SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with RULES1
Background
The FAA issued a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 by removing AD 2010–26–05,
Amendment 39–16544 (75 FR 79952,
December 21, 2010) (AD 2010–26–05).
The NPRM was published in the
Federal Register on August 29, 2023 (88
FR 59471). AD 2010–26–05 applied to
certain Dassault Aviation Model Falcon
10 airplanes; Model FAN JET FALCON,
FAN JET FALCON SERIES C, D, E, F,
and G airplanes; Model MYSTERE–
FALCON 20–C5, 20–D5, 20–E5, and 20–
F5 airplanes; and all Model FALCON
2000 and FALCON 2000EX airplanes;
Model MYSTERE–FALCON 200
airplanes; Model MYSTERE–FALCON
50 and MYSTERE–FALCON 900
airplanes, and Model FALCON 900EX
airplanes. AD 2010–26–05 was
prompted by AD 2008–0072, dated
April 18, 2008, issued by the European
Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA),
which is the Technical Agent for the
Member States of the European Union
(EASA AD 2008–0072) (also referred to
as the MCAI). The NPRM was prompted
by a determination that AD 2010–26–05
is no longer necessary, because the
actions specified in the MCAI have been
included in the airworthiness
limitations section of the existing
maintenance manual. EASA issued AD
2008–0072–CN, dated October 5, 2020,
which cancels EASA AD 2008–0072.
Additionally, the FAA has issued the
following ADs to address the unsafe
condition by revising the existing
maintenance or inspection program, as
applicable, to incorporate new or more
restrictive maintenance requirements
and airworthiness limitations, including
the actions specified in AD 2010–26–05.
• AD 2021–04–20, Amendment 39–
21442 (86 FR 12802, March 5, 2021),
which addresses the unsafe condition
for Model Falcon 10 airplanes.
• AD 2020–02–13, Amendment 39–
19827 (85 FR 6744, February 6, 2020),
which addresses the unsafe condition
for Model FAN JET FALCON, FAN JET
FALCON SERIES C, D, E, F, and G
airplanes on which the supplemental

structural inspection program (SSIP) has
been incorporated into the airplane’s
maintenance program.
• AD 2020–03–24, Amendment 39–
19848 (85 FR 11289, February 27, 2020),
which addresses the unsafe condition
for Model MYSTERE–FALCON 20–C5,
20–D5, 20–E5, and 20–F5 airplanes on
which the SSIP (Dassault Service
Bulletin 730) has been embodied into
the airplane’s existing maintenance or
inspection program.
• AD 2020–03–19, Amendment 39–
19843 (85 FR 11280, February 27, 2020),
which address the unsafe condition for
Model MYSTERE–FALCON 20–C5, 20–
D5, 20–E5, and 20–F5 airplanes, except
those on which the SSIP (Dassault
Service Bulletin 730) has been
embodied into the airplane’s existing
maintenance or inspection program.
• AD 2020–01–13, Amendment 39–
19819 (85 FR 5313, January 30, 2020),
which addresses the unsafe condition
for Model MYSTERE–FALCON 200
airplanes.
• AD 2023–05–15, Amendment 39–
22384 (88 FR 22374, April 13, 2023),
which addresses the unsafe condition
for Model MYSTERE–FALCON 50
airplanes.
• AD 2023–04–10, Amendment 39–
22357 (88 FR 20743, April 7, 2023),
which addresses the unsafe condition
for Model MYSTERE–FALCON 900
airplanes.
• AD 2023–02–13, Amendment 39–
22320 (88 FR 8740, February 10, 2023),
which addresses the unsafe condition
for Model FALCON 900EX airplanes.
• AD 2023–04–18, Amendment 39–
22365 (88 FR 15607, March 14, 2023),
which addresses the unsafe condition
for Model FALCON 2000 airplanes.
• AD 2023–04–13, Amendment 39–
22360 (88 FR 20741, April 7, 2023),
which addresses the unsafe condition
for Model FALCON 2000EX airplanes.
