or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various
levels of government. Therefore, it is
determined that this final rule does not
have federalism implications under
Executive Order 13132.
For the reasons discussed above, I
certify that this action (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)
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. A final evaluation has
been prepared for this action and it is
contained in the Rules Docket. A copy

continues to read as follows:
I
Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701.
§ 39.13
[Amended]
2. Section 39.13 is amended by adding
the following new airworthiness
directive:
I
2005–10–04 Airbus: Amendment 39–14081.
Docket 2002–NM–49–AD.
Applicability: Airbus Model A319, A320,
and A321 series airplanes; certificated in any
category; except those airplanes on which
Airbus Modification 30648 has been
installed.
Compliance: Required as indicated, unless
accomplished previously.
To prevent failure of the MLG side-stay
cuff lugs or down-lock spring attachments,
which could result in improper down-lock of
the MLG during a freefall extension, and
possible collapse of the MLG, accomplish the
following:
Inspection
(a) Do a general visual inspection of the
left- and right-side main landing gear (MLG)
side-stay cuff lugs and down-lock spring
attachments to detect failures (cracked or
fractured lugs), in accordance with the
Accomplishment Instructions of Airbus
Service Bulletin A320–32A1224, Revision 01,
VerDate jul<14>2003

Jkt 205001
dated June 11, 2002, at the later of the times
specified in paragraphs (a)(1) and (a)(2) of
this AD.
(1) Within 60 months from the first entry
into service of the MLG, or before the
accumulation of 9,000 total flight hours on
the MLG, whichever occurs first.
(2) Within 500 flight hours on the MLG
after the effective date of this AD.
Note 1: For the purposes of this AD, a
general visual inspection is: ‘‘A visual
examination of an interior or exterior area,
installation, or assembly to detect obvious
damage, failure, or irregularity. This level of
inspection is made from within touching
distance unless otherwise specified. A mirror
may be necessary to ensure visual access to
all surfaces in the inspection area. This level
of inspection is made under normally
available lighting conditions such as
daylight, hangar lighting, flashlight, or
droplight and may require removal or
opening of access panels or doors. Stands,
ladders, or platforms may be required to gain
proximity to the area being checked.’’
(b) If, during any inspection required by
paragraph (a) of this AD, no crack or fracture
is detected: Repeat the inspection required by
paragraph (a) of this AD thereafter at
intervals not to exceed 500 flight hours until
the actions specified in paragraph (f) of this
AD are accomplished.
(c) If, during any inspection required by
paragraph (a) of this AD, any crack or fracture
is detected: Before further flight, replace any
discrepant part with a new part of the same
type in accordance with the Accomplishment
Instructions of Airbus Service Bulletin A320–
32A1224, Revision 01, dated June 11, 2002.
Repeat the inspection required by paragraph
(a) of this AD thereafter at intervals not to
exceed 500 flight hours until the actions
specified in paragraph (f) of this AD are
accomplished.
Actions Accomplished Previously per
Earlier Revision of the Service Bulletin
(d) Inspections and part replacements
accomplished before the effective date of this
AD in accordance with the Accomplishment
Instructions of Airbus Service Bulletin A320–
32A1224, dated January 18, 2001, are
considered acceptable for compliance with
the requirements of paragraphs (a), (b), and
(c) of this AD.
Actions Accomplished per the Maintenance
Planning Document
(e) Compliance with task number 321119–
01–1, ‘‘Mechanism Visual Check of Main
Landing Gear Downlocking Springs and Sidestay Center Joint Links and Cuff,’’ in Revision
25, dated October 2001; or Revision 26a,
dated July 31, 2003; of the Airbus A318/
A319/A320/A321 Maintenance Planning
Document; is considered acceptable for
compliance with the inspection requirements
of paragraph (a) of this AD. Operators should
note that this task requires repetitive
inspections at 8-day intervals, instead of
intervals not to exceed 500 flight hours.
Optional Terminating Action
(f) Replacement of the MLG side-stay lugs
and links on the left and right sides of the
airplane, with lugs and links made of new,

This AD requires installing an
additional mounting angle for the
respective de-icing pipes at rib 9 in the

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 AD will
not have federalism implications under
Executive Order 13132. This AD will
not have a substantial direct effect on
the States, on the relationship between
the National Government and the States,

SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new
airworthiness directive (AD) for certain
Boeing Model 777–200 and –300 series
airplanes. This AD requires
modification of the operational program
software (OPS) of the air data inertial
reference unit (ADIRU). This AD is
prompted by a report of the display of
erroneous heading information to the
pilot due to a defect in the OPS of the
ADIRU. We are issuing this AD to
prevent the display of erroneous
heading information to the pilot, which
could result in loss of the main sources
of attitude data, consequent high pilot
workload, and subsequent deviation
from the intended flight path.
DATES: This AD becomes effective June
15, 2005.
The incorporation by reference of
certain publications listed in the AD is
approved by the Director of the Federal
Register as of June 15, 2005.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA
proposed to amend 14 CFR part 39 with
an AD for certain Boeing Model 777–
200 and –300 series airplanes. That
action, published in the Federal
Register on January 19, 2005 (70 FR
2980), proposed to require modification
of the operational program software
(OPS) of the air data inertial reference
unit (ADIRU).
Comments
We provided the public the
opportunity to participate in the
development of this AD. We have
considered the comments that have
been submitted on the proposed AD.
Support for the Proposed AD
One commenter supports the
proposed AD and states that it is
appropriate because it will prevent
future occurrences of erroneous heading
information being presented to the pilot.
Another commenter states that it
understands the need for the
modification to the affected OPS of the
ADIRU and does not have any objection
to the proposed AD. The second
commenter adds that the modification
was accomplished on all its Model 777
series airplanes in calendar year 2002.
Request To Add New Service
Information
Two commenters ask that Boeing
Service Bulletin 777–34–0094, dated
June 10, 2004, be added to the proposed
AD as an additional source of service
information for accomplishing the
modification of the OPS of the ADIRU.
One commenter, the airplane
manufacturer, states that the new
service bulletin provides procedures for
installation of a newer version of the
OPS of the ADIRU, which contains the
fix required by the proposed AD. The
commenter suggests adding the new
service bulletin to paragraph (f) of the
proposed AD as an option for
accomplishing the modification in the
proposed AD, instead of using the
service bulletin currently referenced.
Another commenter states that it is
concerned about any wording in the
proposed AD that may affect and impact
any future installations of new OPS of
the ADIRU. The commenter adds that it
is imperative that the proposed AD
address this issue as Boeing has already
released a new service bulletin. The
commenter notes that the new service
bulletin contains information for
updating the existing software with an
adjusted Mach function; the proposed
AD would mandate installation of
previous OPS of the ADIRU per Boeing
