[Federal Register Volume 76, Number 16 (Tuesday, January 25, 2011)] [Proposed Rules] [Pages 4260-4263] From the Federal Register Online via the Government Printing Office [www.gpo.gov] [FR Doc No: 2011-1439] [[Page 4260]] ======================================================================= ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Federal Aviation Administration 14 CFR Part 39 [Docket No. FAA-2011-0030; Directorate Identifier 2009-NM-183-AD] RIN 2120-AA64 Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Model A300 and A310 Series Airplanes, and Model A300 B4-600, B4-600R, and F4-600R Series Airplanes, and Model C4-605R Variant F Airplanes (Collectively Called A300-600 Series Airplanes) AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT. ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM). ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above that would supersede three existing ADs. This proposed 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. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as: The airworthiness limitations applicable to the Damage Tolerant Airworthiness Limitation Items (DT ALI) are currently listed in Airbus ALI Documents, which are referenced in the A300, A310, and A300-600 Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS) Part 2. Airbus has recently revised the ALI Documents, which have been approved by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA). * * * * * The actions contained in these revised documents, which introduce more restrictive maintenance requirements and/or airworthiness limitations, have been identified as mandatory actions for continued airworthiness. * * * The unsafe condition is fatigue cracking, damage, or corrosion in principal structural elements, which could result in reduced structural integrity of the airplane. The proposed AD would require actions that are intended to address the unsafe condition described in the MCAI. DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by March 11, 2011.

Discussion On February 6, 2007, we issued AD 2007-04-11, Amendment 39-14943 (72 FR 8604, February 27, 2007). That AD required actions intended to address an unsafe condition on Airbus Model A300 B2 and B4 series airplanes. On September 19, 2007, we issued AD 2007-20-03, Amendment 39-15213 (72 FR 54536, September 26, 2007). That AD required actions intended to address an unsafe condition on Airbus Model A300-600 series airplanes. On November 23, 2007, we issued AD 2007-25-02, Amendment 39-15283 (72 FR 69612, December 10, 2007). That AD required actions intended to address an unsafe condition on Airbus Model A310 series airplanes. Since we issued ADs 2007-04-11, 2007-20-03, and 2007-25-02, we have determined that the airworthiness limitations for these airplanes must be updated in order to adequately address the unsafe condition. The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the European Community, has issued EASA Airworthiness Directive 2009-0155, dated July 17, 2009 (referred to after this as ``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for the specified products. The MCAI states: The airworthiness limitations applicable to the Damage Tolerant Airworthiness Limitation Items (DT ALI) are currently listed in Airbus ALI Documents, which are referenced in the A300, A310, and A300-600 Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS) Part 2. Airbus has recently revised the ALI Documents, which have been approved by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA). --Airbus A300 ALI Document issue 04. --Airbus A310 ALI Document issue 07 and --Airbus A300-600 ALI Document issue 12 The actions contained in these revised documents, which introduce more restrictive maintenance requirements and/or airworthiness limitations, have been identified as mandatory actions for continued airworthiness. EASA issued ADs 2006-0071, 2006-0260, and 2006-0374 [which correspond to FAA ADs 2007-04-11, 2007-25-02, and 2007-20-03] to require compliance with the maintenance requirements and associated airworthiness limitations defined in previous issues of these Airbus ALI documents. For the reason described above, [the] EASA AD supersedes existing ADs 2006-0071, 2006-0260, and 2006-0374 and requires an update to the approved aircraft maintenance [[Page 4261]] programme and compliance with the maintenance requirements and associated airworthiness limitations defined in the Airbus ALI Documents listed above. The unsafe condition is fatigue cracking, damage, or corrosion in principal structural elements, which could result in reduced structural integrity of the airplane. The required actions include revising the Airworthiness Limitations section of the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness to incorporate new and revised structural inspections and inspection intervals. You may obtain further information by examining the MCAI in the AD docket. Relevant Service Information Airbus has issued A300-600 Airworthiness Limitation Items (ALI) Document AI/SE-M2/95A.1310/07, Issue 12, dated June 2008; A300 ALI Document AI/SE-M2/95A.1308/07, Issue 4, dated June 2008; and A310 ALI Document, AI/SE-M2/95A.1309/07, Issue 7, dated June 2008. The actions described in this service information are intended to correct the unsafe condition identified in the MCAI. FAA's Determination and Requirements of This Proposed 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 the State of Design Authority, we have been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and service information referenced above. We are proposing this AD because we evaluated all pertinent information and determined an unsafe condition exists and is likely to exist or develop on other products of the same type design. Differences Between This AD and the MCAI or Service Information We have reviewed the MCAI and related service information and, in general, agree with their substance. But we might have found it necessary to use different words from those in the MCAI to ensure the AD is clear for U.S. operators and is enforceable. In making these changes, we do not intend to differ substantively from the information provided in the MCAI and related service information. We might also have proposed different actions in this AD from those in the MCAI in order to follow FAA policies. Any such differences are highlighted in a Note within the proposed AD. Costs of Compliance Based on the service information, we estimate that this proposed AD would affect about 206 products of U.S. registry. The actions that are required by AD 2007-04-11, AD 2007-20-03, and AD 2007-25-02, and retained in this proposed AD, take about 1 work hour per product. The average labor rate is $85 per work-hour. