SUMMARY: We are adopting a new
airworthiness directive (AD) for certain
Pacific Aerospace Corporation Ltd.
Model 750XL airplanes. This AD
requires you to inspect the condition of
the insulation of the wiring adjacent to
the electrical plugs mounted in the lefthand (LH) and right-hand (RH) sides of
the forward end of the cockpit center
console for signs of abrasion and arcing.
If you find any evidence of abrasion or
arcing, this AD requires you to replace
the affected wire(s) and secure the wires
away from the back shells of the
electrical plugs. This AD results from
mandatory continuing airworthiness
information (MCAI) issued by the
airworthiness authority for New
Zealand. We are issuing this AD to
detect and correct damaged wires on the
LH and RH sides of the forward end of
the cockpit center console, which could
result in short-circuiting of the related
wiring. This could lead to electrical
failure of affected systems and potential
fire in the cockpit.
DATES: This AD becomes effective on
July 14, 2006.
As of July 14, 2006, the Director of the
Federal Register approved the
incorporation by reference of certain
publications listed in the regulation.
ADDRESSES: For service information
identified in this AD, contact Pacific
Aerospace Corporation Ltd., Hamilton
Airport, Private Bag HN 3027, Hamilton,
New Zealand; telephone: 011 (64) 7–
843–6144; fax: 011 (64) 7–843–6134.

On March 20, 2006, we issued a
proposal to amend part 39 of the Federal
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 39) to
include an AD that would apply to
certain Pacific Aerospace Corporation
Ltd. (Pacific Aerospace) Model 750XL
airplanes. This proposal was published
in the Federal Register as a notice of
proposed rulemaking (NPRM) on March
27, 2006 (71 FR 15061). The NPRM
proposed to require you to inspect the
condition of the insulation of the wiring
adjacent to the electrical plugs mounted
in the left-hand (LH) and right-hand
(RH) sides of the forward end of the
cockpit center console for signs of
abrasion and arcing. If you find any
evidence of abrasion or arcing, the
NPRM proposed to require you to
replace the affected wire(s) and secure
the wires away from the back shells of
the electrical plugs.
Comments
We provided the public the
opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. We received no comments on
the proposal or on the determination of
the cost to the public.
Conclusion
We have carefully reviewed the
available data and determined that air
safety and the public interest require
adopting the AD as proposed except for
minor editorial corrections. We have
determined that these minor
corrections:
• Are consistent with the intent that
was proposed in the NPRM for
correcting the unsafe condition; and
• Do not add any additional burden
upon the public than was already
proposed in the NPRM.
Costs of Compliance
We estimate that this AD affects 5
airplanes in the U.S. registry.
We estimate the following costs to do
the inspection:

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 AD.
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 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 summary of the costs
to comply with this AD (and other
information as included in the
Regulatory Evaluation) and placed it in
the AD Docket. You may get a copy of
this summary by sending a request to us
at the address listed under ADDRESSES.
Include ‘‘Docket No. FAA–2006–24081;
Directorate Identifier 2006–CE–15–AD’’
in your request.

Discussion
On March 22, 2006, we issued a
proposal to amend part 39 of the Federal
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 39) to
include an AD that would apply to
DORNIER LUFTFAHRT GmbH
(DORNIER) Models 228–100, 228–101,
228–200, 228–201, 228–202, and 228–
212 airplanes. This proposal was
published in the Federal Register as a
notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
on March 29, 2006 (71 FR 15647). The
NPRM proposed to require you to
repetitively inspect the wiring in the
flight deck overhead panels (locations
5VE and 6VE) for chafing and damage
and repair any chafed or damaged wires.
Regardless of the results of each
inspection, the NPRM would require
you to assure correct installation of the
wiring in the flight deck overhead
panels by reattaching or replacing the
wire tie attachment holders and
securing any loose wires to the wire tie
attachment holders with plastic wire
ties.
Comments
We provided the public the
opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. We received no comments on
the proposal or on the determination of
the cost to the public.
Conclusion
We have carefully reviewed the

safety and the public interest require
adopting the AD as proposed except for
minor editorial corrections. We have
determined that these minor
corrections:
• Are consistent with the intent that
was proposed in the NPRM for
correcting the unsafe condition; and
• Do not add any additional burden
upon the public than was already
proposed in the NPRM.

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

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 AD.
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 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 summary of the costs to comply with this AD (and
other information as included in the Regulatory Evaluation) and placed
it in the AD Docket. You may get a copy of this summary by sending a
