ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
We are adopting a new
airworthiness directive (AD) for all
ATR—GIE Avions de Transport
´
Regional Model ATR42 and ATR72
airplanes. This AD was prompted by
new occurrences of certain cracked
main landing gear (MLG) rear hinge
pins. This AD requires identifying the
serial number and part number of the
MLG rear hinge pins, and replacing pins
or the MLG if necessary. We are issuing
this AD to detect and correct cracked
rear hinge pins, which could lead to
MLG structural failure, possibly
resulting in collapse of the MLG and
consequent injury to the occupants of
the airplane.
DATES: This AD becomes effective
December 29, 2015. The Director of the
Federal Register approved the
incorporation by reference of certain
publications listed in this AD as of
December 29, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Discussion
We issued a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 by adding an AD that would
apply to all ATR—GIE Avions de
´
Transport Regional Model ATR42 and
ATR72 airplanes. The NPRM published
in the Federal Register on April 10,
2015 (80 FR 19246).
The European Aviation Safety Agency
(EASA), which is the Technical Agent
for the Member States of the European
Union, has issued EASA Airworthiness
Directive 2014–0074, dated March 21,
2014 (referred to after this as the
Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness
Information, or ‘‘the MCAI’’), to correct
an unsafe condition for all ATR—GIE
´
Avions de Transport Regional Model
ATR42 and ATR72 airplanes. The MCAI
states:
mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with RULES
Prompted by cases of rupture of Main
Landing Gear (MLG) rear hinge pin part
number (P/N) D61000 encountered in service
in 1994 and 1996, DGAC France issued [an]
AD * * * for ATR 42 aeroplanes and
[another]AD * * * for ATR 72 aeroplanes to
require inspection and, depending on
findings, corrective action.
Since those [French] ADs were issued, new
occurrences of cracked rear hinge pin P/N
D61000 were reported on ATR72 MLG.
The result of subsequent investigation
revealed that the affected pins were subjected
to a non-detected thermal abuse done in
production during grinding process. Analysis
also showed that other MLG pin P/N’s could
be affected by the same nonconformity.
This condition, if not detected and
corrected, could lead to MLG structural
failure, possibly resulting in collapse of the
MLG and consequently injury to the
occupants of the aeroplane.
For the reasons described above, this
[EASA] AD requires inspection and,
depending on findings, replacement of
affected pins.
We reviewed the relevant data and
determined that air safety and the
public interest require adopting this AD
as proposed except for minor editorial
changes. We have determined that these
minor changes:
• Are consistent with the intent that
was proposed in the NPRM (80 FR
19246, April 10, 2015) for correcting the
unsafe condition; and
• Do not add any additional burden
upon the public than was already
proposed in the NPRM (80 FR 19246,
April 10, 2015).
Related Service Information Under 1
CFR Part 51
Messier-Bugatti-Dowty has issued the
following service information, which
describes procedures for inspecting the
MLG hinge pin.
• Service Bulletin 631–32–213, dated
December 16, 2013.
• Service Bulletin 631–32–214, dated
January 13, 2014.
• Service Bulletin 631–32–215, dated
January 13, 2014.
• Service Bulletin 631–32–216,
Revision 1, dated December 17, 2013.
• Service Bulletin 631–32–219, dated
March 3, 2014.
• Service Bulletin 631–32–220, dated
March 3, 2014.
This service information is reasonably
available because the interested parties
have access to it through their normal
course of business or by the means
identified in the ADDRESSES section of
this AD.
Costs of Compliance
You may examine the MCAI in the
AD docket on the Internet at https://
www.regulations.gov/#!documentDetail;
D=FAA-2015-0682-0002.
We estimate that this AD affects 81
airplanes of U.S. registry.
We also estimate that it will take
about 8 work-hours per product to
comply with the basic requirements of
this AD. The average labor rate is $85
per work-hour. Required parts will cost
about $16,000 per product. Based on
these figures, we estimate the cost of
this AD on U.S. operators to be
$1,351,080, or $16,680 per product.
According to the manufacturer, some
of the costs of this AD may be covered
under warranty, thereby reducing the
cost impact on affected individuals. We
do not control warranty coverage for
affected individuals. As a result, we
have included all costs in our cost
estimate.
Comments
Authority for This Rulemaking
We gave the public the opportunity to
participate in developing this AD. We
received no comments on the NPRM (80
FR 19246, April 10, 2015) or on the
determination of the cost to the public.
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.