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of those actions on U.S. operators to be $85 per product. We estimate that it would take about 1 work-hour per product to comply with the new requirements of this proposed AD. The average labor rate is $85 per work-hour. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of the proposed AD on U.S. operators to be $17,510, or $85 per product. 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 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); 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 regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to comply with this proposed AD and placed it in the AD docket. List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39 Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by reference, Safety. The Proposed Amendment Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the Administrator, the FAA proposes to amend 14 CFR part 39 as follows: PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES 1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows: Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701. Sec. 39.13 [Amended] 2. The FAA amends Sec. 39.13 by removing Amendment 39-14943 (72 FR 8604, February 27, 2007); Amendment 39-15213 (72 FR 54536, September 26, 2007); and Amendment 39-15283 (72 FR 69612, December 10, 2007); and adding the following new AD: Airbus: Docket No. FAA-2011-0030; Directorate Identifier 2009-NM- 183-AD. Comments Due Date (a) We must receive comments by March 11, 2011. Affected ADs (b) This AD supersedes AD 2007-04-11, Amendment 39-14943; AD 2007-20-03, Amendment 39-15213; and AD 2007-25-02, Amendment 39- 15283. Applicability (c) This AD applies to all Airbus model airplanes identified in paragraphs (c)(1), (c)(2), and (c)(3) of this AD, certificated in any category. (1) Model A300 B2-1A, B2-1C, B4-2C, B2K-3C, B4-103, B2-203, and B4-203 airplanes. (2) Model A310-203, -204, -221, -222, -304, -322, -324, and -325 airplanes. (3) Models A300 B4-601, B4-603, B4-620, B4-622, B4-605R, B4- 622R, F4-605R, and F4-622R airplanes, and Model A300 C4-605R Variant F airplanes. Note 1: This AD requires revisions to certain operator maintenance documents to include new inspections. Compliance with these inspections is required by 14 CFR 91.403(c). For airplanes that have been previously modified, altered, or repaired in the areas addressed by these inspections, the operator may not be able to accomplish the inspections described in the revisions. In this situation, to comply with 14 CFR 91.403(c), the operator must request approval for an alternative method of compliance according [[Page 4262]] to paragraph (t)(1) of this AD. The request should include a description of changes to the required inspections that will ensure the continued damage tolerance of the affected structure. The FAA has provided guidance for this determination in Advisory Circular (AC) 25-1529-1. Subject (d) Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Codes 52: Doors; 53: Fuselage; 54: Nacelles/pylons; 55: Stabilizers; 57: Wings; and 71: Powerplant (for Model A300-600 only). Reason (e) The mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) states: The airworthiness limitations applicable to the Damage Tolerant Airworthiness Limitation Items (DT ALI) are currently listed in Airbus ALI Documents, which are referenced in the A300, A310, and A300-600 Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS) Part 2. Airbus has recently revised the ALI Documents, which have been approved by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA). * * * * * The actions contained in these revised documents, which introduce more restrictive maintenance requirements and/or airworthiness limitations, have been identified as mandatory actions for continued airworthiness. * * * The unsafe condition is fatigue cracking, damage, or corrosion in principal structural elements, which could result in reduced structural integrity of the airplane. Compliance (f) You are responsible for having the actions required by this AD performed within the compliance times specified, unless the actions have already been done. Restatement of Certain Requirements of AD 2007-04-11 (g) Within one year after August 9, 1996 (the effective date of AD 96-13-11), replace the revision of the maintenance program with the inspections, inspection intervals, repairs, and replacements defined in ``Airbus Industrie A300 Supplemental Structural Inspection Document'' (SSID), Revision 2, dated June 1994 (``Revision 2 of the SSID''). Accomplish the actions specified in the service bulletins identified in Section 6, ``SB Reference List,'' Revision 2 of the SSID, at the times specified in those service bulletins. The actions are to be accomplished in accordance with those service bulletins. Accomplishing the initial ALI tasks required by paragraph(s) of this AD terminates the actions required by this paragraph. (1) For airplanes that have exceeded the threshold specified in any of the service