Subject
(d) Air Transport Association (ATA) of
America Code 27: Flight controls.
cprice-sewell on DSKDVH8Z91PROD with RULES
Reason
(e) The mandatory continuing
airworthiness information (MCAI) states:
One case of elevator servo-control
disconnection has been experienced on an
aircraft of the A320 family. Failure occurred
at the servo-control rod eye-end. Further to
this finding, additional inspections have
revealed cracking at the same location on a
number of other servo-control rod eye-ends.
In one case, both actuators of the same
elevator surface were affected. The root cause
of the cracking has not yet been determined
and tests are ongoing. It is anticipated that
further actions will be required.
A dual servo-control disconnection on the
same elevator could result in an uncontrolled
surface, the elevator surface being neither
actuated nor damped, which could lead to
reduced control of the aircraft.
For the reason described above, this AD
requires a one-time inspection [for cracking]
of the elevator servo-control rod eye-ends
and, in case of findings, the accomplishment
of corrective actions.
The corrective actions include replacing any
cracked rod eye-end with a serviceable unit
and re-adjusting the elevator servo-control.
Actions and Compliance
(f) Unless already done, after the
accumulation of 10,000 total flight cycles
since first flight of the airplane, do the
following actions.
(1) Not before the accumulation of 10,000
total flight cycles since first flight of the
airplane, and at the later of the times
specified in paragraphs (f)(1)(i) and (f)(1)(ii)
of this AD: Inspect both the left-hand and
right-hand inboard elevator servo-control rod
eye-ends for cracking, in accordance with the
instructions of Airbus All Operators Telex
(AOT) A320–27A1186, Revision 04, dated
April 3, 2009.
(i) Within 1,500 flight cycles or 200 days
after the effective date of this AD, whichever
occurs first.
(ii) Within 1,500 flight cycles or 200 days

cprice-sewell on DSKDVH8Z91PROD with RULES
SUMMARY: This rule establishes, amends,
suspends, or revokes Standard
Instrument Approach Procedures
(SIAPs) and associated Takeoff
Minimums and Obstacle Departure
Procedures for operations at certain
airports. These regulatory actions are
needed because of the adoption of new
or revised criteria, or because of changes
occurring in the National Airspace
System, such as the commissioning of
new navigational facilities, adding new
obstacles, or changing air traffic
requirements. These changes are
designed to provide safe and efficient
use of the navigable airspace and to
promote safe flight operations under
instrument flight rules at the affected
airports.
DATES: This rule is effective August 18,
2009. The compliance date for each
SIAP, associated Takeoff Minimums,
and ODP is specified in the amendatory
provisions.
The incorporation by reference of
certain publications listed in the
regulations is approved by the Director
of the Federal Register as of August 18,
2009.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule
amends Title 14, Code of Federal
Regulations, Part 97 (14 CFR part 97) by
amending the referenced SIAPs. The
complete regulatory description of each
SIAP is listed on the appropriate FAA
Form 8260, as modified by the National
Flight Data Center (FDC)/Permanent
Notice to Airmen (P–NOTAM), and is
incorporated by reference in the
amendment under 5 U.S.C. 552(a), 1
CFR part 51, and § 97.20 of Title 14 of
the Code of Federal Regulations.
The large number of SIAPs, their
complex nature, and the need for a
special format make their verbatim
publication in the Federal Register
expensive and impractical. Further,
airmen do not use the regulatory text of
the SIAPs, but refer to their graphic
depiction on charts printed by
publishers of aeronautical materials.
Thus, the advantages of incorporation
by reference are realized and
publication of the complete description
of each SIAP contained in FAA form
documents is unnecessary. This
amendment provides the affected CFR
sections and specifies the types of SIAP
and the corresponding effective dates.
This amendment also identifies the
airport and its location, the procedure
and the amendment number.
The Rule
Frm 00034
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 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. 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.

Navigation (air).
Issued in Washington, DC on August 7,

John M. Allen,
Director, Flight Standards Service.
Adoption of the Amendment
Accordingly, pursuant to the authority
delegated to me, Title 14, Code of
Federal Regulations, Part 97, 14 CFR
part 97, is amended by amending
Standard Instrument Approach
Procedures, effective at 0901 UTC on
the dates specified, as follows:
■
This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is
effective upon publication of each
separate SIAP as amended in the
transmittal. For safety and timeliness of
change considerations, this amendment
incorporates only specific changes
contained for each SIAP as modified by
FDC/P–NOTAMs.
The SIAPs, as modified by FDC P–
NOTAM, and contained in this
amendment are based on the criteria
contained in the U.S. Standard for
Terminal Instrument Procedures
(TERPS). In developing these changes to
SIAPs, the TERPS criteria were applied
only to specific conditions existing at
the affected airports. All SIAP
amendments in this rule have been
previously issued by the FAA in a FDC
NOTAM as an emergency action of
immediate flight safety relating directly
to published aeronautical charts. The
circumstances which created the need
for all these SIAP amendments requires
making them effective in less than 30
days.
PO 00000
Because of the close and immediate
relationship between these SIAPs and
safety in air commerce, I find that notice
and public procedure before adopting
these SIAPs are impracticable and
contrary to the public interest and,
where applicable, that good cause exists
for making these SIAPs effective in less
than 30 days.

Monroney Aeronautical Center, 6500 South MacArthur Blvd., Oklahoma
City, OK 73169 (Mail Address: P.O. Box 25082 Oklahoma City, OK 73125)
telephone: (405) 954-4164.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule amends Title 14, Code of Federal
Regulations, Part 97 (14 CFR part 97) by amending the referenced SIAPs.
The complete regulatory description of each SIAP is listed on the
appropriate FAA Form 8260, as modified by the National Flight Data
Center (FDC)/Permanent Notice to Airmen (P-NOTAM), and is incorporated
by reference in the amendment under 5 U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and
Sec. 97.20 of Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations.
The large number of SIAPs, their complex nature, and the need for a
special format make their verbatim publication in the Federal Register
expensive and impractical. Further, airmen do not use the regulatory
text of the SIAPs, but refer to their graphic depiction on charts
printed by publishers of aeronautical materials. Thus, the advantages
of incorporation by reference are realized and publication of the
complete description of each SIAP contained in FAA form documents is
unnecessary. This amendment provides the affected CFR sections and
specifies the types of SIAP and the corresponding effective dates. This
amendment also identifies the airport and its location, the procedure
and the amendment number.
The Rule
This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is effective upon publication of
each separate SIAP as amended in the transmittal. For safety and
timeliness of change considerations, this amendment incorporates only
specific changes contained for each SIAP as modified by FDC/P-NOTAMs.
The SIAPs, as modified by FDC P-NOTAM, and contained in this
amendment are based on the criteria contained in the U.S. Standard for
Terminal Instrument Procedures (TERPS). In developing these changes to
SIAPs, the TERPS criteria were applied only to specific conditions
existing at the affected airports. All SIAP amendments in this rule
have been previously issued by the FAA in a FDC NOTAM as an emergency
action of immediate flight safety relating directly to published
aeronautical charts. The circumstances which created the need for all
these SIAP amendments requires making them effective in less than 30
days.
Because of the close and immediate relationship between these SIAPs
and safety in air commerce, I find that notice and public procedure
before adopting these SIAPs are impracticable and contrary to the
public interest and, where applicable, that good cause exists for
making these SIAPs effective in less than 30 days.
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 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. 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.
