SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: AD 2022-16-04, Amendment 39-22133 (87 FR 
47337, August 3, 2022) (AD 2022-16-04), requires inspecting the 
horizontal stabilizer lower skin and associated bonded doublers and 
bonded stringers, repairing any area with corrosion beyond allowable 
damage limits, and incorporating revisions to the airworthiness 
limitations section (ALS) in the existing aircraft maintenance manual 
(AMM) or progressive maintenance program for all Gulfstream Model GV 
and GV-SP airplanes.

Need for the Correction

    As published, the regulatory text of AD 2022-16-04 includes the 
following errors:
     The revision level of the Gulfstream V Aircraft 
Maintenance Manual specified in paragraph (j)(1) of the regulatory text 
is incorrectly identified as ``Revision 53.'' The correct revision for 
February 28, 2020, is ``Revision 51''; and
     The number specified for the Horizontal Stabilizer 
Inspection Table in the document citation in paragraph (j)(2) of the 
regulatory text is incorrectly referenced as ``Table 11.'' The correct 
reference is ``Table 12.''

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    The FAA reviewed Gulfstream G500-5000 Customer Bulletin No. 190, 
Revision B; Gulfstream G550 Customer Bulletin No. 190, Revision B; and 
Gulfstream GV Customer Bulletin No. 228, Revision B; all dated October 
31, 2019. For the applicable marketing designation specified on each 
document, the customer bulletins specify procedures for inspecting the 
horizontal stabilizer lower bonded skin.
    The FAA also reviewed Section F and Table 12: Horizontal Stabilizer 
Inspection Table in Section 05-10-10, Airworthiness Limitations, of 
Chapter 05, Time Limits/Maintenance Checks, of the Gulfstream V 
Aircraft Maintenance Manual, Revision 55, dated March 15, 2022; Section 
F and Table 11: Horizontal Stabilizer Inspection Table in Section 05-
10-10, Airworthiness Limitations, of Chapter 05, Time Limits/

[[Page 52664]]

Maintenance Checks, of the Gulfstream G500-5000 Aircraft Maintenance 
Manual, Revision 36, dated March 15, 2022; and Section F and Table 11: 
Horizontal Stabilizer Inspection Table in Section 05-10-10, 
Airworthiness Limitations, of Chapter 05, Time Limits/Maintenance 
Checks, of the Gulfstream G550 Aircraft Maintenance Manual, Revision 
36, dated March 15, 2022. For the applicable marketing designation 
specified on each document, the service information contains inspection 
intervals for nondestructive testing of the lower horizontal stabilizer 
skins and provides the specific reference for the inspection 
procedures.
    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.

Correction of Publication

    This document corrects two typographical errors and correctly adds 
the AD as an amendment to 14 CFR 39.13. Although no other part of the 
preamble or regulatory information has been corrected, the FAA is 
republishing the entire rule in the Federal Register.
    The effective date of this AD remains September 7, 2022.
    Since this action only corrects a revision level and table number 
in document citations in the regulatory text, it has no adverse 
economic impact and imposes no additional burden on any person. 
Therefore, the FAA has determined that notice and public procedures are 
unnecessary.
