ACTION: Supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM); reopening of comment period. AGENCY: We are revising an earlier proposed airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above. That NPRM proposed to retain the inspection requirements of AD 2009–09–09 and add a terminating action for the repetitive inspection requirements. That NPRM resulted from the manufacturer developing a modification that, when incorporated, would terminate the repetitive inspections required by AD 2009–09–09. Since we issued the earlier NPRM, the manufacturer revised the service information to include additional airplane serial numbers into the Effectivity section and revised the modification kit instructions. This action revises that NPRM by adding airplanes to the Applicability section and incorporating new service information. We are proposing this supplemental NPRM to retain the inspection requirements of AD 2009– 09–09 and add a terminating action for the repetitive inspection requirements using the revised service information. Since these actions impose an additional burden over that proposed in the NPRM, we are reopening the comment period to allow the public the chance to comment on these proposed changes. DATES: We must receive comments on this supplemental NPRM by December 13, 2010.

E:\FR\FM\27OCP1.SGM 27OCP1 66010 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 207 / Wednesday, October 27, 2010 / Proposed Rules Discussion We issued an NPRM to amend 14 CFR part 39 to include an airworthiness directive (AD) that would apply to certain Cessna Aircraft Company (Cessna) Models LC40–550FG, LC41– 550FG, and LC42–550FG airplanes. That NPRM was published in the Federal Register on December 17, 2009 (74 FR 66927). That NPRM proposed to supersede AD 2009–09–09 (74 FR 19873, April 30, 2009) with a new AD that would retain the inspection requirements of AD 2009–09–09 and add a terminating action for the repetitive inspection requirements. Actions Since Previous NPRM Was Issued Since we issued the previous NPRM, the manufacturer revised the service information to include additional airplane serial numbers into the Effectivity section and revised the modification kit instructions. requirements of AD 2009–09–09 and adding a terminating action for the repetitive inspection requirements using the revised service information. Cessna has issued Single Engine Service Bulletin SB09–27–01, Revision 3, dated July 20, 2010, which describes procedures for repetitively inspecting the rudder hinges and the rudder hinge brackets for damage, i.e., cracking, deformation, and discoloration. The service information also describes procedures for incorporating Cessna Single Engine Modification Kit MK400– 07–01A, dated July 20, 2010, which when incorporated, will terminate the required repetitive inspections. Comments We gave the public the opportunity to comment on the original NPRM. We received no comments on that NPRM or on the determination of the cost to the public. FAA’s Determination We are proposing this supplemental NPRM because we evaluated all the relevant information and determined the unsafe condition described previously is likely to exist or develop in other products of the same type design. Certain changes described above expand the scope of the original NPRM. As a result, we have determined that it is necessary to reopen the comment period to provide additional opportunity for the public to comment on this supplemental NPRM. Costs of Compliance We estimate that this proposed AD affects 790 airplanes of U.S. registry. We estimate the following costs to comply with this proposed AD: Proposed Requirements of the Supplemental NPRM This supplemental NPRM would require retaining the inspection ESTIMATED COSTS Action Labor cost Inspecting the rudder hinges and rudder hinge brackets for damage with rudder removed (affects 570 airplanes). Inspecting the rudder hinges and rudder hinge brackets for damage without rudder removed (affects 570 airplanes).

Persons interested in being placed on a mailing list for future NPRMs should contact the FAA’s Office of Rulemaking (202) 267–9677, to request a copy of Advisory Circular No. 11–2A, Notice of Proposed Rulemaking Distribution System, which describes the application procedure. PO 00000 Frm 00019 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 66013 The Proposal This action proposes to amend Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR), part 71 by modifying Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface for standard instrument approach procedures at Horseshoe Bay Resort Airport, Horseshoe Bay, TX. Airspace reconfiguration is necessary due to the decommissioning of the Horseshoe Bay Resort NDB and the cancellation of the NDB approach. This action would also reflect the name change of the airport from Horseshoe Bay Airpark to Horseshoe Bay Resort Airport. Controlled airspace is necessary for the safety and management of IFR operations at the airport. Class E airspace areas are published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9U, dated August 18, 2010, and effective September 15, 2010, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace designation listed in this document would be published subsequently in the Order. The FAA has determined that this proposed 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, 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 would modify controlled airspace at Horseshoe Bay Resort Airport, Horseshoe Bay, TX. E:\FR\FM\27OCP1.SGM 27OCP1

Airworthiness Directives; Cessna Aircraft Company (Type 
Certificate Previously Held by Columbia Aircraft Manufacturing 
(Previously the Lancair Company)) Models LC40-550FG, LC41-550FG, and 
LC42-550FG Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM); reopening of 
comment period.

