Exemption No. 10611

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION WASHINGTON, DC 20591

In the matter of the petition of

AIRBUS OPERATIONS GmbH Regulatory Docket No. FAA-2012-0429

for an exemption from§ l21.344(f) and Appendix M of Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations

GRANT OF EXEMPTION

By letter dated April 3, 2012, Mr. Peter Anders, Certification Manager Record ing Systems, Airbus, Kreetslag 10, 21129 Hamburg, Germany petitioned the Federal A viation Administration (FAA) on behalf of U.S. operators of certain Airbus airplan

es for an exemption from§ 121.344(f) and Appendix M of Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR). This exemption, if granted, would allow certain U.S. operat ed single-aisle Airbus 318, 319, 320, and 321 airplanes manufactured after August 19, 2002 to continue to operate without complying with the digital flight data rec order (DFDR) sampling rate requirement of 14 CFR § 121.344(f) (1) and Appendix M, p arameter 68.

The petitioner requests relief from the following regulation: Section 121.344(f) (1) requires that all turbine-engine-powered transport category airplanes manufactured after August 19, 2002, record the parameters listed in para graphs (a) (1) through· (a) (88) of that section within the ranges, accuracies, resol utions, and recording intervals specified in Appendix M to part 121. Specifically

, Airbus is requesting relief from the sampling interval requirement for .parameter

68 "Brake Pressure (left and right)" for the affected airplanes.

The petitioner supports its request with the following ihformatibn: Airbus states that for up to 345 of its single-aisle airplanes manufactured after August 19, 2002 and delivered to U.S. operators, the flight data recording specifi cation for normal brake pressure (parameter 68) was established and certified for airplanes with a full landing gear configuration. The petitioner goes on to descr ibe this landing gear configuration as four wheels on the main landing gear with a

n option for an additional four wheels on.a "bogie" landing gear. The petitioner**~tates** 

### that the normal brake pressure recorded data is acquired from the braking a nd steering control unit (BSCU) and data samples are acquired for each wheel every

four seconds. If the bogie landing gear option is not installed on the airplane, then the data from the main landing gear's four wheels (two representing the righ

t**~~de** 

### and two representing the left side) are recorded in the first two seconds o f the four second cycle. The petitioner states that the sampling that occurs in t he third and fourth-second of the four second cycle records non-computed data, and

therefore results in a**two-~econd** 

### gap of data within the four-second cycle. The data frame was certified to record the maximum number of samples that would be wit

h the optional landing gear installed, but the data frame was not modifiable to ad dress the other configuration, which revealed this problem.

Airbus states that although the configuration does not fully comply with the regul ations, there are mitigations in place to assist accident investigators. In the e vent of an accident investigation, the missing two seconds of brake pressure data

can be partially reconstructed. Airbus explains that during periods of normal bra ke pressure in manual brake mode, the two missing samples can be reconstructed wit h the data from parameter 69 "brake pedal application (left and right)." The peti tioner states that this reconstruction has limitations caused by the anti-skid fun ction and differences between commanded and real pressure. The petitioner states that interpolation between the recorded samples of the main landing gear's four wh eels is only possible in the auto mode scenario. Airbus notes that in both brake

pressure reconstruction scenarios, the solutions do not guarantee compliance with the accuracy requirement for parameter 68. However, the petitioner states that th

e subject airplanes comply with 14 CFR § 121.344(f) if the backup brake pressure h ydrau1ic system is used.

The petitioner is proposing to address the noncompliance with the requirements for

parameter 68 by developing a service bulletin that will include software updates of the DFDR data frame in the flight data interface management units to provide a consistent sampling of brake pressure (left and right) at the required sampling in terval independent of landing gear configuration. Airbus estimates that it will t ake two years to develop the service bulletin covering these changes.

The FAA has determined that good cause exists for waiving the requirement fo

r Federal Register publication because the exemption, if granted, would not set a precedent, and any delay in acting on this petition would be detrimental to Airbus

The FAA's analysis is as follows: The FAA commends the petitioner's efforts in disclosing compliance issues with the

existing U.S. fleet of Airbus model 318, 319, 320, and 321 airplanes. The FAA ag

rees that brake pedal pressure parametric data can be partially reconstructed eith

er by interpolating two subsequent brake pressure data samples in each four-second

cycle operating in the auto-brake mode or by using brake application data in the manual brake mode. The FAA finds that recording brake pressure (left and right),

as described above, and using the suggested mitigation techniques temporarily prov ides an acceptable method for continued operation of the subject airplanes for a 1 imited period of time. However, the FAA does not agree with Airbus that the descr ibed mitigation meets the requirement of§ 121.344(f). As Airbus noted, these eff

arts result at best in partial reconstruction of the required data. To continue o perating these noncompliant airplanes, an exemption is required.

