f) Within 600 flight hours or six months after the effective 
date of this AD, whichever occurs first, inspect to determine the 
current rating of the circuit breakers of certain cockpit 
ventilation and avionics cooling system blowers; and replace the 
circuit breakers and modify the blower wiring, as applicable; by 
doing all the actions in accordance with the Accomplishment 
Instructions of Raytheon Service Bulletin SB 24-3272, Revision 1, 
dated October 2000.

Contacting the Manufacturer

    (g) Where the service bulletin suggests contacting the 
manufacturer for information if any difficulties are encountered 
while accomplishing the service bulletin, this AD would require you 
to contact the Manager, Wichita Aircraft Certification Office (ACO), 
FAA.

Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs)

    (h) The Manager, Wichita ACO, has the authority to approve AMOCs 
for this AD, if requested in accordance with the procedures found in 
14 CFR 39.19.

    Issued in Renton, Washington, on January 12, 2005.
