ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking
(NPRM).
AGENCY:
The FAA proposes to
supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD)
2021–04–05, which applies to certain
Airbus Canada Limited Partnership
Model BD–500–1A10 and BD–500–
1A11 airplanes. AD 2021–04–05
requires revising the existing
maintenance or inspection program, as
applicable, to incorporate new or more
restrictive airworthiness limitations.
Since the FAA issued AD 2021–04–05,
the FAA has determined that new or
more restrictive airworthiness
limitations are necessary. This proposed
AD would continue to require the
actions in AD 2021–04–05 and require
revising the existing maintenance or
inspection program, as applicable, to
incorporate new or more restrictive
airworthiness limitations. The FAA is
proposing this AD to address the unsafe
condition on these products.
DATES: The FAA must receive comments
on this proposed AD by December 15,
2022.

Background
The FAA issued AD 2021–04–05,
Amendment 39–21426 (86 FR 10799,
February 23, 2021) (AD 2021–04–05),
which applies to certain Airbus Canada
Limited Partnership Model BD–500–
1A10 and BD–500–1A11 airplanes. AD
2021–04–05 requires revising the
existing maintenance or inspection
program, as applicable, to incorporate
new or more restrictive airworthiness
limitations. AD 2021–04–05 resulted
from a determination that new or more
restrictive airworthiness limitations are
necessary. The FAA issued AD 2021–
04–05 to address reduced structural
integrity of the airplane or reduced
controllability of the airplane.

Actions Since AD 2021–04–05 Was
Issued
Since the FAA issued AD 2021–04–
05, the FAA has determined that new or
more restrictive airworthiness
limitations are necessary
Transport Canada Civil Aviation
(TCCA), which is the aviation authority
for Canada, has issued TCCA AD CF–
2022–18, dated April 14, 2022 (TCCA
AD CF–2022–18) (also referred to after
this as the MCAI), to correct an unsafe
condition for certain Airbus Canada
Limited Partnership Model BD–500–
1A10 and BD–500–1A11 airplanes.
Airplanes with an original airworthiness
certificate or original export certificate
of airworthiness issued after February 3,
2022, must comply with the
airworthiness limitations specified as
part of the approved type design and
referenced on the type certificate data
sheet; this proposed AD therefore does
not include those airplanes in the
applicability.

This proposed AD was prompted by
a determination that new or more

necessary. The FAA is proposing this
AD to address reduced structural
integrity of the airplane or reduced
controllability of the airplane.

certification maintenance requirements.
This proposed AD would also require
Airbus Canada Limited Partnership
A220 Airworthiness Limitations,
BD500–3AB48–11400–02, Issue 011.00,
dated June 18, 2020, which the Director
of the Federal Register approved for

Airworthiness Limitations, BD500–

June 18, 2020, only.
This proposed AD would require
revisions to certain operator
maintenance documents to include new
actions (e.g., inspections) and Critical
Design Configuration Control
Limitations (CDCCLs). Compliance with
these actions and 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 proposed 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 proposed AD.
FAA’s Determination
This product has been approved by
the aviation authority of another
country, and is approved for operation
in the United States. Pursuant to the
FAA’s bilateral agreement with the State
of Design Authority, the FAA has been
notified of the unsafe condition
described in the MCAI and service
information referenced above. The FAA
is proposing this AD because the FAA
evaluated all the relevant information
and determined the unsafe condition
described previously is likely to exist or
develop on other products of the same
type design.
Differences Between This Proposed AD
and the MCAI
TCCA AD CF–2022–18 specifies to
incorporate all sections of the
airworthiness limitations document.
This proposed AD would not require the
incorporation of Section 03, ‘‘Candidate
CMR limitations—General,’’ of Airbus
Canada Limited Partnership A220
Airworthiness Limitations, BD500–
3AB48–11400–02, Issue 014.00, dated
February 3, 2022. However, this
proposed AD would continue to require
the incorporation of Section 03,
‘‘Candidate CMR limitations—General,’’
of Airbus Canada Limited Partnership
A220 Airworthiness Limitations,
BD500–3AB48–11400–02, Issue 011.00,
dated June 18, 2020.
Proposed Requirements of This NPRM
This proposed AD would retain all of
the requirements of AD 2021–04–05.
This proposed AD would require
revising the existing maintenance or
inspection program, as applicable, to
incorporate new or more restrictive
airworthiness limitations. Revising the
existing maintenance or inspection
program as proposed in this AD would
terminate the retained requirements
from AD 2021–04–05 in paragraph (g) of
this proposed AD, for Sections 01,
‘‘Airworthiness limitations—
Introduction;’’ 02, ‘‘Certification
maintenance requirements—General;’’
04, ‘‘ALI structural inspections—
Costs of Compliance
The FAA estimates that this proposed
AD affects 70 airplanes of U.S. registry.
The FAA estimates the following costs
to comply with this proposed AD:
The FAA estimates the total cost per
operator for the retained actions from
AD 2021–04–05 to be $7,650 (90 workhours × $85 per work-hour).
The FAA has determined that revising
the maintenance or inspection program
takes an average of 90 work-hours per
operator, although the agency
recognizes that this number may vary
from operator to operator. Since
operators incorporate maintenance or
inspection program changes for their

