Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking
(NPRM).
AGENCY:
We propose to adopt a new
airworthiness directive (AD) for all
Fokker Services B.V. Model F.28 Mark
1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000 airplanes.
This proposed AD was prompted by a
design review, that revealed a hot spot
may develop in the main fuel tank
under certain failure conditions of the
solenoid of the level control pilot valve,
the reed switch of the main tank
overflow valve, the level float switch of
the collector tank, or the solenoid of the
main tank fueling shut-off valve. This
proposed AD would require installing
fuses in the wiring of the solenoid of the
level control pilot valve, the reed switch
of the main tank overflow valve, the
level float switch of the collector tank,
and the solenoid of the main tank
fueling shut-off valve, as applicable.
This proposed AD would also require
accomplishing concurrent actions and
revising the airplane maintenance or
inspection program, as applicable, by
incorporating fuel airworthiness
limitation items and critical design
configuration control limitations
(CDCCLs). We are proposing this AD to
prevent an ignition source in the main
fuel tank vapor space, which could
result in a fuel tank explosion and
consequent loss of the airplane.
DATES: We must receive comments on
this proposed AD by March 7, 2016.
ADDRESSES: You may send comments,
using the procedures found in 14 CFR
11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following

Discussion
The European Aviation Safety Agency
(EASA), which is the Technical Agent
for the Member States of the European
Union, has issued EASA Airworthiness
Directive 2014–0107, dated May 7, 2014
(referred to after this the Mandatory
Continuing Airworthiness Information,
or ‘‘the MCAI’’), to correct an unsafe
condition for all Fokker Services B.V.
Model F.28 Mark 1000, 2000, 3000, and
4000 airplanes. The MCAI states:
Prompted by an accident * * *, the
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
published Special Federal Aviation
Regulation (SFAR) 88 [(66 FR 23086, May 7,
2001)], and the Joint Aviation Authorities
(JAA) published Interim Policy INT/POL/25/
12.
The review conducted by Fokker Services
on the Fokker F28 design in response to these
regulations revealed that, under certain
failure conditions of the solenoid of the level
control pilot valve, the main tank overflow
valve reed switch, the collector tank level
float switch or the main tank fuelling shutoff valve solenoid, a hot spot may develop in
the tank.
This condition, if not corrected, could
create an ignition source in the main tank
vapour space, possibly resulting in a fuel
tank explosion and consequent loss of the
aeroplane.
To address this potential unsafe condition,
Fokker Services developed a modification to
the wiring (installation of fuses) of the
affected components.
For the reasons described above, this AD
requires the installation of fuses in the wiring
of the affected components [the solenoid of
the level control pilot valve, the reed switch
of the main tank overflow valve, the level
float switch of the collector tank, and the
solenoid of the main tank fuelling shut-off
valve] and, subsequently, the implementation
of the associated Critical Design
Configuration Control Limitations (CDCCL)
items [and revision of the maintenance or
inspection program].
More information on this subject can be
found in Fokker Services All Operators
Message AOF28.038#02.
You may examine the MCAI in the
AD docket on the Internet at https://
www.regulations.gov by searching for
and locating Docket No. FAA–2015–
8472.
The FAA has examined the
underlying safety issues involved in fuel
tank explosions on several large
transport airplanes, including the
adequacy of existing regulations, the
service history of airplanes subject to
those regulations, and existing
maintenance practices for fuel tank
systems. As a result of those findings,
we issued a regulation titled ‘‘Transport
Airplane Fuel Tank System Design
Review, Flammability Reduction and
Maintenance and Inspection
Requirements’’ (66 FR 23086, May 7,
PO 00000
Frm 00011
Fmt 4702
Sfmt 4702
3043
2001). In addition to new airworthiness
standards for transport airplanes and
new maintenance requirements, this
rule included Special Federal Aviation
Regulation No. 88 (‘‘SFAR 88,’’
Amendment 21–78, and subsequent
Amendments 21–82 and 21–83).
Among other actions, SFAR 88 (66 FR
23086, May 7, 2001) requires certain
type design (i.e., type certificate (TC)
and supplemental type certificate (STC))
holders to substantiate that their fuel
tank systems can prevent ignition
sources in the fuel tanks. This
requirement applies to type design
holders for large turbine-powered
transport airplanes and for subsequent
modifications to those airplanes. It
requires them to perform design reviews
and to develop design changes and
maintenance procedures if their designs
do not meet the new fuel tank safety
standards. As explained in the preamble
to the rule, we intended to adopt
airworthiness directives to mandate any
changes found necessary to address
unsafe conditions identified as a result
of these reviews.
In evaluating these design reviews, we
have established four criteria intended
to define the unsafe conditions
associated with fuel tank systems that
require corrective actions. The
percentage of operating time during
which fuel tanks are exposed to
flammable conditions is one of these
criteria. The other three criteria address
the failure types under evaluation:
Single failures, single failures in
combination with a latent condition(s),
and in-service failure experience. For all
four criteria, the evaluations included
consideration of previous actions taken
that may mitigate the need for further
action.
The Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA)
has issued a regulation that is similar to
SFAR 88 (66 FR 23086, May 7, 2001).
(The JAA is an associated body of the
European Civil Aviation Conference
(ECAC) representing the civil aviation
regulatory authorities of a number of
European States who have agreed to cooperate in developing and
implementing common safety regulatory
standards and procedures.) Under this
regulation, the JAA stated that all
members of the ECAC that hold type
certificates for transport category
airplanes are required to conduct a
design review against explosion risks.
We have determined that the actions
identified in this AD are necessary to
reduce the potential of ignition sources
inside fuel tanks, which, in combination
with flammable fuel vapors, could result
in fuel tank explosions and consequent
loss of the airplane.

