SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Discussion On January 12, 2015, we issued AD 2015–02–04, Amendment 39–18071 (80 E:\FR\FM\14APR1.SGM 14APR1 19877 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 71 / Tuesday, April 14, 2015 / Rules and Regulations FR 5034, January 30, 2015). AD 2015– 02–04 applied to certain Dassault Aviation Model MYSTERE–FALCON 50 airplanes. AD 2015–02–04 was prompted by a report of an untimely and intermittent indication of slat activity due to chafing of the electrical wiring under the glare shield and behind the flight deck front panel. AD 2015–02–04 required installing two protective plates between the electrical wiring under the glare shield and the engine fire pull handles. We issued AD 2015–02–04 to prevent chafing of the electrical wiring, which could result in a short circuit and generation of smoke in the cockpit, potential loss of several functions essential for safe flight, and consequent reduced controllability of the airplane. AD 2015–02–04, Amendment 39– 18071 (80 FR 5034, January 30, 2015), corresponds to Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information (MCAI) European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) Airworthiness Directive 2014– 0024, dated January 23, 2014. You may examine the MCAI on the Internet at https://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA–2015– 0825. Since we issued AD 2015–02–04, Amendment 39–18071 (80 FR 5034, January 30, 2015), we have determined that the published version of AD 2015– 02–04 incorrectly identified the AD number in the Product Identification line as ‘‘AD 2014–02–04.’’ In order to refer to the correct AD number, this AD replaces ‘‘AD 2014–02–04’’ with ‘‘AD 2015–02–04’’ in the Product Identification line in the regulatory text. FAA’s Determination and Requirements of This 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 issuing this AD because we evaluated all pertinent information and determined the unsafe condition exists and is likely to exist or develop on other products of the same type design. FAA’s Determination of the Effective Date An unsafe condition exists that requires the immediate adoption of this AD. The FAA has found that the risk to the flying public justifies waiving notice and comment prior to adoption of this rule because of the urgency to correct the AD number in the regulatory text to avoid non-compliance. Therefore, we determined that notice and opportunity for prior public comment are unnecessary. Comments Invited This AD is a final rule that involves requirements affecting flight safety, and we did not precede it by notice and opportunity for public comment. We invite you to send any written relevant data, views, or arguments about this AD. Send your comments to an address listed under the ADDRESSES section. Include ‘‘Docket No. FAA–2015–0825; Directorate Identifier 2015–NM–035– AD’’ at the beginning of your comments. We specifically invite comments on the overall regulatory, economic, environmental, and energy aspects of this AD. We will consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend this AD because of those comments. We will post all comments we receive, without change, to https:// www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide. We will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal contact we receive about this AD. Costs of Compliance We estimate that this AD affects 250 airplanes of U.S. registry. The actions required by AD 2015–02– 04, Amendment 39–18071 (80 FR 5034, January 30, 2015), and retained in this AD are as follows: Action Labor cost Parts cost Cost per product Cost on U.S. operators Retained installation from AD 2015–02–04, Amendment 39–18071 (80 FR 5034, January 30, 2015). 26 work-hours × $85 per hour = $2,210. $96 $2,306 $576,500 This AD adds no additional economic burden. asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with RULES 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 VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:01 Apr 13, 2015 Jkt 235001 that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this rulemaking action. on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. Regulatory Findings We determined that this AD will not have federalism implications under Executive Order 13132. This AD will 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 that this AD: 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.

Airworthiness Directives; Dassault Aviation Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of 
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Final rule; request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: We are superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2015-02-04 for 
certain Dassault Aviation Model MYSTERE-FALCON 50 airplanes. AD 2015-
02-04 required installing two protective plates between the electrical 
wiring under the glare shield and the engine fire pull handles. This 
new AD continues to require installing two protective plates between 
the electrical wiring under the glare shield and the engine fire pull 
handles. This AD was prompted by our determination that the published 
version of AD 2015-02-04 incorrectly identified the AD number as ``AD 
2014-02-04'' in a certain paragraph. We are issuing this AD to prevent 
chafing of the electrical wiring, which could result in a short circuit 
and generation of smoke in the cockpit, potential loss of several 
functions essential for safe flight, and consequent reduced 
controllability of the airplane.

DATES: This AD becomes effective April 29, 2015.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by 
reference of a certain publication listed in this AD as of March 6, 
2015 (80 FR 5034, January 30, 2015).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    On January 12, 2015, we issued AD 2015-02-04, Amendment 39-18071 
(80

[[Page 19877]]

