caution lights illumination when flying with
the autopilot engaged. Investigations revealed
that loose rivets in the torque tube assemblies
caused relative motion between the crank
arms and torque tubes.
Loose rivets could result in excessive wear
and subsequent significant backlash in the
driving crank arms. This condition, if left
uncorrected, will progressively get worse and
degrade the controllability of the aeroplane.
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.
Inspection for Part Number

The Proposal
This action proposes to amend Title
14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 71 by revising Class E2 and E5
airspace at the Talkeetna Airport in
Talkeetna, AK, to accommodate the
revision of four SIAPs and the ODP at
the Talkeetna Airport. This Class E
airspace would provide adequate
controlled airspace upward from the
surface (E2) to 700 feet and 1,200 feet
(E5) above the surface, for the safety and
management of IFR operations at the
Talkeetna Airport.
The Class E2 airspace designated as
surface areas and the Class E5 airspace
designated as 700/1200 foot transition
areas are published in paragraphs 6002
and 6005, respectively, in FAA Order
7400.9U, Airspace Designations and
Reporting Points, signed August 18,
2010, and effective September 15, 2010,
which is incorporated by reference in 14
CFR 71.1. The airspaces listed in this
document would be subsequently
published in that 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.
Because 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 United States 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 1, section 40103,
Sovereignty and use of airspace. Under
that section, the FAA is charged with
prescribing regulations to ensure the
safe and efficient use of the navigable
airspace. This regulation is within the
scope of that authority because it
proposes to revise Class E airspace at
the Talkeetna Airport, Talkeetna, AK,
and represents the FAA’s continuing
effort to safely and efficiently use the
navigable airspace.

On April
28, 2011 the Commission published in
the Federal Register a notice of

Elsewhere today in the Federal Register,

certain capital requirements for futures

Because the proposed capital and
margin rulemakings are interrelated, the
Commission now is extending the
comment period for the proposed
margin regulations so that the comment
periods of each proposed rulemaking
will run concurrently. The extension
period will provide commenters with a
full opportunity to review each of the
proposed rulemakings together before
commenting on either. As noted above,
the Commission additionally has

the ODP at the Talkeetna Airport. This Class E airspace would provide
adequate controlled airspace upward from the surface (E2) to 700 feet
and 1,200 feet (E5) above the surface, for the safety and management of
IFR operations at the Talkeetna Airport.
The Class E2 airspace designated as surface areas and the Class E5
airspace designated as 700/1200 foot transition areas are published in
paragraphs 6002 and 6005, respectively, in FAA Order 7400.9U, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, signed August 18, 2010, and
effective September 15, 2010, which is incorporated by reference in 14
CFR 71.1. The airspaces listed in this document would be subsequently
published in that 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. Because 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 United States 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 1, section 40103, Sovereignty and use of
airspace. Under that section, the FAA is charged with prescribing
regulations to ensure the safe and efficient use of the navigable
airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority because
it proposes to revise Class E airspace at the Talkeetna Airport,
Talkeetna, AK, and represents the FAA's continuing effort to safely and
efficiently use the navigable airspace.
