Background
The FAA issued AD 2018–20–07,
Amendment 39–19441 (83 FR 49789,
October 3, 2018) (AD 2018–20–07), for
all Dassault Aviation Model MYSTERE–
FALCON 50 airplanes. AD 2018–20–07
was prompted by an MCAI originated by
EASA, which is the Technical Agent for
the Member States of the European
Union. EASA issued AD 2018–0026,
dated January 30, 2018 (EASA 2018–
0026) (which corresponds to FAA AD
2018–20–07), to correct an unsafe
condition.
AD 2018–20–07 requires revising the
existing maintenance or inspection
program, as applicable, to incorporate
new and more restrictive maintenance
requirements and airworthiness
limitations. The FAA issued AD 2018–
20–07 to address reduced structural
integrity of the airplane. AD 2018–20–
07 specifies that accomplishing the
revision required by that AD terminates
all requirements of AD 2017–09–03,
Amendment 39–18865 (82 FR 21467,
May 9, 2017) (AD 2017–09–03). AD
2018–20–07 also specifies that it
terminates the requirements of AD
2010–26–05, Amendment 39–16544 (75
FR 79952, December 21, 2010) (AD
2010–26–05) and AD 2012–02–18,
Amendment 39–16941 (77 FR 12175,
February 29, 2012) (AD 2012–02–18) for
certain Dassault Aviation Model
MYSTERE–FALCON 50 airplanes. AD
2012–02–18 has since been removed (84
FR 11640, March 28, 2019). This
proposed AD would therefore supersede
AD 2017–09–03 and terminate the
requirements of AD 2010–26–05 for
Dassault Aviation Model MYSTERE–
FALCON 50 airplanes only.
Actions Since AD 2018–20–07 Was
Issued
Since the FAA issued AD 2018–20–
07, EASA superseded AD 2018–0026
and issued EASA AD 2022–0166, dated
August 11, 2022 (EASA AD 2022–0166)
(referred to after this as the MCAI), for
all Dassault Aviation Model MYSTERE–
FALCON 50 airplanes. The MCAI states
that new or more restrictive
airworthiness limitations have been
developed.
The FAA is proposing this AD to
address reduced structural integrity of
the airplane. You may examine the
MCAI in the AD docket at
regulations.gov under Docket No. FAA–
2023–0013.

This proposed AD would also require
Chapter 5–40, Airworthiness
Limitations, DGT 113872, Revision 24,
dated July 2017, of the Dassault Falcon
50/50EX Maintenance Manual, which
the Director of the Federal Register
approved for incorporation by reference
as of November 7, 2018 (83 FR 49789,
October 3, 2018).
This material is reasonably available
because the interested parties have
access to it through their normal course
of business or by the means identified
in ADDRESSES.
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, it has notified the
FAA of the unsafe condition described
in the MCAI described above. The FAA
is issuing this NPRM after determining
that the unsafe condition described
previously is likely to exist or develop
in other products of the same type
design.
Proposed AD Requirements in This
NPRM
This proposed AD would retain all
requirements of AD 2018–20–07. This
proposed AD would also require
revising the existing maintenance or
inspection program, as applicable, to
incorporate additional new or more
restrictive airworthiness limitations,
which are specified in EASA AD 2022–
0166 already described, as proposed for
incorporation by reference. Any
differences with EASA AD 2022–0166
are identified as exceptions in the
regulatory text of this AD.
This proposed AD would require
revisions to certain operator
maintenance documents to include new
actions (e.g., inspections). Compliance
with these actions 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 (AMOC)
according to paragraph (m)(1) of this
proposed AD.
Explanation of Required Compliance
Information
In the FAA’s ongoing efforts to
improve the efficiency of the AD
process, the FAA developed a process to

13JAP1
2294
Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 9 / Friday, January 13, 2023 / Proposed Rules
lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with PROPOSALS1
use some civil aviation authority (CAA)
ADs as the primary source of
information for compliance with
requirements for corresponding FAA
ADs. The FAA has been coordinating
this process with manufacturers and
CAAs. As a result, the FAA proposes to
incorporate EASA AD 2022–0166 by
reference in the FAA final rule. This
proposed AD would, therefore, require
compliance with EASA AD 2022–0166
through that incorporation, except for
any differences identified as exceptions
in the regulatory text of this proposed
AD. Using common terms that are the
same as the heading of a particular
section in EASA AD 2022–0166 does
not mean that operators need comply
only with that section. For example,
where the AD requirement refers to ‘‘all
required actions and compliance times,’’
compliance with this AD requirement is
not limited to the section titled
‘‘Required Action(s) and Compliance
Time(s)’’ in EASA AD 2022–0166.
