1346 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 6 / Monday, January 10, 2011 / Rules and Regulations 

The MCAI requires you to inspect the wing 

main spigot assembly before the next flight 

and replace it. 

Actions and Compliance 

(f) Unless already done, do the following 

actions: 

(1) Within the next 25 hours time-inservice (TIS) after February 14, 2011 (the 

effective date of this AD), inspect both wing 

spar spigot assemblies for cracks using a dyepenetrant or magnetic-particle method 

following Grob Luft- und Raumfahrt Service 

Bulletin TM 306–29; TM 320–5, issue date: 

October 11, 1990. The use of the 

magnification method is prohibited. 

Note 1: If dye-penetrant method is used, 

great care should be exercised when cleaning 

and/or etching the surfaces and interpreting 

surface faults. 

(2) Replace the wing main spigot assembly 

following Grob Luft- und Raumfahrt Service 

Bulletin TM 306–29; TM 320–5, issue date: 

October 11, 1990; and Grob Aircraft Repair 

Instructions No. RI–GROB–001, dated May 

14, 2009, using whichever of the following 

compliance times that apply: 

(i) If cracks are found during the inspection 

required in paragraph (f)(1) of this AD, before 

further flight; or 

(ii) If no cracks are found during the 

inspection required in paragraph (f)(1) of this 

AD, within the next 15 months after February 

14, 2011 (the effective date of this AD). 

FAA AD Differences 

Note 2: This AD differs from the MCAI 

and/or service information as follows: 

(1) The MCAI compliance time required 

the wing main spigot assembly to be 

inspected before the next flight and 

replacement of the wing spar spigot assembly 

no later than December 31, 1992. This AD 

requires inspection within the next 25 hours 

TIS after February 14, 2011 (the effective date 

of this AD), and replacement prior to further 

flight after the inspection where cracks are 

found or 15 months after February 14, 2011 

(the effective date of this AD), if no cracks 

are found. 

(2) In lieu of authorizing a 10x magnifier 

for inspection as specified in the MCAI, this 

AD requires you use either a dye-penetrant 

or magnetic-particle inspection method. 

(3) After the notice of proposed rulemaking 

(NPRM) was issued, we found that the 

material required for the repair was not 

available in the United States and an undue 

cost burden would have been placed on 

operators to get the repair material from 

Germany. This AD adds Grob Aircraft Repair 

Instructions No. RI–GROB–001, dated May 

14, 2009. This repair instruction lists an 

alternate resin/hardener that is available in 

the United States. 

Other FAA AD Provisions 

(g) The following provisions also apply to 

this AD: 

(1) Alternative Methods of Compliance 

(AMOCs): The Manager, Standards Staff, 

FAA, has the authority to approve AMOCs 

for this AD, if requested using the procedures 

found in 14 CFR 39.19. Before using any 

approved AMOC on any airplane to which 

the AMOC applies, notify your appropriate 

principal inspector (PI) in the FAA Flight 

Standards District Office (FSDO), or lacking 

a PI, your local FSDO. Send information to 

ATTN of one of the following individuals: 

(i) Jim Rutherford, Aerospace Engineer, 

FAA, Small Airplane Directorate, 901 Locust, 

Room 301, Kansas City, Missouri 64106; 

telephone: (816) 329–4165; fax: (816) 329– 

4090; or 

(ii) Greg Davison, Aerospace Engineer, 

FAA, Small Airplane Directorate, 901 Locust, 

Room 301, Kansas City, Missouri 64106; 

telephone: (816) 329–4130; fax: (816) 329– 

4090. 

(2) Airworthy Product: For any requirement 

in this AD to obtain corrective actions from 

a manufacturer or other source, use these 

actions if they are FAA-approved. Corrective 

actions are considered FAA-approved if they 

are approved by the State of Design Authority 

(or their delegated agent). You are required 

to assure the product is airworthy before it 

is returned to service. 

