Airworthiness Directives; Cirrus Design Corporation Model SR20 and SR22 Airplanes
Document Number: 05-717
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2005-01-13
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Cirrus Design Corporation (CDC) Model SR20 and SR22 airplanes. This proposed AD would require you to measure and adjust the crew seat break-over bolts and to replace the crew seat recline locks on both crew seats. This proposed AD results from CDC discovering that the crew seats, under emergency landing dynamic loads, may fold forward at less than 26 G required by the regulations. We are issuing this proposed AD to prevent the crew seats from folding forward during emergency landing with dynamic loads with consequent occupant injury.

Special Conditions: Boeing Model 767-300 Airplane; Forward Lower Deck Service/Cargo Compartment
Document Number: 05-660
Type: Rule
Date: 2005-01-13
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
These special conditions are issued for a Boeing Model 767-300 airplane modified by Jet Aviation Engineering Services (JAES), Spring Branch, Texas. This modified airplane will have a novel or unusual design feature when compared to the state of technology envisioned in the airworthiness standards for transport category airplanes. The modification is associated with a forward lower deck compartment that will serve as both a service compartment and a Class C cargo compartment. The applicable airworthiness regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for this design feature. These special conditions contain the additional safety standards that the Administrator considers necessary to establish a level of safety equivalent to that established by the existing airworthiness standards.
Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committee Meeting on Rotorcraft Issues
Document Number: 05-658

Airworthiness Directives; Boeing Model 767-300 Series Airplanes
Document Number: 05-538
Type: Rule
Date: 2005-01-13
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Boeing Model 767-300 series airplanes. This AD requires repetitive functional tests and repetitive replacements of the auxiliary power unit (APU) and engine fire shutoff switches. This proposal also provides an optional terminating action for the repetitive functional tests and replacements. This AD is prompted by a report of the failure of the engine fire shutoff switch in the engine fire control module. We are issuing this AD to prevent mineral build-up on the APU and engine fire shutoff switches, which could lead to the switches failing to discharge fire suppressant to the affected fire zone and result in an uncontrolled engine or APU fire and consequent loss of the airplane.
Airworthiness Directives; Boeing Model 757-200 and -200PF Series Airplanes
Document Number: 05-536
Type: Rule
Date: 2005-01-13
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
The FAA is revising an existing airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Boeing Model 757-200 and -200PF series airplanes. That AD currently requires inspections, adjustments, and functional checks of the engine thrust reverser system; and modification of the engine thrust reverser directional control valve. That AD also requires installation of an additional thrust reverser locking feature and periodic functional tests of the locking feature following installation. This new AD retains the requirements of the existing AD, but removes certain tests and inspections for certain airplanes. This AD is prompted by a determination of an error in the existing AD. We are issuing this AD to prevent deployment of a thrust reverser in flight and subsequent reduced controllability of the airplane.
Airworthiness Directives; Rolls-Royce plc RB211 Trent 875, 877, 884, 884B, 892, 892B, and 895 Series Turbofan Engines
Document Number: 05-485
Type: Rule
Date: 2005-01-13
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
The FAA is superseding an existing airworthiness directive (AD) for Rolls-Royce plc (RR) RB211 Trent 875, 877, 884, 892, 892B, and 895 series turbofan engines with certain part number (P/N) low pressure compressor (LPC) fan blades installed. That AD currently requires initial and repetitive ultrasonic inspections of the fan blade dovetail roots. This AD requires the same actions except at reduced compliance times for certain blades, defines a specific terminating action to the repetitive blade inspection requirements, and adds the 884B series to the applicability. This AD results from a report of a cracked fan blade found before the blade reached the initial inspection threshold of AD 2002-11-08. This AD also results from the need to reduce a repetitive inspection compliance time due to potential breakdown of blade coating and lubrication on certain blades. We are issuing this AD to prevent multiple LPC fan blade failures due to cracks, which could result in uncontained engine failure and possible damage to the airplane.
Airworthiness Directives; Rolls-Royce plc RB211 Trent 700 Series Turbofan Engines
Document Number: 05-484
Type: Rule
Date: 2005-01-13
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
The FAA is superseding an existing airworthiness directive (AD) for Rolls-Royce plc (RR) RB211 Trent 768-60, Trent 772-60, and Trent 772B-60 turbofan engines with low pressure compressor (LPC) fan blade part numbers FK22580, FK23411, FK25441, and FK25968 installed. That AD currently requires initial ultrasonic inspections of the fan blade root with blades removed, repetitive ultrasonic inspections of the fan blade root with blades removed or installed, and ultrasonic inspection of the fan blade root to be done with the fan blades removed at least every third inspection. This AD requires the same inspections but at lower thresholds and intervals, and eliminates the requirement for ultrasonic inspection with the fan blades removed at least every third inspection. This AD results from analysis of flight data returned to RR, that shows a need for consistent inspection thresholds for all engine models. We are issuing this AD to prevent possible multiple LPC fan blade failures, which could result in an uncontained engine failure and damage to the airplane.