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

SUMMARY: We are revising an earlier proposed airworthiness directive 
(AD) for the products listed above. That NPRM proposed to retain the 
inspection requirements of AD 2009-09-09 and add a terminating action 
for the repetitive inspection requirements. That NPRM resulted from the 
manufacturer developing a modification that, when incorporated, would 
terminate the repetitive inspections required by AD 2009-09-09. Since 
we issued the earlier NPRM, the manufacturer revised the service 
information to include additional airplane serial numbers into the 
Effectivity section and revised the modification kit instructions. This 
action revises that NPRM by adding airplanes to the Applicability 
section and incorporating new service information. We are proposing 
this supplemental NPRM to retain the inspection requirements of AD 
2009-09-09 and add a terminating action for the repetitive inspection 
requirements using the revised service information. Since these actions 
impose an additional burden over that proposed in the NPRM, we are 
reopening the comment period to allow the public the chance to comment 
on these proposed changes.

DATES: We must receive comments on this supplemental NPRM by December 
13, 2010.

Discussion

    We issued an NPRM to amend 14 CFR part 39 to include an 
airworthiness directive (AD) that would apply to certain Cessna 
Aircraft Company (Cessna) Models LC40-550FG, LC41-550FG, and LC42-550FG 
airplanes. That NPRM was published in the Federal Register on December 
17, 2009 (74 FR 66927). That NPRM proposed to supersede AD 2009-09-09 
(74 FR 19873, April 30, 2009) with a new AD that would retain the 
inspection requirements of AD 2009-09-09 and add a terminating action 
for the repetitive inspection requirements.

Actions Since Previous NPRM Was Issued

    Since we issued the previous NPRM, the manufacturer revised the 
service information to include additional airplane serial numbers into 
the Effectivity section and revised the modification kit instructions.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to comment on the original NPRM. 
We received no comments on that NPRM or on the determination of the 
cost to the public.

FAA's Determination

    We are proposing this supplemental NPRM because we evaluated all 
the relevant information and determined the unsafe condition described 
previously is likely to exist or develop in other products of the same 
type design. Certain changes described above expand the scope of the 
original NPRM. As a result, we have determined that it is necessary to 
reopen the comment period to provide additional opportunity for the 
public to comment on this supplemental NPRM.

Proposed Requirements of the Supplemental NPRM

    This supplemental NPRM would require retaining the inspection 
requirements of AD 2009-09-09 and adding a terminating action for the 
repetitive inspection requirements using the revised service 
information.
    Cessna has issued Single Engine Service Bulletin SB09-27-01, 
Revision 3, dated July 20, 2010, which describes procedures for 
repetitively inspecting the rudder hinges and the rudder hinge brackets 
for damage, i.e., cracking, deformation, and discoloration. The service 
information also describes procedures for incorporating Cessna Single 
Engine Modification Kit MK400-07-01A, dated July 20, 2010, which when 
incorporated, will terminate the required repetitive inspections.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD affects 790 airplanes of U.S. 
registry. We estimate the following costs to comply with this proposed 
AD:

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

    We estimate the following costs to do any necessary repairs that 
would be required based on the results of the proposed inspection of 
the rudder hinge and the rudder brackets attachment hardware for 
correct thread engagement and the rudder travel. We have no way of 
determining the number of aircraft that might need these repairs:

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.

[[Page 66011]]

    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 
rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    We determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism 
implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would 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 this proposed 
regulation:
    (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),
    (3) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (4) 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.

Unsafe Condition

    (e) This AD is the result of reports received of a cracked lower 
rudder hinge bracket on two of the affected airplanes. We are 
issuing this AD to detect and correct damage, i.e., cracking, 
deformation, and discoloration, in the rudder hinges and the rudder 
hinge brackets, which could result in failure of the rudder. This 
failure could lead to loss of control.

Compliance

    (f) To address this problem, you must do the following, unless 
already done:
    (1) For Group 1 airplanes specified in paragraph (c) of this AD: 
Using the compliance times specified in table 1 of this AD, inspect 
the rudder hinges and rudder hinge brackets for damage, i.e., 
cracking, deformation, and discoloration. Do the inspections 
following Cessna Single Engine Service Bulletin SB09-27-01, dated 
April 13, 2009; Cessna Single Engine Service Bulletin SB09-27-01, 
Revision 2, dated November 23, 2009; or Cessna Single Engine Service