(3) Reporting Requirements: For any 

reporting requirement in this AD, a Federal 

agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a 

person is not required to respond to, nor 

shall a person be subject to a penalty for 

failure to comply with a collection of 

information subject to the requirements of 

the Paperwork Reduction Act unless that 

collection of information displays a current 

valid OMB Control Number. The OMB 

Control Number for this information 

collection is 2120–0056. Public reporting for 

this collection of information is estimated to 

be approximately 5 minutes per response, 

including the time for reviewing instructions, 

completing and reviewing the collection of 

information. All responses to this collection 

of information are mandatory. Comments 

concerning the accuracy of this burden and 

suggestions for reducing the burden should 

be directed to the FAA at: 800 Independence 

Ave., SW., Washington, DC 20591, Attn: 

Information Collection Clearance Officer,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

January 8, 2010, we issued AD 2010– 

02–05, which applies to certain Airbus 

Model A300, A300–600, A310, A318, 

A319, A320, A321, A330–300, A340–

Background 

We have received a report indicating 

that certain equipment of the flight deck 

door is defective. This condition, if not 

corrected, could jeopardize flight safety. 

Relevant Service Information 

We reviewed the Airbus service 

bulletins identified in the following 

table.

The service bulletins describe 

procedures for modifying the flight deck 

door. 

FAA’s Determination and Requirements 

of this AD 

Since the unsafe condition described 

is likely to exist or develop on other 

airplanes of the same type design, we 

issued AD 2010–02–05 to prevent 

failure of certain equipment of the flight 

deck door, which could jeopardize flight 

safety. The AD requires modifying the 

flight deck door. 

We have determined that notice and 

opportunity for prior public comment 

on AD 2010–02–05 were contrary to the 

public interest, and good cause existed 

to make the AD effective immediately 

by individual notices issued on January 

8, 2010, to the known U.S. owners and 

operators of affected Airbus Model 

A300, A300–600, A310, A318, A319, 

A320, A321, A330–300, A340–200, 

A340–300, A340–500, A340–600, and 

A380–800 series airplanes; and Model 

A330–201, A330–202, A330–203, A330– 

223, A330–243 airplanes. These 

conditions still exist, and the AD is 

hereby published in the Federal 

Register as an amendment to section 

39.13 of the Federal Aviation 

Regulations (14 CFR 39.13) to make it 

effective to all persons. 

Comments Invited 

This AD is a final rule that involves 

requirements affecting flight safety, and 

we did not provide you with notice and 

an opportunity to provide your 

comments before it becomes effective. 

However, we invite you to send any 

written data, views, or arguments about 

this AD. Send your comments to an 

address listed under the ADDRESSES

section. Include ‘‘Docket No. FAA– 

2010–1279; Directorate Identifier 2009– 

NM–258–AD’’ at the beginning of your 

comments. We specifically invite 

comments on the overall regulatory, 

economic, environmental, and energy 

aspects of this AD. We will consider all 

comments received by the closing date 

and may amend this AD because of 

those comments. 

We will post all comments we 

receive, without change, to http:// 


wwoods2 on DSK1DXX6B1PROD with RULES_PART 1
1348 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 6 / Monday, January 10, 2011 / Rules and Regulations 

www.regulations.gov, including any 

personal information you provide. We 

will also post a report summarizing each 

substantive verbal contact we receive 

about this AD. 

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 

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 that this AD: 

(1) Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory 

action’’ under Executive Order 12866, 

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

DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures 

(44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979), and 

(3) 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. 

You can find our regulatory 

evaluation and the estimated costs of 

compliance in the AD Docket.

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule; request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for the 

products listed above. This emergency 

AD was sent previously to all known 

U.S. owners and operators of these 

airplanes. This AD requires obtaining 

written approval from the Manager, 

Wichita Aircraft Certification Office 

(ACO), to operate the airplane. This 

written approval must clearly state that 

operation is approved per Emergency 

AD 2010–26–54. This AD was prompted 

by a Cessna Model LC41–550FG 

airplane that suffered a significant 

structural failure in the wing during a 

production acceptance flight test. We 

are issuing this AD to prevent 

catastrophic failure of the wing due to 

disbonding of the wing skin from the 

wing spar. 

DATES: This AD is effective January 10, 

2011 to all persons except those persons 

to whom it was made immediately 

effective by Emergency AD 2010–26–54, 

issued on December 17, 2010, which 

contained the requirements of this 

amendment. 

We must receive comments on this 

AD by February 24, 2011. 

ADDRESSES: You may send comments by 

any of the following methods: 

• Federal eRulemaking Portal: Go to

instructions for submitting comments.