affected fleet(s), the FAA has
determined that a per-operator estimate
is more accurate than a per-airplane
estimate. Therefore, the agency
estimates the average total cost per
operator to be $7,650 (90 work-hours ×
$85 per work-hour).
The FAA estimates the total cost per
operator for the new proposed actions to
be $7,650 (90 work-hours × $85 per
work-hour).
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.
The FAA is 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
khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with PROPOSALS
The FAA 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) Would not affect intrastate
aviation in Alaska, and
(3) Would not have a significant
economic impact, positive or negative,
on a substantial number of small entities
under the criteria of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act.

ACTION:
The FAA proposes to
supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD)
99–25–11, which applies to certain BAE
Systems (Operations) Limited Model
BAe 146 and Avro 146–RJ series
airplanes. AD 99–25–11 requires
repetitive inspections for cracks along
the face of the retraction attachment
boss in the nose landing gear (NLG)
sidewall; and corrective action, if
necessary. Since the FAA issued AD 99–
25–11, additional cracking was found
that indicated additional airplanes are
subject to the unsafe condition. This
proposed AD would continue to require
the actions in AD 99–25–11, and expand
the applicability. The FAA is proposing
this AD to address the unsafe condition
on these products.
DATES: The FAA must receive comments
on this proposed AD by December 15,
2022.

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD)
2021-04-05, which applies to certain Airbus Canada Limited Partnership
Model BD-500-1A10 and BD-500-1A11 airplanes. AD 2021-04-05 requires
revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable,
to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations. Since
the FAA issued AD 2021-04-05, the FAA has determined that new or more
restrictive airworthiness limitations are necessary. This proposed AD
would continue to require the actions in AD 2021-04-05 and require
revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable,
to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations. The
FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these
products.
DATES: The FAA must receive comments on this proposed AD by December

Information Act (FOIA) (5 U.S.C. 552), CBI is exempt from public
disclosure. If your comments responsive to this NPRM contain commercial
or financial information that is customarily treated as private, that
you actually treat as
[[Page 65539]]
private, and that is relevant or responsive to this NPRM, it is
important that you clearly designate the submitted comments as CBI.
Please mark each page of your submission containing CBI as ``PROPIN.''
The FAA will treat such marked submissions as confidential under the
FOIA, and they will not be placed in the public docket of this NPRM.
Submissions containing CBI should be sent to Gabriel Kim, Aerospace
Engineer, Airframe and Propulsion Section, FAA, New York ACO Branch,
1600 Stewart Avenue, Suite 410, Westbury, NY 11590; telephone 516-228-

