Airworthiness Directives; Air Tractor, Inc. AT-200, AT-300, AT-400, AT-500, AT-600, AT-800 Series Airplanes
We propose to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2002-25- 09, which applies to certain Air Tractor, Inc. (Air Tractor) AT-250, AT-300, AT-400, and AT-500 series airplanes. AD 2002-25-09 currently requires you to install an overturn skid plate in the cockpit area. Since we issued AD 2002-25-09, we received a report of the bolts attaching the forward end of the original design overturn skid plate to the airframe breaking in an overturn accident. This allowed the skid plate to rotate around the rear attach point and the forward end of the plate to enter the cockpit area. Consequently, this proposed AD would require the installation of a modified skid plate kit or modification to skid plate kits that are already installed, including those already installed on AT-402B, AT-502B, AT-602, and AT-802A series airplanes during production. We are proposing this AD to prevent the front and rear connections of the overturn skid plate to the airplane from breaking, which could allow foreign debris to enter the cockpit during an airplane overturn. This condition, if not corrected, could lead to pilot injury.
Airworthiness Directives; Fokker F.28 Mark 0070 and Mark 0100 Airplanes
We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above. This proposed AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as:

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Model A318, A319, A320, and A321 Series Airplanes
The FAA is correcting a typographical error in an existing airworthiness directive (AD) that was published in the Federal Register on December 10, 2007 (72 FR 69593). The error resulted in a potential for confusion regarding the applicability of the AD. This AD applies to certain Airbus Model A318, A319, A320, and A321 series airplanes. This AD requires inspections of the landing gear (LG) selector valve 40GA and the LG door selector valve 41GA, to identify a possible hydraulic leak. The corrective action includes replacing the LG selector valve 40GA and/or the LG door selector valve 41GA if necessary.
Airworthiness Directives; Boeing Model 757-200, -200PF, and -200CB Series Airplanes
The FAA is superseding an existing airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain Boeing Model 757-200, -200PF, and -200CB series airplanes powered by Rolls-Royce engines. The existing AD currently requires repetitive inspections of the shim installation between the vertical flange and bulkhead, and repair if necessary. The existing AD also requires, for certain airplanes, an inspection for cracking of the four critical fastener holes in the horizontal flange, and repair if necessary. This new AD retains the requirements of the existing AD, and requires that the existing action be performed on airplanes without conclusive records of previous inspections. This AD results from our determination that an operator did not maintain records of previous inspections that are necessary to determine the appropriate corrective actions. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct cracks, loose and broken bolts, and shim migration in the joint between the aft torque bulkhead and the strut-to-diagonal brace fitting, which could result in damage to the strut and consequent separation of the strut and engine from the airplane.

This notice announces the bi-annual meeting of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Aeronautical Charting Forum (ACF) to discuss informational content and design of aeronautical charts and related products, as well as instrument flight procedures development policy and design criteria.
Public Notice of Intent To Rule on Request To Release Surplus Airport Property at Shawnee Regional Airport, Shawnee, OK
The FAA is requesting public comment on the release of land at Shawnee Regional Airport under the provisions of Title 49, USC Section 47153(c).
Airworthiness Directives; Taylorcraft Models A, B, and F Series Airplanes
This document makes a correction to a current notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM), which was published in the Federal Register on February 20, 2008 (73 FR 9239), and applies to certain Taylorcraft Models A, B, and F series airplanes. The NPRM proposed to require inspection of the wing strut attach fittings for corrosion or cracks and would require repair or replacement if corrosion or cracks are found. The docket number was incorrectly referenced at ``FAA-2007- 0177'' instead of ``FAA-2008-0177.'' The NPRM is posted in the FAA- 2008-0177 docket section of the Federal Docket Management System (FDMS). This document corrects the docket number and should further reduce the confusion associated with the inadvertent error.
