Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 187 / Thursday, September 30, 2021 / Proposed Rules
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.
§ 39.13
[Amended]
2. The FAA amends § 39.13 by:
a. Removing Airworthiness Directive
2020–21–01, Amendment 39–21274 (85
FR 63440, October 8, 2020); and
■ b. Adding the following new
airworthiness directive:
■
■
Airbus Helicopters: Docket No. FAA–2021–
0839; Project Identifier MCAI–2020–
01697–R.
(a) Comments Due Date
The FAA must receive comments on this
airworthiness directive (AD) action by
November 15, 2021.
(b) Affected ADs
This AD replaces AD 2020–21–01,
Amendment 39–21274 (85 FR 63440, October
8, 2020) (AD 2020–21–01).
(c) Applicability
This AD applies to the Airbus Helicopters
model helicopters, certificated in any
category, as identified in paragraphs (c)(1)
through (3) of this AD.
(1) Model AS–365N2, AS 365 N3, and SA–
365N1, all serial numbers on which Airbus
Helicopters modification 0763B64 has been
embodied, except those on which Airbus
Helicopters modification 0763C81 has been
embodied.
(2) Model SA–365C1, SA–365C2, and SA–
365N, all serial numbers on which Airbus
Helicopters modification 0763B64 has been

LOTTER on DSK11XQN23PROD with PROPOSALS1
(d) Subject
Joint Aircraft Service Component (JASC)
Code: 6500, Tail Rotor Drive System.
(e) Unsafe Condition
This AD was prompted by several reported
occurrences of loss of tightening torque of the
Shur-Lok nut, which serves as a retainer of
the main gear box (MGB) tail rotor (T/R)
drive flange. The FAA is issuing this AD to
detect and address loss of tightening torque
of the Shur-Lok nut. The unsafe condition, if
not addressed, could result in loosening of
the Shur-Lok nut, possibly resulting in
disengagement of the Shur-Lok nut threads,
reduction of T/R drive control, rear
transmission vibrations, and subsequent
reduced control of the helicopter.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Currently,
postage for Periodicals pending
authorization is calculated by
completing a PS Form 3541, Postage
Statement-Periodicals, and charging the
price for the applicable class of mail
determined by the eligibility of the
mailpiece. Based on the numerous
pricing differences in Periodicals and
other classes of mail, this process is
labor intensive and does not provide
exact pricing.
The Postal Service is proposing to
revise the process and calculate pending
postage by assigning the existing
applicable class of mail prices based
upon common characteristics of shape
and weight. Each applicable class of
mail price will be expressed as a
percentage from the corresponding
Periodicals price. This new process will
simplify the calculation process during
the authorization review period, and the
refund process when a Periodicals
publication is approved.
Although exempt from the notice and
comment requirements of the
Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C.
553(b), (c)) regarding proposed
rulemaking by 39 U.S.C. 410(a), the