the public docket for this rulemaking.
Background
The FAA issued AD 2021-04-05, Amendment 39-21426 (86 FR 10799,
February 23, 2021) (AD 2021-04-05), which applies to certain Airbus
Canada Limited Partnership Model BD-500-1A10 and BD-500-1A11 airplanes.
AD 2021-04-05 requires revising the existing maintenance or inspection
program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive
airworthiness limitations. AD 2021-04-05 resulted from a determination
that new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations are necessary.
The FAA issued AD 2021-04-05 to address reduced structural integrity of
the airplane or reduced controllability of the airplane.
Actions Since AD 2021-04-05 Was Issued
Since the FAA issued AD 2021-04-05, the FAA has determined that new
or more restrictive airworthiness limitations are necessary
Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA), which is the aviation
authority for Canada, has issued TCCA AD CF-2022-18, dated April 14,
2022 (TCCA AD CF-2022-18) (also referred to after this as the MCAI), to
correct an unsafe condition for certain Airbus Canada Limited
Partnership Model BD-500-1A10 and BD-500-1A11 airplanes. Airplanes with
an original airworthiness certificate or original export certificate of
airworthiness issued after February 3, 2022, must comply with the
airworthiness limitations specified as part of the approved type design
and referenced on the type certificate data sheet; this proposed AD
therefore does not include those airplanes in the applicability.
You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket at regulations.gov by
searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2022-1308.
This proposed AD was prompted by a determination that new or more
restrictive airworthiness limitations are necessary. The FAA is
proposing this AD to address reduced structural integrity of the
airplane or reduced controllability of the airplane.
Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51
Airbus Canada Limited Partnership has issued A220 Airworthiness
Limitations, BD500-3AB48-11400-02, Issue 014.00, dated February 3,
2022. This service information describes airworthiness limitations for
fuel tank systems, safe life limits, and certification maintenance
requirements.
This proposed AD would also require Airbus Canada Limited
Partnership A220 Airworthiness Limitations, BD500-3AB48-11400-02, Issue
011.00, dated June 18, 2020, which the Director of the Federal Register
approved for incorporation by reference as of March 30, 2021 (86 FR
10799, February 23, 2021).
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
This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant
to the FAA's bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority,
the FAA has been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI
and service information referenced above. The FAA is proposing this AD
because the FAA evaluated all the relevant information and determined
the unsafe condition described previously is likely to exist or develop
on other products of the same type design.
Proposed Requirements of This NPRM
This proposed AD would retain all of the requirements of AD 2021-
04-05. This proposed AD would require revising the existing maintenance
or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more
restrictive airworthiness limitations. Revising the existing
maintenance or inspection program as proposed in this AD would
terminate the retained requirements from AD 2021-04-05 in paragraph (g)
of this proposed AD, for Sections 01, ``Airworthiness limitations--
Introduction;'' 02, ``Certification maintenance requirements--
General;'' 04, ``ALI structural inspections--General;'' 05, ``Life
limited parts (systems)--General;'' 06, ``Life limited parts
(structures)--General;'' 07, ``Fuel system limitations--General;'' 08,
``Critical design configuration control limitations--General;'' 09,
``Power plant limitations--General;'' 10, ``Structural repair
limitations--General;'' and 11, ``Limit of validity--General;'' of
Airbus Canada Limited Partnership A220 Airworthiness Limitations,
BD500-3AB48-11400-02, Issue 011.00, dated June 18, 2020, only.
This proposed AD would require revisions to certain operator
maintenance documents to include new actions (e.g., inspections) and
Critical Design Configuration Control Limitations (CDCCLs). Compliance
with these actions and 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 proposed 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 proposed AD.
Differences Between This Proposed AD and the MCAI
TCCA AD CF-2022-18 specifies to incorporate all sections of the
airworthiness limitations document. This proposed AD would not require
the incorporation of Section 03, ``Candidate CMR limitations--
General,'' of Airbus Canada Limited Partnership A220 Airworthiness
Limitations, BD500-3AB48-11400-02, Issue 014.00, dated February 3,
2022. However, this proposed AD would continue to require the
incorporation of Section 03, ``Candidate CMR limitations--General,'' of
Airbus Canada Limited Partnership A220 Airworthiness Limitations,
BD500-3AB48-11400-02, Issue 011.00, dated June 18, 2020.
Costs of Compliance
The FAA estimates that this proposed AD affects 70 airplanes of
U.S. registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with
this proposed AD:
The FAA estimates the total cost per operator for the retained
actions from AD 2021-04-05 to be $7,650 (90 work-hours x $85 per work-
hour).
The FAA has determined that revising the maintenance or inspection
program takes an average of 90 work-hours per operator, although the
agency recognizes that this number may vary from operator to operator.
Since operators incorporate maintenance or inspection program changes
for their
[[Page 65540]]
affected fleet(s), the FAA has determined that a per-operator estimate
is more accurate than a per-airplane estimate. Therefore, the agency
estimates the average total cost per operator to be $7,650 (90 work-
hours x $85 per work-hour).
The FAA estimates the total cost per operator for the new proposed
actions to be $7,650 (90 work-hours x $85 per work-hour).
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.
The FAA is 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
The FAA 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) Would not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
(3) Would 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
