Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 85 / Tuesday, May 4, 2010 / Rules and Regulations
WReier-Aviles on DSKGBLS3C1PROD with RULES
left and right rear attach bolts following
instruction ‘‘5. Rear Attach Bolt
Replacement,’’ of Gippsland Aeronautics
Mandatory Service Bulletin SB–GA8–2002–
02, Issue 5, dated November 13, 2008.
Reworking the mating surfaces by spotfacing
is no longer acceptable. If the mating surfaces
are damaged, not square, or were previously
reworked by spotfacing the surface, before
further flight, replace the parts as specified
in Gippsland Aeronautics Mandatory Service
Bulletin SB–GA8–2002–02, Issue 5, dated
November 13, 2008.
(2) Within the next 10 hours TIS after May
10, 2010 (the effective date of this AD) and
repetitively thereafter at intervals not to
exceed 100 hours TIS or 12 months,
whichever occurs first, for all aircraft:
(i) Inspect the horizontal stabilizer
externally following instruction ‘‘2. External
Inspection (Lower flange, Stabilizer rear
spar),’’ of Gippsland Aeronautics Mandatory
Service Bulletin SB–GA8–2002–02, Issue 5,
dated November 13, 2008; and
(ii) Inspect the horizontal stabilizer
internally following instruction ‘‘4. Internal
Inspection,’’ of Gippsland Aeronautics
Mandatory Service Bulletin SB–GA8–2002–
02, Issue 5, dated November 13, 2008.
(3) If during the inspection required by
paragraph (g)(2) of this AD any excessive
local deflection or movement of the lower
skin surrounding the lower pivot attachment,
cracking, or working (loose) rivet is found,
before further flight, obtain an FAA-approved
repair scheme from the manufacturer and
incorporate this repair scheme. Due to FAA
policy, the repair scheme for crack damage
must include an immediate repair of the
crack, not a repetitive inspection. Continued
operational flight with un-repaired crack
damage is not permitted.
FAA AD Differences
Note: This AD differs from the MCAI and/
or service information as follows:
(1) ‘‘Requirement: 1. Daily Inspection
(Stabilizer attach bolt)’’ of the service
information requires a daily inspection of the
stabilizer attach bolt. The daily inspection is
not a requirement of this AD. Instead of the
daily inspection, we require you to perform,
within 10 hours TIS, ‘‘Requirement 3. Rear
Pivot Attachment Inspection’’ and
‘‘Requirement 5. Rear Attachment Bolt
Replacement’’ of the service information.
Compliance with requirement 3. and 5. is a
terminating action for the daily inspection,
and we are requiring these within 10 hours
TIS after the effective date of this AD.
(2) ‘‘Requirement: 2. External Inspection
(Lower flange, Stabilizer rear spar)’’ of the
service information does not specify any
action if excessive local deflection or
movement of lower skin, cracking, or
working (loose) rivet is found. We require
obtaining and incorporating an FAAapproved repair scheme from the
manufacturer before further flight.
(3) The MCAI does not state if further flight
with known cracks is allowed. FAA policy is
to not allow further flight with known cracks
in critical structure. We require that if any
cracks are found when accomplishing the
inspection required in paragraphs (f)(2) and
(g)(2) of this AD, you must repair the cracks
before further flight.
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 220001
(4) The service information does not state
that parts with spotfaced nut and bolt mating
surfaces require replacement. However, the
service information no longer allows
reworking of the mating surfaces by
spotfacing. We require that if any nut and
bolt surfaces were previously reworked by
spotfacing, you must replace the parts.
(5) The service information has not been
revised to include Model GA8–TC320
airplanes; however, the procedures still
apply to this model, and actions must be
done following the service information.
Other FAA AD Provisions
(h) 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
ATTN: Doug Rudolph, Aerospace Engineer,
FAA, Small Airplane Directorate, 901 Locust,
Room 301, Kansas City, Missouri 64106;
telephone: (816) 329–4059; fax: (816) 329–
4090. Before using any approved AMOC on
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 FAAapproved 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
approved the information collection
requirements and has assigned OMB Control
Number 2120–0056.

Amendment of Class E Airspace;
Mapleton, IA
AGENCY: Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
SUMMARY: This action amends Class E
airspace for Mapleton, IA, adding
additional controlled airspace to
accommodate Area Navigation (RNAV)
Standard Instrument Approach
Procedures (SIAPs) at James G. Whiting
Memorial Field Airport, Mapleton, IA.
The FAA is taking this action to
enhance the safety and management of
Instrument Flight Rule (IFR) operations
at the airport.
DATES: Effective date 0901 UTC, July 29,
2010. The Director of the Federal
Register approves this incorporation by
reference action under 1 CFR part 51,
subject to the annual revision of FAA
Order 7400.9 and publication of
conforming amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
On February 10, 2010, the FAA
published in the Federal Register a
notice of proposed rulemaking to amend
Class E airspace for Mapleton, IA,
reconfiguring controlled airspace at
James G. Whiting Memorial Field
Airport (75 FR 6595) Docket No. FAA–
2009–1155. Interested parties were
invited to participate in this rulemaking
effort by submitting written comments
on the proposal to the FAA. No
comments were received. Class E
airspace designations are published in
paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9T
signed August 27, 2009, and effective
September 15, 2009, 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 action amends Title 14 Code of
Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by
amending Class E airspace for the
Mapleton, IA area, adding additional

controlled airspace extending upward
from 700 feet above the surface to
accommodate SIAPs at James G.
Whiting Memorial Field Airport. This
action is necessary for the safety and
management of IFR operations at the
airport.
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. Therefore, this regulation: (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, when
promulgated, 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 U.S. 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
I, section 40103. Under that section, the
FAA is charged with prescribing
regulations to assign the use of airspace
necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft
and the efficient use of airspace. This
regulation is within the scope of that
authority as it amends controlled
airspace at James G. Whiting Memorial
Field Airport, Mapleton, IA.

Adoption of the Amendment
