Accordingly, pursuant to the authority
delegated to me by the Administrator,
the Federal Aviation Administration
amends part 39 of the Federal Aviation
Regulations (14 CFR part 39) as follows:

2. Section 39.13 is amended by adding
a new airworthiness directive to read as
follows:

Applicability: Model BO 105 LS A–3
helicopters certificated in any category.
Compliance: Required as indicated, unless
accomplished previously.
To prevent fatigue failure of a fixed bolt
and main rotor nut, and subsequent loss of
control of the helicopter, accomplish the
following:
(a) Within 30 days:
(1) Modify the Airworthiness Limitation
section, Time Change Items (TCI) list, or table
of life-limited components, with their revised
life limits by adding part number (P/N) 105–
142241.01 and by changing P/N LN 9038
K08018 to P/N 105–101021.17, as shown in
the following table.

jlentini on PROD1PC65 with RULES
The number of flights equals the number of landings (i.e., ground contacts).
(2) Create a historical or equivalent record
for each of the parts listed in the preceding
table.
(3) Review the aircraft records and
determine the TIS and landings on each nut,
P/N 105–142241.01. If the number of flights
(i.e., landings) is unknown, the initial life
limit is 18,900 hours TIS. Thereafter, record
the number of flights for use when
determining the retirement life.
(b) Before further flight, replace any nut
that has less than 150 hours TIS remaining
before reaching its life limit. Unless
accomplished previously, prior to replacing a
nut, re-identify the nut in accordance with
paragraph (c)(2) of this AD.
(c) Within 150 hours TIS:
(1) Replace the 4 bolts, P/N LN 9038
K08018, with bolts, P/N 105–101021.17, as
shown in Figure 1 of Eurocopter Alert
Service Bulletin No. ASB BO 105 LS 10–11,
dated May 11, 2005 (ASB).
(2) For those nuts with 150 or more hours
TIS remaining on their life, remove and reidentify those nuts, P/N 105–142241.01, by
adding the serial number of the main rotor
head, followed by a dash and a consecutive
number, in accordance with the procedures
stated in Figure 2 of the ASB.
(d) Before further flight, remove any lifelimited part on which the life limit has been
equaled or exceeded.
(e) To request a different method of
compliance or a different compliance time
for this AD, follow the procedures in 14 CFR
39.19. Contact the Manager, Regulations and

provide for the safe and efficient use of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
amendment to part 95 of the Federal

amends, suspends, or revokes IFR
altitudes governing the operation of all
aircraft in flight over a specified route
or any portion of that route, as well as
the changeover points (COPs) for
Federal airways, jet routes, or direct
routes as prescribed in part 95.
The Rule
The specified IFR altitudes, when
used in conjunction with the prescribed
changeover points for those routes,
ensure navigation aid coverage that is
adequate for safe flight operations and
free of frequency interference. The

the need for this amendment involve
matters of flight safety and operational
efficiency in the National Airspace
System, are related to published
aeronautical charts that are essential to
the user, and provide for the safe and
efficient use of the navigable airspace.
In addition, those various reasons or
circumstances require making this
amendment effective before the next
scheduled charting and publication date
of the flight information to assure its
timely availability to the user. The
effective date of this amendment reflects
those considerations. In view of the
close and immediate relationship
between these regulatory changes and
safety in air commerce, I find that notice
and public procedure before adopting
this amendment are impracticable and
contrary to the public interest and that
good cause exists for making the
List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 95
Airspace, Navigation (air).
Conclusion
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 operational
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. For the same
reason, the FAA certifies that this
amendment will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities under the
criteria of the regulatory Flexibility Act.

Adoption of the Amendment
Accordingly, pursuant to the authority

the need for this amendment involve matters of flight safety and