Service information required by EASA
AD 2022–0166 for compliance will be
available at regulations.gov by searching
for and locating Docket No. FAA–2023–
0013 after the FAA final rule is
published.
Airworthiness Limitation ADs Using
the New Process
The FAA’s process of incorporating
by reference MCAI ADs as the primary
source of information for compliance
with corresponding FAA ADs has been
limited to certain MCAI ADs (primarily
those with service bulletins as the
primary source of information for
accomplishing the actions required by
the FAA AD). However, the FAA is now
expanding the process to include MCAI
ADs that require a change to
airworthiness limitation documents,
such as airworthiness limitation
sections.
For these ADs that incorporate by
reference an MCAI AD that changes
airworthiness limitations, the FAA
requirements are unchanged. Operators
must revise the existing maintenance or
inspection program, as applicable, to
incorporate the information specified in
the new airworthiness limitation
document. The airworthiness
limitations must be followed according
to 14 CFR 91.403(c) and 91.409(e).
The previous format of the
airworthiness limitation ADs included a
paragraph that specified that no
alternative actions (e.g., inspections) or
intervals may be used unless the actions
and intervals are approved as an AMOC
in accordance with the procedures
specified in the AMOCs paragraph
under ‘‘Additional AD Provisions.’’ This
new format includes a ‘‘New Provisions
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:06 Jan 12, 2023
Jkt 259001
for Alternative Actions and Intervals’’
paragraph that does not specifically
refer to AMOCs, but operators may still
request an AMOC to use an alternative
action or interval.
Costs of Compliance
The FAA estimates that this AD, if
adopted as proposed, would affect 239
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 2018–20–07 to be $7,650 (90 workhours × $85 per work-hour).
The FAA has determined that revising
the existing maintenance or inspection
program takes an average of 90 workhours 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.
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
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.

Airworthiness Directives; Dassault Aviation Airplanes
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD)
2017-09-03 and AD 2018-20-07, which apply to all Dassault Aviation
Model MYSTERE-FALCON 50 airplanes. AD 2017-09-03 and AD 2018-20-07
require revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as
applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness
limitations. Since the FAA issued AD 2017-09-03 and AD 2018-20-07, the
FAA has determined that new or more restrictive airworthiness
limitations are necessary. This proposed AD would continue to require
the actions in AD 2018-20-07 and would require revising the existing
maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or
more restrictive airworthiness limitations, as specified in a European
Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is proposed for
incorporation by reference (IBR). 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 February
27, 2023.

be placed in the public docket for this rulemaking.
Background
The FAA issued AD 2018-20-07, Amendment 39-19441 (83 FR 49789,
October 3, 2018) (AD 2018-20-07), for all Dassault Aviation Model
MYSTERE-FALCON 50 airplanes. AD 2018-20-07 was prompted by an MCAI
originated by EASA, which is the Technical Agent for the Member States
of the European Union. EASA issued AD 2018-0026, dated January 30, 2018
(EASA 2018-0026) (which corresponds to FAA AD 2018-20-07), to correct
an unsafe condition.
AD 2018-20-07 requires revising the existing maintenance or
inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new and more
restrictive maintenance requirements and airworthiness limitations. The
FAA issued AD 2018-20-07 to address reduced structural integrity of the
airplane. AD 2018-20-07 specifies that accomplishing the revision
required by that AD terminates all requirements of AD 2017-09-03,
Amendment 39-18865 (82 FR 21467, May 9, 2017) (AD 2017-09-03). AD 2018-
20-07 also specifies that it terminates the requirements of AD 2010-26-
05, Amendment 39-16544 (75 FR 79952, December 21, 2010) (AD 2010-26-05)
and AD 2012-02-18, Amendment 39-16941 (77 FR 12175, February 29, 2012)
(AD 2012-02-18) for certain Dassault Aviation Model MYSTERE-FALCON 50
airplanes. AD 2012-02-18 has since been removed (84 FR 11640, March 28,
2019). This proposed AD would therefore supersede AD 2017-09-03 and
terminate the requirements of AD 2010-26-05 for Dassault Aviation Model
MYSTERE-FALCON 50 airplanes only.