The NPRM proposed to remove AD
2010–26–05. The FAA is issuing this
AD to remove AD 2010–26–05.
for ‘‘good cause,’’ finds that those
procedures are ‘‘impracticable,
unnecessary, or contrary to the public
interest.’’ Under this section, an agency,
upon finding good cause, may issue a
final rule without providing notice and
seeking comment prior to issuance.
Further, section 553(d) of the APA
authorizes agencies to make rules
effective in less than 30 days, upon a
finding of good cause. Since the FAA
issued AD 2010–26–05, the actions
specified in the MCAI have been
included in the airworthiness
limitations section of the existing
maintenance manual, and the FAA has
issued ADs to require the incorporation
of those airworthiness limitations.
Therefore, the FAA is issuing this AD to
remove AD 2010–26–05, and the FAA
did not receive any adverse comments
or useful information about this AD
from U.S. operators that necessitates
waiting 30 days for relief from this
requirement. Accordingly, the FAA
finds that good cause exists pursuant to
5 U.S.C. 553(d) for making this
amendment effective in less than 30
days.
Discussion of Final Airworthiness
Directive
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
Comments
The FAA received no comments on
the NPRM or on the determination of
the cost to the public.
Justification for Immediate Adoption
and Determination of the Effective Date
Section 553(b)(3)(B) of the
Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5
U.S.C. 551 et seq.) authorizes agencies
to dispense with notice and comment
procedures for rules when the agency,

Conclusion
The FAA reviewed the relevant data
and determined that air safety requires
adopting this AD as proposed. Except
for minor editorial changes, this AD is
adopted as proposed in the NPRM.
None of the changes will increase the
economic burden on any operator.
This AD removes all actions of AD
2010–26–05. Therefore, the
requirements of AD 2010–26–05 are
terminated.
Related Costs of Compliance
This AD adds no costs. This AD
removes AD 2010–26–05 from 14 CFR
part 39; therefore, operators are no
longer required to show compliance
with that AD.
Authority for This Rulemaking
E:\FR\FM\06DER1.SGM

Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 233 / Wednesday, December 6, 2023 / Rules and Regulations
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.
Regulatory Findings
The FAA determined that this AD
will not have federalism implications
under Executive Order 13132. This AD
will 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 this AD:
(1) Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory
action’’ under Executive Order 12866,
(2) Will not affect intrastate aviation
in Alaska, and
(3) Will not have a significant
economic impact, positive or negative,
on a substantial number of small entities
under the criteria of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14
CFR part 39 by removing AD 2010-26-05, Amendment 39-16544 (75 FR 79952,
December 21, 2010) (AD 2010-26-05). The NPRM was published in the
Federal Register on August 29, 2023 (88 FR 59471). AD 2010-26-05
applied to certain Dassault Aviation Model Falcon 10 airplanes; Model
FAN JET FALCON, FAN JET FALCON SERIES C, D, E, F, and G airplanes;
Model MYSTERE-FALCON 20-C5, 20-D5, 20-E5, and 20-F5 airplanes; and all
Model FALCON 2000 and FALCON 2000EX airplanes; Model MYSTERE-FALCON 200
airplanes; Model MYSTERE-FALCON 50 and MYSTERE-FALCON 900 airplanes,
and Model FALCON 900EX airplanes. AD 2010-26-05 was prompted by AD
2008-0072, dated April 18, 2008, issued by the European Union Aviation
Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical Agent for the Member
States of the European Union (EASA AD 2008-0072) (also referred to as
the MCAI). The NPRM was prompted by a determination that AD 2010-26-05
is no longer necessary, because the actions specified in the MCAI have
been included in the airworthiness limitations section of the existing
maintenance manual. EASA issued AD 2008-0072-CN, dated October 5, 2020,
which cancels EASA AD 2008-0072. Additionally, the FAA has issued the
following ADs to address the unsafe condition by revising the existing
maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or
more restrictive maintenance requirements and airworthiness
limitations, including the actions specified in AD 2010-26-05.
AD 2021-04-20, Amendment 39-21442 (86 FR 12802, March 5,
2021), which addresses the unsafe condition for Model Falcon 10
airplanes.