FR 5034, January 30, 2015). AD 2015-02-04 applied to certain Dassault 
Aviation Model MYSTERE-FALCON 50 airplanes. AD 2015-02-04 was prompted 
by a report of an untimely and intermittent indication of slat activity 
due to chafing of the electrical wiring under the glare shield and 
behind the flight deck front panel. AD 2015-02-04 required installing 
two protective plates between the electrical wiring under the glare 
shield and the engine fire pull handles. We issued AD 2015-02-04 to 
prevent chafing of the electrical wiring, which could result in a short 
circuit and generation of smoke in the cockpit, potential loss of 
several functions essential for safe flight, and consequent reduced 
controllability of the airplane.
    AD 2015-02-04, Amendment 39-18071 (80 FR 5034, January 30, 2015), 
corresponds to Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information (MCAI) 
European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) Airworthiness Directive 2014-
0024, dated January 23, 2014. You may examine the MCAI on the Internet 
at https://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. 
FAA-2015-0825.
    Since we issued AD 2015-02-04, Amendment 39-18071 (80 FR 5034, 
January 30, 2015), we have determined that the published version of AD 
2015-02-04 incorrectly identified the AD number in the Product 
Identification line as ``AD 2014-02-04.'' In order to refer to the 
correct AD number, this AD replaces ``AD 2014-02-04'' with ``AD 2015-
02-04'' in the Product Identification line in the regulatory text.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This 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 issuing this AD because we 
evaluated all pertinent information and determined the unsafe condition 
exists and is likely to exist or develop on other products of the same 
type design.

FAA's Determination of the Effective Date

    An unsafe condition exists that requires the immediate adoption of 
this AD. The FAA has found that the risk to the flying public justifies 
waiving notice and comment prior to adoption of this rule because of 
the urgency to correct the AD number in the regulatory text to avoid 
non-compliance. Therefore, we determined that notice and opportunity 
for prior public comment are unnecessary.

Comments Invited

    This AD is a final rule that involves requirements affecting flight 
safety, and we did not precede it by notice and opportunity for public 
comment. We invite you to send any written relevant data, views, or 
arguments about this AD. Send your comments to an address listed under 
the ADDRESSES section. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2015-0825; Directorate 
Identifier 2015-NM-035-AD'' at the beginning of your comments. We 
specifically invite comments on the overall regulatory, economic, 
environmental, and energy aspects of this AD. We will consider all 
comments received by the closing date and may amend this AD because of 
those comments.
    We will post all comments we receive, without change, to https://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide. We 
will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal contact we 
receive about this AD.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD affects 250 airplanes of U.S. registry.
    The actions required by AD 2015-02-04, Amendment 39-18071 (80 FR 
5034, January 30, 2015), and retained in this AD are as follows:

    This AD adds no additional economic burden.

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 AD will not have federalism implications 
under Executive Order 13132. This AD will 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 that this AD:
    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.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

    Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by 
reference, Safety.

Adoption of the Amendment

    Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the 
Administrator, the FAA amends 14 CFR part 39 as follows:

PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES

0
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]

0
2. The FAA amends Sec.  39.13 by removing airworthiness directive (AD)

[[Page 19878]]

2015-02-04, Amendment 39-18071 (80 FR 5034, January 30, 2015), and 
adding the following new AD:

2015-08-02 Dassault Aviation: Amendment 39-18138. Docket No. FAA-
2015-0825; Directorate Identifier 2015-NM-035-AD.

(a) Effective Date

    This AD becomes effective April 29, 2015.

(b) Affected ADs

    This AD replaces AD 2015-02-04, Amendment 39-18071 (80 FR 5034, 
January 30, 2015).

(c) Applicability

    This AD applies to Dassault Aviation Model MYSTERE-FALCON 50 
airplanes, certificated in any category, as identified in paragraphs 
(c)(1) and (c)(2) of this AD.
    (1) Airplanes with manufacturer serial numbers 5, 7, 27, 30, 34, 
36, 78, 132, and 251 through 352 inclusive.
    (2) Airplanes with manufacturer serial numbers 2 through 250 
inclusive, having Honeywell (formerly Allied Signal, Garrett 
AiResearch) TFE731-40-1C engines modified by Dassault Aviation 
Service Bulletin F50-280.

(d) Subject

    Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code 24, Electrical 
Power.

(e) Reason

    This AD was prompted by a report of an untimely and intermittent 
indication of slat activity due to chafing of the electrical wiring 
under the glare shield and behind the flight deck front panel, and 
also our determination that the published version of AD 2015-02-04, 
Amendment 39-18071 (80 FR 5034, January 30, 2015), incorrectly 
identified the AD number as ``AD 2014-02-04.'' We are issuing this 
AD to prevent chafing of the electrical wiring, which could result 
in a short circuit and generation of smoke in the cockpit, potential 
loss of several functions essential for safe flight, and consequent 
reduced controllability of the airplane.

(f) Compliance

    Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, 
unless already done.

(g) Retained Installation of Protective Plates, With No Changes

    This paragraph restates the requirements of paragraph (g) of AD 
2015-02-04, Amendment 39-18071 (80 FR 5034, January 30, 2015), with 
no changes. Within 74 months after March 6, 2015 (the effective date 
of AD 2015-02-04), install two Rilsan protective plates between the 
glare shield electrical wiring and the engine fire pull handles, in 
accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Dassault Service 
Bulletin F50-530, dated November 12, 2013.
