(1) If no crack is found and the structure has not been repaired previously, repeat the inspection at intervals not to exceed 4,000 landings. (2) If no crack is found but the structure has been repaired previously, repeat the inspection at applicable intervals specified in Appendix 1 of the service bulletin. Note 2: For the purposes of this AD, a detailed inspection is ‘‘an intensive visual examination of a specific structural area, system, installation, or assembly to detect damage, failure, or irregularity. Available lighting is normally supplemented with a direct source of good lighting at intensity deemed appropriate by the inspector. Inspection aids such as mirror, magnifying lenses, etc., may be used. Surface cleaning and elaborate access procedures may be required.’’ Post-Incident Inspection (h) If, before or after any inspection required by this AD, the airplane experiences any incident of nose wheel shimmy; overweight, hard, or high drag/side load landing; flight in severe turbulence; or pitch oscillation: Before further flight, repeat the inspection required by paragraph (g) of this AD. If no crack is found, repeat the inspection required by paragraph (g)(1) or (g)(2) of this AD, as applicable. Corrective Actions (i) If any crack is found during any inspection required by paragraph (g) or (h) of this AD, before further flight, replace the elevator ‘‘G’’ weight support structure in accordance with paragraph (j) of this AD, or repair the structure in accordance with a method approved by the Manager, International Branch, ANM–116, FAA, Transport Airplane Directorate, or the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) (or its delegated representative). Optional Terminating Action (j) Replacement of the existing elevator ‘‘G’’ weight support structure with a new, improved elevator ‘‘G’’ weight support structure in accordance with BAE Systems (Operations) Limited Modification Service Bulletin SB.27–037–00654A, Revision 2, dated May 8, 2003, terminates the repetitive inspections required by paragraph (g) of this AD. No Reporting Requirement (k) Although the service bulletins referenced in this AD specify to submit certain information to the manufacturer, this AD does not include that requirement.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On Thursday, December 30, 2004, the FAA proposed to revise part 71 
of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to create new 
Class E airspace upward from 700 ft. above the surface at Beluga, AK 
(69 FR 78371). The action was proposed in order to establish Class E 
airspace sufficient in size to contain aircraft while executing Special 
Instrument Approach Procedures at the Beluga Airport. New Class E 
controlled airspace extending upward from 700 ft. above the surface 
within a 5-mile radius of the Beluga Airport is established by this 
action. Interested parties were invited to participate in this 
rulemaking proceeding by submitting written comments on the proposal to 
the FAA. No public comments have been received, thus, the rule is 
adopted as proposed.
    The area will be depicted on aeronautical charts for pilot 
reference. The coordinates for this airspace docket are based on North 
American Datum 83. The Class E airspace areas designated as 700/1200 
foot transition areas are published in paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 
7400.9M, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 30, 
2004, and effective September 16, 2004, which is incorporated by 
reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace designation listed in 
this document will be published subsequently in the Order.

The Rule

    This revision to 14 CFR part 71 establishes Class E airspace at 
Beluga Airport, Alaska. This additional Class E airspace was created to 
accommodate aircraft executing Special Instrument Flight Procedures and 
will be depicted on aeronautical charts for pilot reference. The 
intended effect of this rule is to provide adequate controlled airspace 
for IFR operations at Beluga Airport, Alaska.
    The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an 
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and 
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current. 
It, therefore--(1) is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under 
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT 
Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979); 
and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation as the 
anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this a routine matter that will 
only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is certified 
that this rule will not have a significant economic impact on a 
substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the 
Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is 
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. Subtitle 1, section 106 
describes the authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, 
Aviation Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency's 
authority.
    This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in 
Subtitle VII, part A, subpart 1, section 40103, Sovereignty and use of 
airspace. Under that section, the FAA is charged with prescribing 
regulations to ensure the safe and efficient use of the navigable 
airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority because 
it creates Class E airspace sufficient in size to contain aircraft 
executing Instrument Approach Procedures for the Beluga Airport and 
represents the FAA's continuing effort to safely and efficiently use 
the navigable airspace.