In order to assess the impact of this problem on the U.S. Airbus fleet, the FAA re quested, and Airbus provided, a complete list of the serial and tail numbers of th

e Airbus model 318, 319, 320, and 321 airplanes affected by this discovery. Airbu

s identified at least 13 part 121 operators that have one or more airplanes that a

re affected by this petition based on the registration at the time the list was pr ovided.

The FAA has determined from the information provided that good cause exists for gr anting this exemption. However, as the aircraft manufacturer and not a U.S. opera tor, Airbus cannot be granted an exemption from U.S. operating requirements. Exem ption from an operating rule can be granted only to affected operators. Since the

345 affected airplanes represent a significant portion of the U.S. fleet, it is i

n the public interest for the FAA to allow the continued operation of the airplane

s subject to certain conditions. Accordingly, the FAA will grant the relief reque sted by Airbus to the operators of these airplanes when requested.

To make this exemption effective, each affected operator must submit to the FAA a request to use this exemption for its affected airplanes that includes a list of t he affected airplanes that it operates, and each operator must comply with the con ditions and limitations of this exemption cited below. Failure of an operator to apply for eligibility to use this exemption in the time stated iri condition 2 will

be subject to enforcement action for failure to comply with the requirements of S ection 121.344(f) and Appendix M for parameter 68.

The FAA urges Airbus to accelerate the introduction of the service bu1leting to it

s operators. Because of the amount of time the airplanes have been out of complia

nee and the estimated time proposed by Airbus to make the service information avai lable, the FAA will not consider any extensions of time for this exemption beyond that granted here, including time needed for introduction of the service bulletin requirements.

The FAA's Decision: In consideration of the foregoing, I find that a grant of exemption is in the public interest. Therefore, pursuant to the authority contained in**4~** U.S.C. §§ 40113 and 44701, delegated to me by the Administrator, the petition for an exempti

on from 14 CFR § 121.344(f) and Appendix M is granted to the extent necessary to a llow the operators of the Airbus model 318, 319, 320 and 321airplanes listed herei

n, to temporarily operate these airplanes subject to the conditions and limitation

s listed below.

Conditions and Limitations: 1. This exemption only applies to the airplanes listed in the attached table. 2. In order to continue the operation of any airplane listed in this exemption, ea ch operator of an affected airplane must, within 90 days of the issuance of this e xemption, submit a letter to its principal inspector that includes a request to us

e this exemption and:

a. A list of the airplanes that the operator has determined are subject of this ex emption, identified by model, serial and current registration numbers; and b. Acknowledgement of the conditions and limitations listed in this exemption as t he basis for continued operation of the airplane. 3. The letter required in item 2 must also be filed in Regulatory Docket No. FAA2012-0429 by the operator requesting the relief. 4. This exemption allows the subject airplanes to operate with the DFDR recording the normal brake pressure parameter with a two-second 'gap' of data within each fo ur-second cycle as described in this exemption. No other relief from any flight re corder provision is granted by this exemption. 5. Use of this exemption does not transfer to subsequent operators of an affected airplane without the prior written approval of the FAA, including compliance with the filing requirements of this exemption by the operator to which an airplane is transferred. 6. A copy of this exemption must be retained with the operator's DFDR correlation documentation as specified in 14 CFR 121.344(j) until the airplane identified in t his exemption has been modified to correct this noncompliance. 7. In the event of an accident or incident after which the DFDR data must be sent

to the FAA or the National Transportation Safety Board, the operator must provide

a copy of this exemption. 8. Within 90 days of receipt of the Airbus modification service bulletins, the ope rator must provide to its principal avionics inspector a schedule for the completi

on of the new installation. Such schedule may not extend beyond the date of termi nation of this exemption.

This exemption terminates on the sooner of the installation of the software update

correcting the problem as stated above, or 24 months after the date of the exempt ion, unless sooner superseded or rescinded.
