ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new
airworthiness directive (AD) for certain
Bombardier Model CL–600–1A11 (CL–
600), Model CL–600–2A12 (CL–601),
and Model CL–600–2B16 (CL–601–3A,
CL–601–3R, and CL–604) airplanes.
This AD requires operators to assign
serial numbers or part numbers to
certain landing gear parts and to
establish the number of landings on the
parts, if necessary. This AD also
requires operators to revise the
Airworthiness Limitations section of the
Instructions for Continued
Airworthiness to reflect the new life
limits of the landing gear parts. This AD
is prompted by reports that landing gear
parts that have safe-life limits but do not

have serial numbers or part numbers
can be removed from one landing gear
and re-installed on another, making
tracking difficult. We are issuing this
AD to prevent life-limited landing gear
parts from being used beyond their safelife limits, which could lead to collapse
of the landing gear.
DATES: Effective August 30, 2005.
The Director of the Federal Register
approved the incorporation by reference
of certain publications listed in the AD
as of August 30, 2005.

Airworthiness to reflect the new life
limits of the landing gear parts.
Discussion
The FAA issued a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 to include an AD that would
apply to certain Bombardier Model CL–
600–1A11 (CL–600), Model CL–600–
2A12 (CL–601), and Model CL–600–
2B16 (CL–601–3A, CL–601–3R, and CL–
604) airplanes. That NPRM was
published in the Federal Register on
May 9, 2005 (70 FR 24331). (A
correction of the rule was published in
the Federal Register on May 19, 2005
(70 FR 28988)). That NPRM proposed to
require operators to assign serial
numbers or part numbers to certain
landing gear parts and to establish the
number of landings on the parts, if
necessary. That NPRM also proposed to
require operators to revise the
Airworthiness Limitations section of the
Instructions for Continued
We have revised the applicability to
reflect the model designations as
published in the most recent type
certificate data sheet.
Comments
We provided the public the
opportunity to participate in the
development of this AD. We received no
comments on the NPRM or on the
determination of the cost to the public.
Explanation of Change to Applicability
Conclusion
We have carefully reviewed the
available data and determined that air
safety and the public interest require
adopting the AD with the change
described previously. We have
determined that this change will neither
increase the economic burden on any
operator nor increase the scope of the
AD.
Costs of Compliance
The following table provides the
estimated costs for U.S. operators to
assign serial numbers or part numbers to
certain landing gear parts to comply
with this AD.
ESTIMATED COSTS

CL–600–2A12 (CL–601), CL–600–2B16 (CL–601–3A and CL–

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

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,
or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various
levels of government.
For the reasons discussed above, I
certify that this AD:
(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

SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new
airworthiness directive (AD) for Rolls
Royce plc (RR) RB211–524 series
turbofan engines with certain part
number (P/N) intermediate pressure (IP)
compressor stage 5 disks installed. This
AD requires new reduced IP compressor
stage 5 disk cyclic limits. This AD also
requires removing from service affected
disks that already exceed the new
reduced cyclic limit, and removing
other affected disks before exceeding
their cyclic limits, using a drawdown
schedule. This AD results from the
discovery of cracks in the cooling air
hole areas of the disk front spacer arm.
We are issuing this AD to prevent IP
compressor stage 5 disk failure, which
could result in uncontained engine
failure and possible damage to the
airplane.
This AD becomes effective
August 30, 2005. The Director of the
Federal Register approved the
incorporation by reference of certain
publications listed in the regulations as
of August 30, 2005.

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
certain Bombardier Model CL-600-1A11 (CL-600), Model CL-600-2A12 (CL-
601), and Model CL-600-2B16 (CL-601-3A, CL-601-3R, and CL-604)
airplanes. This AD requires operators to assign serial numbers or part
numbers to certain landing gear parts and to establish the number of
landings on the parts, if necessary. This AD also requires operators to
revise the Airworthiness Limitations section of the Instructions for
Continued Airworthiness to reflect the new life limits of the landing
gear parts. This AD is prompted by reports that landing gear parts that
have safe-life limits but do not
[[Page 43033]]
have serial numbers or part numbers can be removed from one landing
gear and re-installed on another, making tracking difficult. We are
issuing this AD to prevent life-limited landing gear parts from being
used beyond their safe-life limits, which could lead to collapse of the
landing gear.
DATES: Effective August 30, 2005.
The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of certain publications listed in the AD as of August 30,
2005.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Examining the Docket
You may examine the AD docket on the Internet at https://dms.dot.gov
or in person at the Docket Management Facility office between 9 a.m.
and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays. The Docket
Management Facility office (telephone (800) 647-5227) is located on the
plaza level of the Nassif Building at the street address stated in the
ADDRESSES section.
Discussion
The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14
CFR part 39 to include an AD that would apply to certain Bombardier
Model CL-600-1A11 (CL-600), Model CL-600-2A12 (CL-601), and Model CL-
600-2B16 (CL-601-3A, CL-601-3R, and CL-604) airplanes. That NPRM was
published in the Federal Register on May 9, 2005 (70 FR 24331). (A
correction of the rule was published in the Federal Register on May 19,
2005 (70 FR 28988)). That NPRM proposed to require operators to assign
serial numbers or part numbers to certain landing gear parts and to
establish the number of landings on the parts, if necessary. That NPRM
also proposed to require operators to revise the Airworthiness
Limitations section of the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness to
reflect the new life limits of the landing gear parts.
Comments
We provided the public the opportunity to participate in the
development of this AD. We received no comments on the NPRM or on the
determination of the cost to the public.
Explanation of Change to Applicability
We have revised the applicability to reflect the model designations
as published in the most recent type certificate data sheet.
Conclusion
We have carefully reviewed the available data and determined that
air safety and the public interest require adopting the AD with the
change described previously. We have determined that this change will
neither increase the economic burden on any operator nor increase the
scope of the AD.
Costs of Compliance
The following table provides the estimated costs for U.S. operators
to assign serial numbers or part numbers to certain landing gear parts
to comply with this 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 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, or on the distribution of power
and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this AD:
(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.
We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to
comply with this AD and placed it in the AD docket. See the ADDRESSES
section for a location to examine the regulatory evaluation.

Establish the Number of Landings
(g) At the applicable time specified in paragraph (f) of this
AD: If a component does not have a serial number and the CSN or TSN
were not tracked, use the formula in the applicable Messier-Dowty
service bulletin in Table 2 of this AD to establish the number of
landings (TSN or CSN), and record the newly calculated TSN or CSN in
the aircraft log books.
Revise the Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS)
(h) Within 30 days after the effective date of this AD, revise
the ALS of the applicable Instructions for Continued Airworthiness
to reflect the new life limits of the landing gear parts by
inserting copies of the Canadair temporary revisions (TR) in Table 3
of this AD into the ALS of the applicable Canadair Time-Limits/
Maintenance Check Manual. When the contents of the TRs are included
in the general revisions of the ALS, these TRs may be removed
provided the relevant information in the ALS is identical to that in
the TRs.