Examining the AD Docket
You may examine the AD docket on
the Internet at https://www.regulations.
gov/#!docketDetail;D=FAA-2015-0682;
or in person at the Docket Management
Facility between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m.,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Discussion
We issued a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 by adding an AD that would
apply to all Airbus Model A318, A319,
A320, and A321 series airplanes. The
NPRM published in the Federal
Register on March 5, 2015 (80 FR
11960). The NPRM was prompted by a
determination that, in specific flight
conditions, the allowable load limits on
the vertical tail plane could be reached
and possibly exceeded. Exceeding
allowable load could result in
detachment of the vertical tail plane.
The NPRM proposed to require
modification of the pin programming of
the FWC to activate the SRIW logic; and
an inspection to determine the part
numbers of the FWC and the FAC, and
replacement of the FWC and FAC if
necessary. We are issuing this AD to
prevent detachment of the vertical tail
plane and consequent loss of control of
the airplane.
The European Aviation Safety Agency
(EASA), which is the Technical Agent

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all
ATR--GIE Avions de Transport R[eacute]gional Model ATR42 and ATR72
airplanes. This AD was prompted by new occurrences of certain cracked
main landing gear (MLG) rear hinge pins. This AD requires identifying
the serial number and part number of the MLG rear hinge pins, and
replacing pins or the MLG if necessary. We are issuing this AD to
detect and correct cracked rear hinge pins, which could lead to MLG
structural failure, possibly resulting in collapse of the MLG and
consequent injury to the occupants of the airplane.
DATES: This AD becomes effective December 29, 2015. The Director of the
Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of certain
publications listed in this AD as of December 29, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Discussion
We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to all ATR--GIE Avions de
Transport R[eacute]gional Model ATR42 and ATR72 airplanes. The NPRM
published in the Federal Register on April 10, 2015 (80 FR 19246).
The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA
Airworthiness Directive 2014-0074, dated March 21, 2014 (referred to
after this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or
``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for all ATR--GIE Avions
de Transport R[eacute]gional Model ATR42 and ATR72 airplanes. The MCAI
states:
Prompted by cases of rupture of Main Landing Gear (MLG) rear
hinge pin part number (P/N) D61000 encountered in service in 1994
and 1996, DGAC France issued [an] AD * * * for ATR 42 aeroplanes and
[another]AD * * * for ATR 72 aeroplanes to require inspection and,
depending on findings, corrective action.
Since those [French] ADs were issued, new occurrences of cracked
rear hinge pin P/N D61000 were reported on ATR72 MLG.
The result of subsequent investigation revealed that the
affected pins were subjected to a non-detected thermal abuse done in
production during grinding process. Analysis also showed that other
MLG pin P/N's could be affected by the same nonconformity.
This condition, if not detected and corrected, could lead to MLG
structural failure, possibly resulting in collapse of the MLG and
consequently injury to the occupants of the aeroplane.
For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD requires
inspection and, depending on findings, replacement of affected pins.
You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the Internet at https://www.regulations.gov/#!documentDetail;D=FAA-2015-0682-0002.
Comments
We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. We received no comments on the NPRM (80 FR 19246, April 10,
2015) or on the determination of the cost to the public.
Conclusion
We reviewed the relevant data and determined that air safety and
the public interest require adopting this AD as proposed except for
minor editorial changes. We have determined that these minor changes:
Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the
NPRM (80 FR 19246, April 10, 2015) for correcting the unsafe condition;
and
Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was
already proposed in the NPRM (80 FR 19246, April 10, 2015).
Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51
Messier-Bugatti-Dowty has issued the following service information,
which describes procedures for inspecting the MLG hinge pin.
Service Bulletin 631-32-213, dated December 16, 2013.
Service Bulletin 631-32-214, dated January 13, 2014.
Service Bulletin 631-32-215, dated January 13, 2014.
Service Bulletin 631-32-216, Revision 1, dated December
17, 2013.
Service Bulletin 631-32-219, dated March 3, 2014.
Service Bulletin 631-32-220, dated March 3, 2014.
This service information is reasonably available because the
interested parties have access to it through their normal course of
business or by the means identified in the ADDRESSES section of this
AD.
Costs of Compliance
We estimate that this AD affects 81 airplanes of U.S. registry.
We also estimate that it will take about 8 work-hours per product
to comply with the basic requirements of this AD. The average labor
rate is $85 per work-hour. Required parts will cost about $16,000 per
product. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of this AD on
U.S. operators to be $1,351,080, or $16,680 per product.
According to the manufacturer, some of the costs of this AD may be
covered under warranty, thereby reducing the cost impact on affected
individuals. We do not control warranty coverage for affected
individuals. As a result, we have included all costs in our cost
estimate.
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.
Examining the AD Docket
You may examine the AD docket on the Internet at https://www.regulations.gov/#!docketDetail;D=FAA-2015-0682; or in person at the
Docket Management Facility between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through
