Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 66 / Friday, April 4, 2008 / Rules and Regulations
Applicability
(c) This AD applies to Models PC–12, PC–
12/45, and PC–12/47 airplanes, all serial
numbers, certificated in any category.
Subject
(d) Air Transport Association of America
(ATA) Code 27: Flight Controls.
Reason
(e) This AD results from mandatory
continuing airworthiness information (MCAI)
originated by an aviation authority of another
country to identify and correct an unsafe
condition on an aviation product. We are
issuing this AD to mandate new life limits for
the pitch trim actuator and pitch trim
actuator attachment parts. If these new
limitations are not mandated, the pitch trim
actuator and the pitch trim actuator
components could fail. This failure could
lead to an unsafe flying configuration.

Actions and Compliance
Note 1: Pilatus has implemented a new
software publication system. During the
implementation of this new system, the
airplane maintenance manual revision
number was reset to 0. For the purposes of
this AD, the date of issue takes prescedence
over the revision level.
(f) Unless already done, do the following
within the next 30 days after May 9, 2008
(the effective date of this AD).
(1) Insert unclassified document 12–A/
AMP–04, Structural, Component and
Miscellaneous—Airworthiness Limitations,
12–A–04–00–00–00A–000A–A, dated
October 26, 2007 (Pilatus PC–12 Airplane
Maintenance Manual, Chapter 4, Report No.
02049, Issue 1, Revision 0, dated November
20, 2007), into the airworthiness limitations
section of the FAA-approved maintenance
program (e.g., maintenance manual) or use
the CD version that incorporates the
November 20, 2007, version of chapter 4 and
the corresponding version of chapter 5. You
may use any future amendment to this
Airworthiness Limitations section provided
it does not change the inspection intervals,
requirements, or the life limits for the pitch
trim actuator and pitch trim actuator
attachment parts of the document referenced
above. The owner/operator holding at least a
private pilot certificate as authorized by 14
CFR 43.7 may do this action. Make an entry
in the aircraft records showing compliance
with this portion of the AD following 14 CFR
43.9.
(2) In order to avoid confusion with the
new pitch trim actuator limitations now
contained in chapter 4 (previously contained
in chapter 5), make pen and ink changes in
chapter 5 and line through references to
limitations for the pitch trim actuator. You
do not have to make these pen and ink
changes if you are using the CD version that
incorporates the November 20, 2007, version
of chapter 4 and the corresponding version
of chapter 5.
FAA AD Differences
Note 2: This AD differs from the MCAI
and/or service information as follows: No
differences.

Other FAA AD Provisions
(g) The following provisions also apply to
this AD:
(1) Alternative Methods of Compliance
(AMOCs): The Manager, Standards Office,
FAA, has the authority to approve AMOCs
for this AD, if requested using the procedures
found in 14 CFR 39.19. Send information to

any airplane to which the AMOC applies,
notify your appropriate principal inspector
(PI) in the FAA Flight Standards District
Office (FSDO), or lacking a PI, your local
FSDO.
(2) Airworthy Product: For any requirement
in this AD to obtain corrective actions from
a manufacturer or other source, use these
actions if they are FAA-approved. Corrective
actions are considered FAA-approved if they
are approved by the State of Design Authority
(or their delegated agent). You are required
to assure the product is airworthy before it
is returned to service.
(3) Reporting Requirements: For any
reporting requirement in this AD, under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act
(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) has

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
On Friday, February 1, 2008, the FAA
proposed to amend part 71 of the
Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR
part 71) to revise Class E airspace
upward from 700 ft. above the surface
and from 1,200 ft. above the surface at
Anvik, AK (73 FR 6058). The action was
proposed in order to create Class E
airspace sufficient in size to contain
aircraft while executing SIAPs for the
Anvik Airport. Class E controlled
airspace extending upward from 700 ft.
above the surface and from 1,200 ft.
above the surface in the Anvik Airport
area is revised by this action.
Interested parties were invited to
participate in this rulemaking
proceeding by submitting written
comments on the proposal to the FAA.
No comments were received. 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
700/1,200 ft. transition areas are
published in paragraph 6005 of FAA
Order 7400.9R, Airspace Designations
and Reporting Points, signed August 15,
2007, and effective September 15, 2007,
which is incorporated by reference in 14
CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace
designations listed in this document
will be published subsequently in the
Order.
The Rule
This amendment to 14 CFR part 71
revises Class E airspace at the Anvik
Airport, Alaska. This Class E airspace is
revised to accommodate aircraft
executing new and amended SIAPs, and
a new DP, and will be depicted on
aeronautical charts for pilot reference.
The intended effect of this rule is to
provide adequate controlled airspace for

Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 66 / Friday, April 4, 2008 / Rules and Regulations
Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations
at the Anvik Airport, Anvik, 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 is 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 procedures for the
Anvik Airport and represents the FAA’s
continuing effort to safely and
efficiently use the navigable airspace.