AD 2020-02-13, Amendment 39-19827 (85 FR 6744, February 6,
2020), which addresses the unsafe condition for Model FAN JET FALCON,
FAN JET FALCON SERIES C, D, E, F, and G airplanes on which the
supplemental structural inspection program (SSIP) has been incorporated
into the airplane's maintenance program.
AD 2020-03-24, Amendment 39-19848 (85 FR 11289, February
27, 2020), which addresses the unsafe condition for Model MYSTERE-
FALCON 20-C5, 20-D5, 20-E5, and 20-F5 airplanes on which the SSIP
(Dassault Service Bulletin 730) has been embodied into the airplane's
existing maintenance or inspection program.
AD 2020-03-19, Amendment 39-19843 (85 FR 11280, February
27, 2020), which address the unsafe condition for Model MYSTERE-FALCON
20-C5, 20-D5, 20-E5, and 20-F5 airplanes, except those on which the
SSIP (Dassault Service Bulletin 730) has been embodied into the
airplane's existing maintenance or inspection program.
AD 2020-01-13, Amendment 39-19819 (85 FR 5313, January 30,
2020), which addresses the unsafe condition for Model MYSTERE-FALCON
200 airplanes.
AD 2023-05-15, Amendment 39-22384 (88 FR 22374, April 13,
2023), which addresses the unsafe condition for Model MYSTERE-FALCON 50
airplanes.
AD 2023-04-10, Amendment 39-22357 (88 FR 20743, April 7,
2023), which addresses the unsafe condition for Model MYSTERE-FALCON
900 airplanes.
AD 2023-02-13, Amendment 39-22320 (88 FR 8740, February
10, 2023), which addresses the unsafe condition for Model FALCON 900EX
airplanes.
AD 2023-04-18, Amendment 39-22365 (88 FR 15607, March 14,
2023), which addresses the unsafe condition for Model FALCON 2000
airplanes.
AD 2023-04-13, Amendment 39-22360 (88 FR 20741, April 7,
2023), which addresses the unsafe condition for Model FALCON 2000EX
airplanes.
The NPRM proposed to remove AD 2010-26-05. The FAA is issuing this
AD to remove AD 2010-26-05.
Discussion of Final Airworthiness Directive
Comments
The FAA received no comments on the NPRM or on the determination of
the cost to the public.
Justification for Immediate Adoption and Determination of the Effective
Date
Section 553(b)(3)(B) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5
U.S.C. 551 et seq.) authorizes agencies to dispense with notice and
comment procedures for rules when the agency, for ``good cause,'' finds
that those procedures are ``impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to
the public interest.'' Under this section, an agency, upon finding good
cause, may issue a final rule without providing notice and seeking
comment prior to issuance. Further, section 553(d) of the APA
authorizes agencies to make rules effective in less than 30 days, upon
a finding of good cause. Since the FAA issued AD 2010-26-05, the
actions specified in the MCAI have been included in the airworthiness
limitations section of the existing maintenance manual, and the FAA has
issued ADs to require the incorporation of those airworthiness
limitations. Therefore, the FAA is issuing this AD to remove AD 2010-
26-05, and the FAA did not receive any adverse comments or useful
information about this AD from U.S. operators that necessitates waiting
30 days for relief from this requirement. Accordingly, the FAA finds
that good cause exists pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(d) for making this
amendment effective in less than 30 days.
Conclusion
The FAA reviewed the relevant data and determined that air safety
requires adopting this AD as proposed. Except for minor editorial
changes, this AD is adopted as proposed in the NPRM. None of the
changes will increase the economic burden on any operator.
This AD removes all actions of AD 2010-26-05. Therefore, the
requirements of AD 2010-26-05 are terminated.
Related Costs of Compliance
This AD adds no costs. This AD removes AD 2010-26-05 from 14 CFR
part 39; therefore, operators are no longer required to show compliance
with that 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
[[Page 84695]]
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.
Regulatory Findings
The FAA determined that this AD will not have federalism
implications under Executive Order 13132. This AD will 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 this AD:
(1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
(2) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
(3) Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
