Standard Instrument Approach Procedures, Weather Takeoff Minimums; Miscellaneous Amendments
This amendment establishes, amends, suspends, or revokes Standard Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs) and/or Weather Takeoff Minimums for operations at certain airports. These regulatory actions are needed because of the adoption of new or revised criteria, or because of changes occurring in the National Airspace System, such as the commissioning of new navigational facilities, addition of new obstacles, or changes in air traffic requirements. These changes are designed to provide safe and efficient use of the navigable airspace and to promote safe flight operations under instrument flight rules at the affected airports.
IFR Altitudes; Miscellaneous Amendments
This amendment adopts miscellaneous amendments to the required IFR (instrument flight rules) altitudes and changeover points for certain Federal airways, jet routes, or direct routes for which a minimum or maximum en route authorized IFR altitude is prescribed. This regulatory action is needed because of changes occurring in the National Airspace System. These changes are designed to provide for the safe and efficient use of the navigable airspace under instrument conditions in the affected areas.
Agency Information Collection Activity Under OMB Review, Request for Comments; Clearance of a New Information Collection Activity, Air Carriers Listing of Leading Outsource Maintenance Providers
The FAA invites public comments about our intention to request the Office of Management and Budget's (OMB) approval for a new information collection. The FAA will use the data from the proposed collection to target those leading outsource maintenance providers that may have a higher risk level which in turn would merit an increase of FAA surveillance.
Modification of Class E Airspace; Wellington Municipal Airport, KS
An examination of the controlled airspace for Wellington Municipal Airport, KS has revealed a discrepancy in the Airport Reference Point (ARP) and the size of the Class E airspace area. This action corrects the ARP and modifies the size of the Class E5 airspace area beginning at 700 feet above the surface. The radius of the airspace area is expanded from within a 6.3-mile radius to within a 6.4 mile radius of the airport. This action brings the Class E5 airspace area into compliance with FAA directives.
Modification of Class E Airspace; Sheldon Municipal Airport, IA
This action modifies the size of the Class E5 airspace area beginning at 700 feet above the surface at Sheldon, IA to contain Instrument Flight Rule (IFR) operations in controlled airspace. The radius of the airspace area is expanded from within a 6.4-mile radius to within a 6.9-mile radius of the airport. This action brings the Class E5 airspace area into compliance with FAA directives.
Airworthiness Directives; Rolls-Royce Corporation (RRC) (formerly Allison Engine Company, Allison Gas Turbine Division, and Detroit Diesel Allison) Models 250-C28, -C28B, and -C28C Turboshaft Engines
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for Rolls-Royce Corporation (formerly Allison Engine Company, Allison Gas Turbine Division, and Detroit Diesel Allison) (RRC) Models 250-C28, - C28B, and -C28C turboshaft engines. This AD requires a onetime visual inspection of the seal joint in each passage between airfoils at the hub and shroud of third-stage turbine wheels, part number (P/N) 6899383. This AD results from reports of three failed third-stage turbine wheels and from the manufacturer's analysis of those failures. We are issuing this AD to prevent loss of power and uncommanded engine shutdown due to failure of the third-stage turbine wheel.
Advisory Circular 33.4-3, Instructions for Continued Airworthiness; Aircraft Engine High Intensity Radiated Fields (HIRF) and Lightning Protection Features
This notice announces the issuance of Advisory Circular (AC) 33.4-3, Instructions for Continued Airworthiness; Aircraft Engine High Intensity Radiated Fields (HIRF) and Lightning Protection Features. This AC sets forth acceptable methods of compliance for aircraft engines with the provisions of Sec. 33.4, Instructions for Continued Airworthiness of Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR). This AC provides guidance for developing instructions for continued airworthiness to ensure the continued airworthiness of aircraft engine HIRF and Lightning protection features.
Airworthiness Directives; Various Transport Category Airplanes Manufactured by McDonnell Douglas
The FAA is revising an existing airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to various transport category airplanes manufactured by McDonnell Douglas. We issued that AD to require a one-time test of the fire extinguishers for the engine and auxiliary power unit (APU), as applicable, to determine the capability of the Firex electrical circuits to fire discharge cartridges, and troubleshooting actions if necessary. This new AD removes certain transport category airplanes from the applicability of the existing AD. This AD results from reports indicating that fire extinguishers for the engine and auxiliary power unit had failed to discharge when commanded. We are issuing this AD to prevent failure of the fire extinguishers to fire discharge cartridges, which could result in the inability to put out a fire in an engine or in the APU.
Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Model A330-301, -321, -322, -341, and -342 Airplanes; and Model A340-200 and A340-300 Series Airplanes
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Airbus Model A330-301, -321, -322, -341, and -342 airplanes; and Model A340-200 and A340-300 series airplanes. This AD requires repetitive inspections for cracks in the aft face of the rear spar at the area adjacent to the bolt holes and the end of the build slot, and repair if necessary. The AD also provides an optional terminating action for the repetitive inspections. This AD results from a report that, during fatigue tests of the wing, cracks were found in the vertical web of the rear spar between ribs 1 and 2 having initiated at the build slot. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct fatigue cracking in the vertical web of the wing rear spar, which could result in reduced structural integrity of the wing.