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 these same
type designs.
This AD requires revisions to certain
operator maintenance documents to
include new actions (e.g., inspections)
and/or CDCCLs. Compliance with these
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:49 Jan 19, 2016
Jkt 238001
actions and/or CDCCLs is required by 14
CFR 91.403(c). For airplanes that have
been previously modified, altered, or
repaired in the areas addressed by this
AD, the operator may not be able to
accomplish the actions 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 to
paragraph (k)(1) of this AD. The request
should include a description of changes
to the required actions that will ensure
the continued operational safety of the
airplane.
Costs of Compliance
We estimate that this proposed AD
affects 5 airplanes of U.S. registry.
We also estimate that it would take
about 21 work-hours per product to
comply with the basic requirements of
this proposed AD. The average labor
rate is $85 per work-hour. Required
parts would cost about $5,320 per
product. Based on these figures, we
estimate the cost of this proposed AD on
U.S. operators to be $35,525, or $7,105,
or per product.

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.
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.
§ 39.13
[Amended]
2. The FAA amends § 39.13 by adding
the following new airworthiness
directive (AD):
■
Fokker Services B.V.: Docket No. FAA–
2015–8472; Directorate Identifier 2014–
NM–106–AD.
(a) Comments Due Date
We must receive comments by March 7,
2016.
(b) Affected ADs
This AD affects AD 2011–17–03,
Amendment 39–16767 (76 FR 50115, August
12, 2011); and AD 2011–21–01, Amendment
39–16824 (76 FR 63156, October 12, 2011).
(c) Applicability
This AD applies to Fokker Services B.V.
Model F.28 Mark 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000
airplanes, certificated in any category, all
serial numbers.
Regulatory Findings
(d) Subject
Air Transport Association (ATA) of
America Code 28, Fuel.
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:
(e) Reason
This AD was prompted by a design review,
which revealed that a hot spot may develop
in the main fuel tank under certain failure
conditions of the solenoid of the level control
pilot valve, the reed switch of the main tank
overflow valve, the level float switch of the
collector tank, or the solenoid of the main
tank fueling shut-off valve. We are issuing
this AD to prevent an ignition source in the
main fuel tank vapor space, which could
result in a fuel tank explosion and
consequent loss of the airplane.

AGENCY:
We propose to supersede
Airworthiness Directive (AD) 95–21–09,
for all Airbus Model A300 series
airplanes, and Airbus Model A300 B4–
600, B4–600R, and F4–600R series
airplanes, and Model A300 C4–605R
Variant F airplanes (collectively called
Model A300–600 series airplanes). AD
95–21–09 currently requires repetitive
inspections for cracking of the No. 2 flap
beams, and replacement of the flap
beams, if necessary; and provides
optional modifications for extending
certain inspection thresholds, and an
optional terminating modification for
certain inspections. Since we issued AD
95–21–09, we have determined that the
compliance times must be reduced. This
proposed AD would reduce the
compliance times for inspections and
also reduce the number of airplanes
affected. We are proposing this AD to
detect and correct cracking of the No. 2
flap beams, which could result in
rupture of the flap beams and reduced
structural integrity of the airplane.

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all
Fokker Services B.V. Model F.28 Mark 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000
airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by a design review, that
revealed a hot spot may develop in the main fuel tank under certain
failure conditions of the solenoid of the level control pilot valve,
the reed switch of the main tank overflow valve, the level float switch
of the collector tank, or the solenoid of the main tank fueling shut-
off valve. This proposed AD would require installing fuses in the
wiring of the solenoid of the level control pilot valve, the reed
switch of the main tank overflow valve, the level float switch of the
collector tank, and the solenoid of the main tank fueling shut-off
valve, as applicable. This proposed AD would also require accomplishing
concurrent actions and revising the airplane maintenance or inspection
program, as applicable, by incorporating fuel airworthiness limitation
items and critical design configuration control limitations (CDCCLs).
We are proposing this AD to prevent an ignition source in the main fuel
tank vapor space, which could result in a fuel tank explosion and
consequent loss of the airplane.
DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by March 7, 2016.
ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR

Discussion
The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA
Airworthiness Directive 2014-0107, dated May 7, 2014 (referred to after
this the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or ``the
MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for all Fokker Services B.V.
Model F.28 Mark 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000 airplanes. The MCAI states:
Prompted by an accident * * *, the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) published Special Federal Aviation Regulation
(SFAR) 88 [(66 FR 23086, May 7, 2001)], and the Joint Aviation
Authorities (JAA) published Interim Policy INT/POL/25/12.
The review conducted by Fokker Services on the Fokker F28 design
in response to these regulations revealed that, under certain
failure conditions of the solenoid of the level control pilot valve,
the main tank overflow valve reed switch, the collector tank level
float switch or the main tank fuelling shut-off valve solenoid, a
hot spot may develop in the tank.
This condition, if not corrected, could create an ignition
source in the main tank vapour space, possibly resulting in a fuel
tank explosion and consequent loss of the aeroplane.
To address this potential unsafe condition, Fokker Services
developed a modification to the wiring (installation of fuses) of
the affected components.
For the reasons described above, this AD requires the
installation of fuses in the wiring of the affected components [the
solenoid of the level control pilot valve, the reed switch of the
main tank overflow valve, the level float switch of the collector
tank, and the solenoid of the main tank fuelling shut-off valve]
and, subsequently, the implementation of the associated Critical
Design Configuration Control Limitations (CDCCL) items [and revision
of the maintenance or inspection program].
More information on this subject can be found in Fokker Services
All Operators Message AOF28.038#02.
You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the Internet at https://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2015-
8472.
The FAA has examined the underlying safety issues involved in fuel
tank explosions on several large transport airplanes, including the
adequacy of existing regulations, the service history of airplanes
subject to those regulations, and existing maintenance practices for
fuel tank systems. As a result of those findings, we issued a
regulation titled ``Transport Airplane Fuel Tank System Design Review,
Flammability Reduction and Maintenance and Inspection Requirements''
(66 FR 23086, May 7, 2001). In addition to new airworthiness standards
for transport airplanes and new maintenance requirements, this rule
included Special Federal Aviation Regulation No. 88 (``SFAR 88,''
Amendment 21-78, and subsequent Amendments 21-82 and 21-83).
Among other actions, SFAR 88 (66 FR 23086, May 7, 2001) requires
certain type design (i.e., type certificate (TC) and supplemental type
certificate (STC)) holders to substantiate that their fuel tank systems
can prevent ignition sources in the fuel tanks. This requirement
applies to type design holders for large turbine-powered transport
airplanes and for subsequent modifications to those airplanes. It
requires them to perform design reviews and to develop design changes
and maintenance procedures if their designs do not meet the new fuel
tank safety standards. As explained in the preamble to the rule, we
intended to adopt airworthiness directives to mandate any changes found
necessary to address unsafe conditions identified as a result of these
reviews.
In evaluating these design reviews, we have established four
criteria intended to define the unsafe conditions associated with fuel
tank systems that require corrective actions. The percentage of
operating time during which fuel tanks are exposed to flammable
conditions is one of these criteria. The other three criteria address
the failure types under evaluation: Single failures, single failures in
combination with a latent condition(s), and in-service failure
experience. For all four criteria, the evaluations included
consideration of previous actions taken that may mitigate the need for
further action.
The Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA) has issued a regulation that
is similar to SFAR 88 (66 FR 23086, May 7, 2001). (The JAA is an
associated body of the European Civil Aviation Conference (ECAC)
representing the civil aviation regulatory authorities of a number of
European States who have agreed to co-operate in developing and
implementing common safety regulatory standards and procedures.) Under
this regulation, the JAA stated that all members of the ECAC that hold
type certificates for transport category airplanes are required to
conduct a design review against explosion risks.
We have determined that the actions identified in this AD are
necessary to reduce the potential of ignition sources inside fuel
tanks, which, in combination with flammable fuel vapors, could result
in fuel tank explosions and consequent loss of the airplane.

control pilot valves.
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.
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 these
same type designs.
This AD requires revisions to certain operator maintenance
documents to include new actions (e.g., inspections) and/or CDCCLs.
Compliance with these actions and/or CDCCLs is required by 14 CFR
91.403(c). For airplanes that have been previously modified, altered,
or repaired in the areas addressed by this AD, the operator may not be
able to accomplish the actions 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 to paragraph
(k)(1) of this AD. The request should include a description of changes
to the required actions that will ensure the continued operational
safety of the airplane.
Costs of Compliance
We estimate that this proposed AD affects 5 airplanes of U.S.
registry.
We also estimate that it would take about 21 work-hours per product
to comply with the basic requirements of this proposed AD. The average
labor rate is $85 per work-hour. Required parts would cost about $5,320
per product. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of this
proposed AD on U.S. operators to be $35,525, or $7,105, or 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);
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.