bulletins identified in Section 6, ``SB Reference List,'' Revision 2 of the SSID: Accomplish the actions specified in those service bulletins within the grace period specified in that service bulletin. The grace period is to be measured from August 9, 1996. (2) For airplanes that have exceeded the threshold specified in any of the service bulletins identified in Section 6, ``SB Reference List,'' Revision 2 of the SSID, and a grace period is not specified in that service bulletin: Accomplish the actions specified in that service bulletin within 1,500 flight cycles after August 9, 1996. Revision of the Maintenance Inspection Program (h) For airplanes identified in paragraph (c)(1) of this AD: Within 12 months after April 3, 2007 (the effective date of AD 2007- 04-11), replace the revision of the maintenance program required by paragraph (g) of this AD with the supplemental structural inspections, inspection intervals, and repairs defined in Airbus A300 Airworthiness Limitation Items (ALI) Document SEM2/95A.1090/05, Issue 3, dated September 2005, as revised by Airbus A300 Temporary Revision (TR) 3.1, dated April 2006 (``Issue 3 of the ALI''). Accomplish the actions specified in Issue 3 of the ALI at the times specified in that ALI, except as provided by paragraph (i) of this AD. The actions must be accomplished in accordance with Issue 3 of the ALI. Accomplishing the initial ALI tasks required by paragraph (s) of this AD terminates the actions required by this paragraph. (i) For airplanes identified in paragraph (c)(1) of this AD that have exceeded the threshold or intervals specified in the Airbus A300 Airworthiness Limitation Items Document SEM2/95A.1090/05, Issue 3, dated September 2005 (``Issue 3 of the ALI''), for the application tolerance on the first interval for new and revised requirements and have exceeded 50 percent of the intervals specified in sections D and E of Issue 3 of the ALI: Do the actions within 6 months after April 3, 2007. Corrective Actions (j) Damaged, cracked, or corroded structure detected during any inspection done in accordance with the Airbus A300Airworthiness Limitation Items Document SEM2/95A.1090/05, Issue 3, dated September 2005 (``Issue 3 of the ALI''), must be repaired, before further flight, in accordance with Issue 3 of the ALI, except as provided by paragraph (k) of this AD; or other data meeting the certification basis of the airplane which is approved by the Manager, International Branch, ANM-116; or by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) (or its delegated agent). (k) Where the Airbus A300Airworthiness Limitation Items Document SEM2/95A.1090/05, Issue 3, dated September 2005, specifies contacting Airbus for appropriate action: Before further flight, repair the damaged, cracked, or corroded structure using a method approved by either the Manager, International Branch, ANM-116; or the EASA (or its delegated agent). No Fleet Sampling (l) Although Airbus A300 Airworthiness Limitation Items Document SEM2/95A.1090/05, Issue 3, dated September 2005, specifies to do a ``Sampling Concept'' in section B, this AD prohibits the use of such a sampling program and requires all affected airplanes of the fleet to be inspected. No Reporting (m) Although Airbus A300 Airworthiness Limitation Items Document SEM2/95A.1090/05, Issue 3, dated September 2005, specifies to submit certain information to the manufacturer, this AD does not include that requirement. Restatement of Requirements of AD 2007-20-03 Actions and Compliance (n) For airplanes identified in paragraph (c)(3) of this AD: Within 3 months after October 31, 2007 (the effective date AD 2007- 20-03), revise the ALS of the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness to incorporate Airbus A300-600 Airworthiness Limitation Items (ALI) Document AI/SE-M2/95A.0502/06, Issue 11, dated April 2006 (``Issue 11 of the ALI''). The tolerance (grace period) for compliance (specified in paragraph 2 of Section B-- Program Rules) with Issue 11 of the ALI is within 2,000 flight cycles after October 31, 2007, provided that none of the following is exceeded. Accomplishing the initial ALI tasks required by paragraph (s) of this AD terminates the actions required by this paragraph.

The manufacturer and EASA agree with this difference in compliance time. Other FAA AD Provisions (t) The following provisions also apply to this AD: (1) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs): The Manager, International Branch, ANM-116, Transport Airplane Directorate, 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: Dan Rodina, Aerospace Engineer, International Branch, ANM-116, FAA, Transport Airplane Directorate, 1601 Lind Avenue, SW., Renton, Washington 98057-3356; telephone (425) 227-2125; fax (425) 227-1149. Before using any approved AMOC, notify your appropriate principal inspector, or lacking a principal inspector, the manager of the local flight standards district office/certificate holding district office. The AMOC approval letter must specifically reference this AD. AMOCs approved previously in accordance with AD 2007-04-11, Amendment 39-14943; AD 2007-20-03, Amendment 39-15213; and AD 2007- 25-02, Amendment 39-15283; as applicable; are approved as AMOCs for the corresponding provisions of this AD. (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: A federal agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to a penalty for failure to comply with a collection of information subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act unless that collection of information displays a current valid OMB Control Number. The OMB Control Number for this information collection is 2120-0056. Public reporting for this collection of information is estimated to be approximately 5 minutes per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, completing and reviewing the collection of information.
