Airworthiness Directives; Leonardo S.p.a. Helicopters
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Leonardo S.p.a. Model AB139 and AW139 helicopters. This AD was prompted by the determination that the requirement to accomplish a rated load check (RTC) on certain hoist assemblies may have been inadvertently left out of some aircraft maintenance publications (AMPs). This AD requires performing an RTC on certain part-numbered hoist assemblies with certain part-numbered hoist cables installed and corrective actions if any discrepancies are found as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is incorporated by reference. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

This action proposes to amend VHF Omnidirectional Range (VOR) Federal airways V-161, V-190, and V-307, and revoke V-516. The FAA is proposing this action due to the planned decommissioning of the VOR portion of the Oswego, KS, VOR/Distance Measuring Equipment (VOR/ DME) navigational aid (NAVAID).

The FAA is proposing this action due to the planned decommissioning of the VOR portion of the Borger, TX, VOR/Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC) navigational aid (NAVAID). The Borger VOR is being decommissioned in support of the FAA's VOR Minimum Operational Network (MON) program.

Flight Attendant Duty Period Limitations and Rest Requirements
This action arises out of a statutory mandate in the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2018, which requires rulemaking to increase the minimum rest period for flight attendants in domestic, flag, and supplemental operations who are scheduled for a duty period of 14 hours or less. The statute also requires rulemaking to prohibit a reduction of the rest period under any circumstances. Consistent with the statutory mandate, the FAA proposes to amend its regulations to ensure that flight attendants scheduled to a duty period of 14 hours or less are given a scheduled rest period of at least 10 consecutive hours and that the rest period is not reduced under any circumstances.
