[Docket No. FAA-2009-1021; Directorate Identifier 2009-NM-054-AD; Amendment 39-16217; AD 2009-06-05 R1]
RIN 2120-AA64
 AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of Transportation (DOT).
 ACTION: Final rule.
 SUMMARY: We are revising an existing airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above. This 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: [S]everal cases of wing anti-ice piccolo duct failure reported on  CL-600-2B19 (CRJ) aircraft. Although there have been no failures reported on Challenger aircraft, similar ducts are installed on the * * * [other] Challenger models. 
 Cracking of the wing anti-ice piccolo ducts could result in air leakage, with an adverse effect on the anti-ice air distribution pattern and a possible unannunciated insufficient heat condition. * * * The unsafe condition is anti-ice system air leakage with a possible adverse effect on the anti-ice air distribution pattern and anti-ice capability without annunciation to the flightcrew, and consequent reduced controllability of the airplane. We are issuing this AD to require actions to correct the unsafe condition on these products.
 DATES: This AD becomes effective April 1, 2010. The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in this AD as of April 1, 2010. On April 28, 2009 (74 FR 12225, March 24, 2009), the Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of certain other publications listed in this AD.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Discussion We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR part 39 to revise an existing AD that applies to certain Model CL-600-1A11 (CL-600), CL-600-2A12 (CL-601), and CL-600-2B16 (CL-601-3A, CL-601-3R, and CL-604) airplanes. That NPRM was published in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                     on November 5, 2009 (74 FR 57273), and proposed to revise AD 2009-06-05, Amendment 39-15841 (74 FR 12225, March 24, 2009). That AD required actions intended to address an unsafe condition for the products listed above. Actions Since Issuance of AD 2009-06-05 Since we issued AD 2009-06-05, Bombardier requested that we change paragraphs (f)(2) and (f)(4) of AD 2009-06-05 to allow compliance within 2,000 flight hours or 60 months after the effective date of the AD, whichever occurs first, instead of prior to the accumulation of 2,000 total flight hours or within 60 months after the effective date of the AD, whichever occurs first. We agreed and proposed to revise paragraphs (f)(2) and (f)(4) of AD 2009-06-05 accordingly in the NPRM. The compliance time matches the intent of Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA) AD CF-2008-18, dated May 9, 2008, and represents the maximum interval of time allowable for the affected airplanes to operate safely. Bombardier also requested that we change Table 2 of AD 2009-06-05 to replace references to two temporary revisions (TRs): Canadair TR 600/23, dated August 16, 2006, to the Canadair Challenger Model CL-600-1A11 Airplane Flight Manual (AFM); and Canadair TR 600-1/19, dated August 16, 2006, to the Canadair Challenger Model CL-600-1A11 AFM (Winglets). These two TRs are approved by TCCA, and should be replaced in AD 2009-06-05 with references to the following FAA-approved TRs: Canadair TR 600/22, dated August 16, 2006, to the Canadair Challenger Model CL-600-1A11 AFM; and Canadair TR 600-1/17, dated August 16, 2006, to the Canadair Challenger Model CL-600-1A11 AFM (Winglets). We agreed and proposed to revise Table 2 of AD 2009-06-05 accordingly in the NPRM. Comments We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing this AD. We received no comments on the NPRM or on the determination of the cost to the public. Explanation of Change Made to the Manufacturer Name We have revised this AD to identify the legal name of the manufacturer as published in the most recent type certificate data sheet for the affected airplane models. Explanation of Change to the Alternative Methods of Compliance We have revised the “Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs)” paragraph (g)(1) in this AD to specify the current contact information. Conclusion We reviewed the available data and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting the AD with the changes described previously. We determined that these changes will not increase the economic burden on any operator or increase the scope of the AD.
                    ( print page 8462) Differences Between This AD and the MCAI or Service Information We have reviewed the MCAI and related service information and, in general, agree with their substance. But we might have found it necessary to use different words from those in the MCAI to ensure the AD is clear for U.S. operators and is enforceable. In making these changes, we do not intend to differ substantively from the information provided in the MCAI and related service information. We might also have required different actions in this AD from those in the MCAI in order to follow our FAA policies. Any such differences are highlighted in a Note within the AD. Explanation of Change to Costs of Compliance Since issuance of the NPRM, we have increased the labor rate used in the Costs of Compliance from $80 per work-hour to $85 per work-hour. The Costs of Compliance information, below, reflects this increase in the specified hourly labor rate. Costs of Compliance We estimate that this AD will affect about 108 products of U.S. registry. The actions that are required by AD 2009-06-05 and retained in this AD take about 37 work-hours per product, at an average labor rate of $85 per work hour. Required parts cost about $0 per product. Based on these figures, the estimated cost of the currently required actions is $339,660, or $3,145 per product. 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); 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. We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to comply with this AD and placed it in the AD docket. Examining the AD Docket You may examine the AD docket on the Internet at

 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
 2.The FAA amends § 39.13 by removing Amendment 39-15841 ( 74 FR 12225, March 24, 2009) and adding the following new AD: **2009-06-05R1 Bombardier, Inc.:**
                             Amendment 39-16217. Docket No. FAA-2009-1021; Directorate Identifier 2009-NM-054-AD. Effective Date (a) This airworthiness directive (AD) becomes effective April 1, 2010. Affected ADs (b) This AD revises AD 2009-06-05, Amendment 39-15841. Applicability (c) This AD applies to the airplanes identified in Table 1, paragraphs (c)(1), (c)(2), (c)(3), and (c)(4) of this AD, certificated in any category. Table 1—Airplanes Affected by This AD

 Subject (d) Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code 30: Ice and Rain Protection. Reason (e) The mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) states: There have been several cases of wing anti-ice piccolo duct failure reported on CL-600-2B19 (CRJ) aircraft. Although there have been no failures reported on Challenger aircraft, similar ducts are installed on the * * * [other] Challenger models. Upon investigation, it has been determined that ducts manufactured since June 2000, and installed since 1 August 2000, are susceptible to cracking due to the process used to drill the holes in the ducts. These ducts were installed on CL-600-2B16 aircraft, serial numbers 5469 through 5635 in production, but may also have been installed as replacements on CL-600-1A11, CL-600-2A12 and other CL-600-2B16 aircraft. Cracking of the wing anti-ice piccolo ducts could result in air leakage, with an adverse effect on the anti-ice air distribution pattern and a possible unannunciated insufficient heat condition. As a result, the airplane flight manual (AFM) instructions have been revised 
                            ( print page 8463)
                            to provide proper annunciation of an insufficient heat condition, utilizing existing messages and indications, with instructions, to the pilot, to leave icing conditions if sufficient heat cannot be achieved or maintained. This directive mandates the amendment of the AFM procedures, in addition to checking the part numbers and serial numbers of the installed wing anti-ice piccolo ducts and replacing them as necessary. The unsafe condition is anti-ice system air leakage with a possible adverse effect on the anti-ice air distribution pattern and anti-ice capability without annunciation to the flightcrew, and consequent reduced controllability of the airplane. Actions and Compliance (f) Unless already done, do the following actions. (1) For airplanes identified in paragraphs (c)(1), (c)(2), (c)(3), and (c)(4) of this AD: Within 30 days after the effective date of this AD, revise the Normal and Abnormal Procedures sections of the applicable Canadair Challenger Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) by inserting a copy of the applicable temporary revision (TR) listed in Table 2 of this AD. When the information in the applicable TR is included in the general revisions of the AFM, the general revisions may be inserted in the AFM, as applicable, and the TR may be removed.
