Airworthiness Directives; CFM
International, S.A. Turbofan Engines
Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking
(NPRM).
AGENCY:
The FAA proposes to
supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD)
2021–10–09, which applies to all CFM
International, S.A. (CFM) CFM56–5B
and CFM56–7B model turbofan engines
with a certain high-pressure turbine
(HPT) inner stationary seal installed. AD
2021–10–09 requires removal,
inspection, and replacement of the
affected HPT inner stationary seal and,
depending on the findings, replacement
of the rotating air HPT front seal, HPT
rotor blades, and No. 3 ball bearing.
Since the FAA issued AD 2021–10–09,
the manufacturer notified the FAA that
the service information incorrectly lists
the year of certain honeycomb repairs.
Additionally, the manufacturer notified
the FAA that affected HPT inner
stationary seals could potentially be
installed on CFM CFM56–5C model
turbofan engines. This proposed AD
would require removal, inspection, and
replacement of the affected HPT inner
stationary seal and, depending on the
findings, replacement of the rotating air
HPT front seal, HPT rotor blades, and
No. 3 ball bearing. This proposed AD
would also revise the applicability to
add CFM CFM56–5C model turbofan
engines. 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 January 17,
2023.

Background
The FAA issued AD 2021–10–09,
Amendment 39–21542 (86 FR 27264,
May 20, 2021) (AD 2021–10–09), for all
CFM CFM56–5B and CFM56–7B model
turbofan engines with an HPT inner
stationary seal, part number (P/N)
1808M56G01, installed. AD 2021–10–09
was prompted by cracks found in the
rotating air HPT front seal. After
investigation, CFM determined that the
HPT inner stationary seal, P/N
1808M56G01, may not have received
the correct braze heat treat cycle at the
time of the honeycomb replacement. As
a result, the affected HPT inner
stationary seal may have a condition
that could lead to a localized separation
E:\FR\FM\01DEP1.SGM

of the replaced honeycomb, which may
reduce the life of the rotating air HPT
front seal. AD 2021–10–09 requires
removal, inspection, and replacement of
the affected HPT inner stationary seal
and, depending on the findings,
replacement of the rotating air HPT
front seal, HPT rotor blades, and No. 3
ball bearing. The agency issued AD
2021–10–09 to prevent failure of the
HPT inner stationary seal and the
rotating air HPT front seal, which could
result in uncontained release of the
rotating air HPT front seal, damage to
the engine, and damage to the airplane.
model turbofan engines. The FAA,
therefore, determined that the unsafe
condition is likely to exist or develop on
CFM CFM56–5C model turbofan
engines with an affected HPT inner
stationary seal installed.
Actions Since AD 2021–10–09 Was
Issued
The FAA reviewed the following
service information:
• CFM Service Bulletin (SB) CFM56–
5C S/B 72–0796, Revision 02, dated
August 10, 2022.
• CFM SB CFM56–5B S/B 72–0952,
Revision 02, dated August 10, 2022.
• CFM SB CFM56–7B S/B 72–1054,
Revision 02, dated August 10, 2022.
This service information,
differentiated by engine model, specifies
procedures for inspecting the HPT inner
stationary seal honeycomb. This service
information is reasonably available
Since the FAA issued AD 2021–10–
09, the manufacturer notified the FAA
that the service information, which is
incorporated by reference, incorrectly
lists the year of certain honeycomb
repairs. The manufacturer subsequently
published revised service information
that establishes a single date for the
honeycomb repairs. Additionally, the
manufacturer notified the FAA that
affected HPT inner stationary seals
could be installed on CFM CFM56–5C
FAA’s Determination
The FAA is issuing this NPRM after
determining that the unsafe condition
described previously is likely to exist or
develop on other products of the same
type design.
Related Service Information Under 1
CFR Part 51
because the interested parties have
access to it through their normal course
of business or by the means identified
in ADDRESSES.
Proposed AD Requirements in This
NPRM
This proposed AD would retain none
of the requirements of AD 2021–10–09.
This proposed AD would require
removal, inspection, and replacement of
the affected HPT inner stationary seal
and, depending on the findings,
replacement of the rotating air HPT
front seal, HPT rotor blades, and No. 3
ball bearing. This proposed AD would
also revise the applicability to add CFM
CFM56–5C model turbofan engines.
Costs of Compliance
The FAA estimates that this AD, if
adopted as proposed, would affect 210
engines installed on airplanes of U.S.
registry. Operators have the option to
replace or repair the affected HPT inner
stationary seal. The parts cost includes
the estimated costs for replacement with
a repaired HPT inner stationary seal.
The FAA estimates the following
costs to comply with this proposed AD:

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

Airworthiness Directives; CFM
International, S.A. Turbofan Engines
Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking
(NPRM).
AGENCY:
The FAA proposes to adopt a
new airworthiness directive (AD) for
certain CFM International, S.A. (CFM)
LEAP–1B turbofan engines. This
proposed AD was prompted by a report
of multiple aborted takeoffs and air
turn-backs (ATBs) caused by highpressure compressor (HPC) stall, which
was induced by high levels of nonsynchronous vibration (NSV). A
subsequent investigation by the
manufacturer revealed that wear on the
No. 3 bearing spring finger housing can
lead to high levels of NSV. This
proposed AD would require repetitive
calculations of the oil filter delta
pressure (OFDP) data and, depending on
the results of the calculation,
replacement of the No. 3 bearing spring
finger housing. This proposed AD
would also prohibit installation of an
engine with an affected No. 3 bearing
spring finger housing onto an airplane
that already has one engine with an
affected No. 3 bearing spring finger
housing installed. 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 January 17,
2023.

