Federal Aviation Administration October 19, 2005 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

Airworthiness Directives; Boeing Model 747 Airplanes
Document Number: 05-20882
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2005-10-19
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
The FAA proposes to supersede three existing airworthiness directives (ADs) that apply to certain Boeing Model 747 airplanes. The existing ADs currently require repetitive inspections of the body station (BS) 2598 bulkhead, and corrective action if necessary. This proposed AD would add a requirement to modify the bulkhead, including a one-time inspection and corrective action if necessary, which would terminate certain repetitive inspections. This proposed AD would also require a post-modification inspection of the modified area. This proposed AD results from new reports of cracking in all three areas that require inspection in accordance with the existing ADs. We are proposing this AD to prevent fatigue cracking of the BS 2598 bulkhead structure, which could result in inability of the structure to carry horizontal stabilizer flight loads, and reduced controllability of the airplane.
Standard Instrument Approach Procedures, Weather Takeoff Minimums; Miscellaneous Amendments
Document Number: 05-20850
Type: Rule
Date: 2005-10-19
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
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.
