Proposed Amendment of Class E Airspace; Lincoln, ME
Document Number: 2012-18926
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2012-08-02
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
This action proposes to amend Class E Airspace at Lincoln, ME, as the Lincoln Non-Directional Radio Beacon (NDB) has been decommissioned and new Standard Instrument Approach Procedures have been developed at Lincoln Regional Airport. This action would enhance the safety and airspace management of Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at the airport.

Document Number: 2012-18919
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2012-08-02
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
This action proposes to amend Class E airspace at Ontonagon, MI. Additional controlled airspace is necessary to accommodate new Standard Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAP) at Ontonagon County- Schuster Field Airport. Also, this action would rename the airport. The FAA is taking this action to enhance the safety and management of Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations for SIAPs at the airport.
Proposed Amendment of Class E Airspace; Anthony, KS
Document Number: 2012-18917
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2012-08-02

Date: 2012-08-02
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
This action proposes to amend Class E airspace at Guthrie, IA. Decommissioning of the Guthrie Center non-directional radio beacon (NDB) at Guthrie County Regional Airport, Guthrie, IA, has made this action necessary for the safety and management of Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at the airport. Geographic coordinates of the airport would also be adjusted.
Airworthiness Directives; Piper Aircraft, Inc. Airplanes
Document Number: 2012-18618
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2012-08-02
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Piper Aircraft, Inc. (type certificate previously held by The New Piper Aircraft Inc.) PA-28, PA-32, PA-34, and PA-44 airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by reports of control cable assembly failures that may lead to failure of the horizontal stabilator control system and could result in loss of pitch control. This proposed AD would require inspections of the stabilator control system and replacement of parts as necessary. We are proposing this AD to correct the unsafe condition on these products.
Airworthiness Directives; Bombardier, Inc. Airplanes
Document Number: 2012-18588
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2012-08-02
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Bombardier, Inc. Model DHC-8-400 series airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by cases of on-ground failure of the screw cap or end cap of hydraulic accumulators on other airplane models, resulting in high-energy impact damage to adjacent systems and structure. This proposed AD would require inspecting for a part number and replacing the affected parking brake hydraulic accumulator, and relocating the parking brake accumulator, on the subject airplanes. We are proposing this AD to prevent failure of the screw caps and/or end caps of the parking brake hydraulic accumulator, which could result in damage to the airplane's primary structures, with potential adverse effect on the airplane's controllability.
Alaskan Fuel Hauling as a Restricted Category Special Purpose Flight Operation
Document Number: 2012-18557
Type: Rule
Date: 2012-08-02
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
This notice of policy announces Alaskan fuel hauling as a restricted category special purpose operation under Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 21.25(b)(7), for aircraft type-certificated under 14 CFR 21.25(a)(1), for operations within the State of Alaska, to provide bulk fuel to isolated individuals or locations in the State of Alaska.
Standard Instrument Approach Procedures, and Takeoff Minimums and Obstacle Departure Procedures; Miscellaneous Amendments
Document Number: 2012-18521
Type: Rule
Date: 2012-08-02
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
This rule establishes, amends, suspends, or revokes Standard Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs) and associated Takeoff Minimums and Obstacle Departure Procedures 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, adding new obstacles, or changing 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.
