ACTION: Notice recommending voluntary change to securing existing ELTs as specified in Technical Standard Order (TSO)-C126b, 406MHz Emergency Locator Transmitter. AGENCY: FAA evaluated five separate courses of action with regard to the airworthiness approvals for securing ELTs with hook and loop fasteners. This notice summarizes the inadequacies of hook and loop fasteners as a means for securing ELTs, and avoids placing an undue burden on aircraft owners while SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00081 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 12697 acknowledging the voluntary efforts of ELT manufacturers to improve designs. DATES: Comments must be received on or before April 9, 2015. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Charisse R.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background Investigations of some recent aircraft accidents disclosed that ELTs mounted with hook and loop fasteners became dislodged from their mounting trays on impact. The separation of those ELTs from their mounting trays caused their antenna connection to sever, thus rendering the ELTs to be ineffective and unable to perform their intended function. The FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (Pub. L. 112–95), Section 347(b)(1), required the FAA to determine if the ELT mounting requirements and retention tests specified by TSO–C91a and TSO–C126 were adequate to assess retention capabilities in ELT designs. Based on the determination, the Act, in Section 347(b)(2), required the Administrator to make any necessary revisions to the requirements and retention test to ensure ELTs remained properly retained in the event of an aircraft accident. The FAA evaluated the mounting requirements and retention tests specified in TSO–C91a, TSO–C126, and TSO–C126a. After this evaluation, the FAA determined these standards did not adequately address the use of hook and loop fasteners. Hook and loop fasteners were not an acceptable means of compliance to meet the mounting and retention requirements of the ELT TSOs. While the evaluation of installation approval using hook and loop fasteners may meet the TSO requirements for retention forces in laboratory conditions, accident investigations found these fasteners did not perform their intended function. FAA Concerns The agency identified the following concerns after completing its evaluation of the use of hook and loop fasteners: (1) Hook and loop fasteners fail to retain the ELT when insufficient tension is applied to close the fastener. There is no repeatable method for installation and no method to evaluate the tension of the hook and loop fastener. The allowance for pilots to secure ELTs to the aircraft when changing ELT batteries E:\FR\FM\10MRN1.SGM 10MRN1
