Robinson R-22/R-44 Special Training and Experience Requirements
This action continues the existing special training and experience requirements in Special Federal Aviation Regulation (SFAR) No. 73 until the SFAR is revised or rescinded. SFAR No. 73 requires special training and experience for pilots operating the Robinson model R-22 or R-44 helicopters in order to maintain the safe operation of these helicopters. SFAR No. 73 also requires special training and experience for certified flight instructors conducting student instruction or flight reviews in the R-22 or R-44.
Environmental Impact Statements: National Summary of Rescinded Notices of Intent
The FHWA is issuing this notice to advise the public that 12 States have rescinded Notices of Intent (NOI) to prepare 17 Environmental Impact Statements (EISs) for proposed highway projects. FHWA Division Offices, in consultation with the State Departments of Transportation (State DOT), determined that eight projects were no longer viable and have formally cancelled the projects. No resources will be expended on these projects; the environmental review process has been terminated. Seven projects are being reevaluated and, or have been reduced in scope and now meet the criteria for an Environmental Assessment (EA) or a Categorical Exclusion (CE). Two projects rescinded NOIs and will issue new NOIs as the project limits and impacts have changed.
Airworthiness Directives; Air Tractor, Inc. Models AT-802 and AT-802A Airplanes
We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Air Tractor, Inc. (Air Tractor) Models AT-802 and AT-802A airplanes. This proposed AD would require installing a rudder-aileron interconnect cable system shield kit and securing any items stowed in the baggage compartment using tie downs and/or a cargo net until the cable shield kit is installed. This proposed AD results from a report of the rudder pedal cable becoming jammed in flight. We are proposing this AD to prevent jamming of the rudder-aileron interconnect cables by unsecured items in the baggage compartment, which could result in failure of the rudder-aileron interconnect cable system. This failure could lead to loss of control.
Airworthiness Directives; Learjet Model 60 Airplanes
We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Learjet Model 60 airplanes. This proposed AD would require revising the Tire-Servicing section of the airplane maintenance manual and revising the Tires Limitation section of the airplane flight manual to incorporate revised procedures for servicing tires and checking for proper tire inflation. This proposed AD results from a report of the main landing gear tires blowing out during a takeoff roll. We are proposing this AD to prevent tire failure, which could result in failures of the braking and thrust reverser systems. In a critical phase of operation such as takeoff, loss of airplane control may result.
