ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Cessna Aircraft Company (Cessna) Models 182Q and 182R airplanes that ´ are equipped with Societe de ´ Motorisations Aeronautiques (SMA) Aircraft Diesel Engine (ADE) Model SR305–230–1 or Model SR305–230 converted to Model SR305–230–1 installed under Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) SA03302AT. This AD requires you to remove the intercooler and the intercooler inlet and outlet hoses, install a reworked intercooler and new intercooler inlet and outlet hoses, inspect hoses and clamp torques, repetitively inspect installation of the intercooler outlet and inlet hose assemblies for any displacement or damage of clamps or hoses, and, if necessary, replace any damaged clamps or hoses. This AD results from a report of two instances of induction hose disconnection occurring while in service, resulting in a loss of turbo boost and a significant loss of engine power. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct improper intercooler outlet and intercooler inlet hose assembly installations, which could result in loss of turbo boost and a significant loss of engine power. This failure could lead to an inability to maintain constant altitude in flight. DATES: This AD becomes effective on March 27, 2009. On March 27, 2009, the Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in this AD. ADDRESSES: For service information identified in this AD, contact SMA Customer Service, 10–12 Rue Didier Daurat, 18021 Bourges, France; telephone: +33 (0) 2 48 67 56 00; fax: +33 (0) 2 48 50 01 41; E-mail: customer_services@smasr.com; Internet: https://www.smaengines.com.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Discussion On November 6, 2008, 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 Cessna Models 182Q and 182R airplanes that are equipped with SMA ADE Model SR305–230–1 or Model SR305–230 converted to Model SR305– 230–1 installed under STC SA03302AT. This proposal was published in the Federal Register as a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) on November 13, 2008 (73 FR 67112). The NPRM proposed to require you to remove the intercooler and the intercooler inlet and outlet hoses, install a reworked intercooler and new intercooler inlet and outlet hoses, inspect hoses and clamp torques, repetitively inspect installation of the intercooler outlet and inlet hose assemblies for any displacement or damage of clamps or hoses, and, if necessary, replace any damaged clamps or hoses. 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 7 airplanes in the U.S. registry. We estimate the following costs to do the replacements: Labor cost Parts cost Total cost per airplane Total cost on U.S. operators 4 work-hours × $80 per hour = $320 .......................................................................................... $3,436 $3,756 $26,292 We estimate the following costs to do any inspection of the installation of the intercooler hose assembly that would be required: Labor cost Parts cost Total cost per airplane 2 work-hours × $80 per hour = $160 ...........................................................................

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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Discussion The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the European Community, has issued Emergency AD No. 2009–0028–E, dated February 11, 2009 (referred to after this as ‘‘the MCAI’’), to correct an unsafe condition for the specified products. The MCAI states: Field reports have indicated that during take-off with light turbulences or after rapid roll/heading attitude changes soon after takeoff, it is possible that both PFDs (Primary Flight Display) indicate a roll attitude offset of up to 10 degrees in the same direction. This condition has been reported to correct itself after several minutes of un-accelerated flight with levelled wings and no sideslip. This situation, if not corrected, could result in an undesired bank angle which constitutes an unsafe condition. For the reason described above, this Airworthiness Directive (AD) mandates as an interim measure a revision of the operational procedures to be inserted into the Pilot’s Operating Handbook (POH). You may obtain further information by examining the MCAI in the AD docket. FAA’s Determination and Requirements of the AD This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant to our bilateral agreement with this State of Design Authority, they have notified us of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and service information referenced above. We are issuing this AD because we evaluated all information provided by the State of Design Authority and determined the unsafe condition exists and is likely to exist or develop on other products of the same type design.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain 
Cessna Aircraft Company (Cessna) Models 182Q and 182R airplanes that 
are equipped with Societ[eacute] de Motorisations A[eacute]ronautiques 
(SMA) Aircraft Diesel Engine (ADE) Model SR305-230-1 or Model SR305-230 
converted to Model SR305-230-1 installed under Supplemental Type 
Certificate (STC) SA03302AT. This AD requires you to remove the 
intercooler and the intercooler inlet and outlet hoses, install a 
reworked intercooler and new intercooler inlet and outlet hoses, 
inspect hoses and clamp torques, repetitively inspect installation of 
the intercooler outlet and inlet hose assemblies for any displacement 
or damage of clamps or hoses, and, if necessary, replace any damaged 
clamps or hoses. This AD results from a report of two instances of 
induction hose disconnection occurring while in service, resulting in a 
loss of turbo boost and a significant loss of engine power. We are 
issuing this AD to detect and correct improper intercooler outlet and 
intercooler inlet hose assembly installations, which could result in 
loss of turbo boost and a significant loss of engine power. This 
failure could lead to an inability to maintain constant altitude in 
flight.

DATES: This AD becomes effective on March 27, 2009.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion

    On November 6, 2008, 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 Cessna Models 182Q and 182R airplanes that are 
equipped with SMA ADE Model SR305-230-1 or Model SR305-230 converted to 
Model SR305-230-1 installed under STC SA03302AT. This proposal was 
published in the Federal Register as a notice of proposed rulemaking 
(NPRM) on November 13, 2008 (73 FR 67112). The NPRM proposed to require 
you to remove the intercooler and the intercooler inlet and outlet 
hoses, install a reworked intercooler and new intercooler inlet and 
outlet hoses, inspect hoses and clamp torques, repetitively inspect 
installation of the intercooler outlet and inlet hose assemblies for 
any displacement or damage of clamps or hoses, and, if necessary, 
replace any damaged clamps or hoses.

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 7 airplanes in the U.S. registry.
    We estimate the following costs to do the replacements:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                                 Total cost per   Total cost on

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    We estimate the following costs to do any inspection of the 
installation of the intercooler hose assembly that would be required:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                          Total cost per

    We have no way of determining the cost of any necessary replacement 
that may be required as a result of any 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-2008-1205; Directorate Identifier 2008-CE-062-AD'' in your 
request.

FAA-2008-1205; Directorate Identifier 2008-CE-062-AD.

Effective Date

    (a) This AD becomes effective on March 27, 2009.

Affected ADs

    (b) None.

Applicability

    (c) This AD applies to Models 182Q and 182R airplanes, all 
serial numbers, certificated in any category, that are equipped 
with:
    (1) Societ[eacute] de Motorisations A[eacute]ronautiques (SMA) 
aircraft diesel engine (ADE) Model SR305-230-1 installed under 
Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) SA03302AT; or
    (2) SMA ADE Model SR305-230 converted to Model SR305-230-1 (by 
incorporation of SMA Service Bulletin SB-01-76-002) installed under 
STC SA03302AT.

Unsafe Condition

    (d) This AD results from a report of two instances of induction 
hose disconnection occurring while in service on the air inlet 
manifold circuit, resulting in a loss of turbo boost and a 
significant loss of engine power. We are issuing this AD to detect 
and correct improper intercooler hose assembly installation, which 
could result in loss of turbo boost and a significant loss of engine 
power. This failure could lead to an inability to maintain constant 
altitude in flight.

Compliance

    (e) To address this problem, you must do the following, unless 
already done:
