Airworthiness Directives; Technify 

Motors GmbH Reciprocating Engines 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for certain 

Technify Motors GmbH (type certificate 

previously held by Thielert Aircraft 

Engines GmbH) TAE 125–02–99 and 

TAE 125–02–114 reciprocating engines. 

This AD requires removal of each highpressure (HP) fuel pump before 300 

flight hours (FHs) in service or within 

55 FHs after the effective date of the AD, 

whichever occurs later. This AD was 

prompted by in-flight shutdowns on 

airplanes with TAE 125–02 engines. We 

are issuing this AD to prevent failure of 

the HP fuel pump, which could result 

in damage to the engine and damage to 

the airplane. 

DATES: This AD becomes effective 

October 2, 2014. 

ADDRESSES: For service information 

identified in this AD, contact Technify 

Motors GmbH, Platanenstrasse 14, D–

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion 

We issued a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 

part 39 by adding an AD that would 

apply to the specified products. The 

NPRM was published in the Federal 

Register on May 23, 2014 (79 FR 29693). 

The NPRM proposed to correct an 

unsafe condition for the specified 

products. The MCAI states: 

In-flight shut down occurrences have been 

reported on aeroplanes equipped with TAE 

125–02 engines. The initial results of the 

investigations showed that abnormal high 

wear of the high pressure fuel pumps was the 

probable cause of the engine failure. 

This condition, if not corrected, could 

result in further cases of engine power loss 

events and consequent potential loss of 

control of the aeroplane. 

Comments 

We gave the public the opportunity to 

participate in developing this AD. We 

received no comments on the NPRM (79 

FR 29693, May 23, 2014). 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with RULES

Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 167 / Thursday, August 28, 2014 / Rules and Regulations 51241 

Conclusion 

We reviewed the available data and 

determined that air safety and the 

public interest require adopting this AD 

as proposed. 

Costs of Compliance 

We estimate that this AD affects 160 

engines installed on airplanes of U.S. 

registry. We also estimate that it will 

take about 1 hour per engine to comply 

with this AD. The average labor rate is 

$85 per hour. Based on these figures, we 

estimate the cost of the AD on U.S. 

operators to be $13,600. 

Authority for This Rulemaking 

Title 49 of the United States Code 

specifies the FAA’s authority to issue 

rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, 

section 106, describes the authority of 

the FAA Administrator. ‘‘Subtitle VII: 

Aviation Programs,’’ describes in more 

detail the scope of the Agency’s 

authority. 

We are issuing this rulemaking under 

the authority described in ‘‘Subtitle VII, 

Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: 

General requirements.’’ Under that 

section, Congress charges the FAA with 

promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in 

air commerce by prescribing regulations 

for practices, methods, and procedures 

the Administrator finds necessary for 

safety in air commerce. This regulation 

is within the scope of that authority 

because it addresses an unsafe condition 

that is likely to exist or develop on 

products identified in this rulemaking 

action. 

Regulatory Findings 

We determined that this AD will not 

have federalism implications under 

Executive Order 13132. This AD will 

not have a substantial direct effect on 

the States, on the relationship between 

the national government and the States, 

or on the distribution of power and 

responsibilities among the various 

levels of government. 

For the reasons discussed above, I 

certify this AD: 

(1) Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory 

action’’ under Executive Order 12866, 

(2) Is not a ‘‘significant rule’’ under 

the DOT Regulatory Policies and 

Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 

1979), 

(3) Will not affect intrastate aviation 

in Alaska to the extent that it justifies 

making a regulatory distinction, and 

(4) Will not have a significant 

economic impact, positive or negative, 

on a substantial number of small entities 

under the criteria of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act. 

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39 

Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation 

safety, Incorporation by reference, 

Safety. 

Adoption of the Amendment 

Accordingly, under the authority 

delegated to me by the Administrator, 

the FAA amends 14 CFR part 39 as 

follows: 

PART 39—AIRWORTHINESS 

DIRECTIVES 

■ 1. The authority citation for part 39 

continues to read as follows: 

Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701. 

§ 39.13 [Amended] 

■ 2. The FAA amends § 39.13 by adding 

the following new airworthiness 

directive (AD): 

2014–17–03 Technify Motors GmbH (Type 

Certificate previously held by Thielert 

Aircraft Engines GmbH): Amendment 

39–17956; Docket No. FAA–2014–0179; 

Directorate Identifier 2014–NE–03–AD. 

(a) Effective Date 

This AD becomes effective October 2, 2014. 

(b) Affected ADs 

None. 

(c) Applicability 

This AD applies to TAE 125–02–99 and 

TAE 125–02–114 reciprocating engines with 

a high-pressure (HP) fuel pump, part number 

(P/N) 05–7312–K005301 or P/N 05–7312– 

K005302. 

(d) Reason 

This AD was prompted by in-flight 

shutdowns on airplanes with TAE 125–02 

engines. We are issuing this AD to prevent 

failure of the HP fuel pump, which could 

result in damage to the engine and damage 

to the airplane. 

(e) Actions and Compliance 

Comply with this AD unless already done. 

Remove each HP fuel pump, P/N 05–7312– 

K005301 and P/N 05–7312–K005302, before 

300 flight hours (FHs) in service or within 55 

FHs after the effective date of this AD, 

whichever occurs later. 

(f) Installation Prohibition 

After the effective date of this AD, do not 

install a TAE 125–02–99 or TAE 125–02–114 

engine with HP fuel pump, P/N 05–7312– 

K005301 or P/N 05–7312–K005302, onto any 

airplane. 

(g) Alternative Methods of Compliance 

(AMOCs) 

The Manager, Engine Certification Office, 

FAA, may approve AMOCs to this AD. Use 

the procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19 to 

make your request.