Airworthiness Directives; CFM International, S.A. Turbofan
Engines
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD)
2021-10-09, which applies to all CFM International, S.A. (CFM) CFM56-5B
and CFM56-7B model turbofan engines with a certain high-pressure
turbine (HPT) inner stationary seal installed. AD 2021-10-09 requires
removal, inspection, and replacement of the affected HPT inner
stationary seal and, depending on the findings, replacement of the
rotating air HPT front seal, HPT rotor blades, and No. 3 ball bearing.
Since the FAA issued AD 2021-10-09, the manufacturer notified the FAA
that the service information incorrectly lists the year of certain
honeycomb repairs. Additionally, the manufacturer notified the FAA that
affected HPT inner stationary seals could potentially be installed on
CFM CFM56-5C model turbofan engines. This proposed AD would require
removal, inspection, and replacement of the affected HPT inner
stationary seal and, depending on the findings, replacement of the
rotating air HPT front seal, HPT rotor blades, and No. 3 ball bearing.
This proposed AD would also revise the applicability to add CFM CFM56-
5C model turbofan engines. 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 January 17,
2023.
ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR
11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following methods:

you actually treat as 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 Kevin
Clark, Aviation Safety Engineer, ECO Branch, FAA, 1200 District Avenue,
Burlington, MA 01803. Any commentary that the FAA receives which is not
specifically designated as CBI will be placed in the public docket for
this rulemaking.
Background
The FAA issued AD 2021-10-09, Amendment 39-21542 (86 FR 27264, May
20, 2021) (AD 2021-10-09), for all CFM CFM56-5B and CFM56-7B model
turbofan engines with an HPT inner stationary seal, part number (P/N)
1808M56G01, installed. AD 2021-10-09 was prompted by cracks found in
the rotating air HPT front seal. After investigation, CFM determined
that the HPT inner stationary seal, P/N 1808M56G01, may not have
received the correct braze heat treat cycle at the time of the
honeycomb replacement. As a result, the affected HPT inner stationary
seal may have a condition that could lead to a localized separation
[[Page 73684]]
of the replaced honeycomb, which may reduce the life of the rotating
air HPT front seal. AD 2021-10-09 requires removal, inspection, and
replacement of the affected HPT inner stationary seal and, depending on
the findings, replacement of the rotating air HPT front seal, HPT rotor
blades, and No. 3 ball bearing. The agency issued AD 2021-10-09 to
prevent failure of the HPT inner stationary seal and the rotating air
HPT front seal, which could result in uncontained release of the
rotating air HPT front seal, damage to the engine, and damage to the
airplane.
Actions Since AD 2021-10-09 Was Issued
Since the FAA issued AD 2021-10-09, the manufacturer notified the
FAA that the service information, which is incorporated by reference,
incorrectly lists the year of certain honeycomb repairs. The
manufacturer subsequently published revised service information that
establishes a single date for the honeycomb repairs. Additionally, the
manufacturer notified the FAA that affected HPT inner stationary seals
could be installed on CFM CFM56-5C model turbofan engines. The FAA,
therefore, determined that the unsafe condition is likely to exist or
develop on CFM CFM56-5C model turbofan engines with an affected HPT
inner stationary seal installed.
FAA's Determination
The FAA is issuing this NPRM after determining that the unsafe
condition described previously is likely to exist or develop on other
products of the same type design.
Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51
The FAA reviewed the following service information:
CFM Service Bulletin (SB) CFM56-5C S/B 72-0796, Revision
02, dated August 10, 2022.
CFM SB CFM56-5B S/B 72-0952, Revision 02, dated August 10,
2022.
CFM SB CFM56-7B S/B 72-1054, Revision 02, dated August 10,
2022.
This service information, differentiated by engine model, specifies
procedures for inspecting the HPT inner stationary seal honeycomb. 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 ADDRESSES.
Proposed AD Requirements in This NPRM
This proposed AD would retain none of the requirements of AD 2021-
10-09. This proposed AD would require removal, inspection, and
replacement of the affected HPT inner stationary seal and, depending on
the findings, replacement of the rotating air HPT front seal, HPT rotor
blades, and No. 3 ball bearing. This proposed AD would also revise the
applicability to add CFM CFM56-5C model turbofan engines.
Costs of Compliance
The FAA estimates that this AD, if adopted as proposed, would
affect 210 engines installed on airplanes of U.S. registry. Operators
have the option to replace or repair the affected HPT inner stationary
seal. The parts cost includes the estimated costs for replacement with
a repaired HPT inner stationary seal.
The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this proposed
AD:
Estimated Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cost per Cost on U.S.
Action Labor cost Parts cost product operators
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Replace HPT inner stationary seal..... 1 work-hour x $85 per $7,910 $7,995 $1,678,950
hour = $85.
Inspect HPT inner stationary seal..... 1 work-hour x $85 per 0 85 17,850
hour = $85.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The FAA estimates the following costs to do any necessary
replacements that would be required based on the results of the
proposed inspection. The agency has no way of determining the number of
engines that might need these replacements:
On-Condition Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cost per
Action Labor cost Parts cost product
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Replace rotating air HPT front seal........... 1 work-hour x $85 per hour = $85 $344,600 $344,685
Replace HPT rotor blades (pair)............... 1 work-hour x $85 per hour = $85 31,000 31,085
Replace No. 3 ball bearing.................... 1 work-hour x $85 per hour = $85 30,000 30,085
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 that the 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
[[Page 73685]]
under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
