Federal Aviation Administration May 15, 2023 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

Airworthiness Directives; Safran Helicopter Engines, S.A. Engines
Document Number: 2023-10251
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2023-05-15
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Safran Helicopter Engines, S.A. (Safran) Model Arrius 2B2 engines. This proposed AD was prompted by the manufacturer revising the airworthiness limitations section (ALS) of the existing engine maintenance manual (EMM), introducing new and more restrictive tasks and limitations for certain life-limited parts. This proposed AD would require revising the ALS of the existing EMM or instructions for continued airworthiness (ICA) and the existing approved maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, by incorporating the actions and associated thresholds and intervals, including life limits, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is proposed for incorporation by reference (IBR). The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

Airworthiness Directives; Pilatus Aircraft Ltd. Airplanes
Document Number: 2023-10282
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2023-05-15
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Pilatus Aircraft Ltd. (Pilatus) Model PC-24 airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by reports of an electrical burning smell in the cabin without the presence of smoke. This proposed AD would require revising the Limitations Section of the existing airplane flight manual (AFM) for your airplane, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is proposed for incorporation by reference (IBR). The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Amendment of Very High Frequency (VHF) Omnidirectional Range (VOR) Federal Airways V-6, V-338, V-494, and United States Area Navigation (RNAV) Route T-331
Document Number: 2023-10280

Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
This action amends the Very High Frequency (VHF) Omnidirectional Range (VOR) Federal airways V-6, V-338, V-494, and United States Area Navigation (RNAV) route T-331 descriptions to reflect the Squaw Valley, CA, VOR/Distance Measuring Equipment (DME) navigational aid (NAVAID) name changing to the Palisades, CA, VOR/DME. This action only makes editorial amendments to the affected Air Traffic Service (ATS) routes listed above, it does not change the NAVAID identifier (SWR), the ATS route structures, or the Fixes and waypoints on the routes.
Revocation of Colored Federal Airway Blue 38 (B-38) and Blue 40 (B-40); Haines, AK
Document Number: 2023-10311
Type: Rule
Date: 2023-05-15
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS Airplanes
Document Number: 2023-10109
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2023-05-15
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2022-17-09, which applies to certain Airbus SAS Model A350-941 and - 1041 airplanes. AD 2022-17-09 continues to require the actions of AD 2021-16-03 and requires a modification to restore two independent layers of lightning strike protection. Since the FAA issued AD 2022-17- 09, a determination was made that additional airplanes need to perform a modification to restore the two independent layers of lightning strike protection on the wing lower or upper cover. This proposed AD would continue to require the actions in AD 2022-17-09 and would require restoring the two independent layers of lightning strike protection, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is proposed for incorporation by reference (IBR). The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