Actions Since AD 2018-20-07 Was Issued
Since the FAA issued AD 2018-20-07, EASA superseded AD 2018-0026
and issued EASA AD 2022-0166, dated August 11, 2022 (EASA AD 2022-0166)
(referred to after this as the MCAI), for all Dassault Aviation Model
MYSTERE-FALCON 50 airplanes. The MCAI states that new or more
restrictive airworthiness limitations have been developed.
The FAA is proposing this AD to address reduced structural
integrity of the airplane. You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket at
regulations.gov under Docket No. FAA-2023-0013.
Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51
The FAA reviewed EASA AD 2022-0166. This service information
specifies new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations for
airplane structures and safe life limits.
This proposed AD would also require Chapter 5-40, Airworthiness
Limitations, DGT 113872, Revision 24, dated July 2017, of the Dassault
Falcon 50/50EX Maintenance Manual, which the Director of the Federal
Register approved for incorporation by reference as of November 7, 2018
(83 FR 49789, October 3, 2018).
This material is reasonably available because the interested
parties have access to it through their normal course of business or by
the means identified in ADDRESSES.
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, it
has notified the FAA of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI
described above. The FAA is issuing this NPRM after determining that
the unsafe condition described previously is likely to exist or develop
in other products of the same type design.
Proposed AD Requirements in This NPRM
This proposed AD would retain all requirements of AD 2018-20-07.
This proposed AD would also require revising the existing maintenance
or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate additional new or
more restrictive airworthiness limitations, which are specified in EASA
AD 2022-0166 already described, as proposed for incorporation by
reference. Any differences with EASA AD 2022-0166 are identified as
exceptions in the regulatory text of this AD.
This proposed AD would require revisions to certain operator
maintenance documents to include new actions (e.g., inspections).
Compliance with these actions 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 (AMOC) according to
paragraph (m)(1) of this proposed AD.
Explanation of Required Compliance Information
In the FAA's ongoing efforts to improve the efficiency of the AD
process, the FAA developed a process to
[[Page 2294]]
use some civil aviation authority (CAA) ADs as the primary source of
information for compliance with requirements for corresponding FAA ADs.
The FAA has been coordinating this process with manufacturers and CAAs.
As a result, the FAA proposes to incorporate EASA AD 2022-0166 by
reference in the FAA final rule. This proposed AD would, therefore,
require compliance with EASA AD 2022-0166 through that incorporation,
except for any differences identified as exceptions in the regulatory
text of this proposed AD. Using common terms that are the same as the
heading of a particular section in EASA AD 2022-0166 does not mean that
operators need comply only with that section. For example, where the AD
requirement refers to ``all required actions and compliance times,''
compliance with this AD requirement is not limited to the section
titled ``Required Action(s) and Compliance Time(s)'' in EASA AD 2022-
0166. Service information required by EASA AD 2022-0166 for compliance
will be available at regulations.gov by searching for and locating
Docket No. FAA-2023-0013 after the FAA final rule is published.
Airworthiness Limitation ADs Using the New Process
The FAA's process of incorporating by reference MCAI ADs as the
primary source of information for compliance with corresponding FAA ADs
has been limited to certain MCAI ADs (primarily those with service
bulletins as the primary source of information for accomplishing the
actions required by the FAA AD). However, the FAA is now expanding the
process to include MCAI ADs that require a change to airworthiness
limitation documents, such as airworthiness limitation sections.
For these ADs that incorporate by reference an MCAI AD that changes
airworthiness limitations, the FAA requirements are unchanged.
Operators must revise the existing maintenance or inspection program,
as applicable, to incorporate the information specified in the new
airworthiness limitation document. The airworthiness limitations must
be followed according to 14 CFR 91.403(c) and 91.409(e).
The previous format of the airworthiness limitation ADs included a
paragraph that specified that no alternative actions (e.g.,
inspections) or intervals may be used unless the actions and intervals
are approved as an AMOC in accordance with the procedures specified in
the AMOCs paragraph under ``Additional AD Provisions.'' This new format
includes a ``New Provisions for Alternative Actions and Intervals''
paragraph that does not specifically refer to AMOCs, but operators may
still request an AMOC to use an alternative action or interval.
Costs of Compliance
The FAA estimates that this AD, if adopted as proposed, would
affect 239 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 2018-20-07 to be $7,650 (90 work-hours x $85 per work-
hour).
The FAA has determined that revising the existing 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.
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.
