Airworthiness Directives; the Boeing 

Company Airplanes 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking 

(NPRM). 

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for certain 

the Boeing Company Model 777–200 

series airplanes. This proposed AD was 

prompted by reports of smoke or flames 

in the passenger cabin of various 

transport category airplanes, related to 

the wiring for the passenger cabin inflight entertainment (IFE) system, cabin 

lighting, and passenger seats. This 

proposed AD would require, for certain 

airplanes, doing an inspection of the 

electrical power control panel for a 

certain part number, and corrective 

action if necessary; and for certain other 

airplanes, installing a new electrical 

power control panel, and making 

changes to the wiring and certain 

electrical load management system 

(ELMS) panels. We are proposing this 

AD to ensure that the flightcrew is able 

to turn off electrical power to the IFE 

systems and other non-essential 

electrical systems through a switch in 

the flight compartment in the event of 

smoke or flames. In the event of smoke 

or flames in the airplane flight deck or 

passenger cabin, the flightcrew’s 

inability to turn off electrical power to 

the IFE system and other non-essential 

electrical systems could result in the 

inability to control smoke or flames in 

the airplane flight deck or passenger 

cabin during a non-normal or 

emergency situation, and consequent 

loss of control of the airplane. 

DATES: We must receive comments on 

this proposed AD by September 3, 2013. 

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, 

using the procedures found in 14 CFR 

11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following

comments on the overall regulatory, 

economic, environmental, and energy 

aspects of this proposed AD. We will 

consider all comments received by the 

closing date and may amend this 

proposed AD because of those 

comments. 

We will post all comments we 

receive, without change, to http:// 

www.regulations.gov, including any 

personal information you provide. We 

will also post a report summarizing each

Discussion 

We have received reports of smoke or 

flames in the passenger cabin of various 

transport category airplanes (the Boeing 

Company Model MD–11 and DC–9 

airplanes and Lockheed Martin 

Corporation/Lockheed Martin 

Aeronautics Company Model L–1011 

series airplanes), related to the wiring 

for the passenger cabin IFE system, 

cabin lighting, and passenger seats. In 

response to these reports of smoke or 

flames in the passenger cabin of various 

models of transport category airplanes, 

we conducted a comprehensive IFE 

systems review. 

The systems review determined that, 

in order to minimize the risk of smoke 

or flames in the passenger cabin, a 

switch is needed in the flight 

compartment to enable the flightcrew to 

turn off electrical power to the IFE 

system and other non-essential 

electrical systems. In the event of smoke 

or flames in the airplane flight deck or 

passenger cabin, the flightcrew’s 

inability to turn off power to the IFE 

system and other non-essential 

electrical systems could result in the 

inability to control smoke or flames in 

the airplane flight deck or passenger 

cabin during a non-normal or 

emergency situation.

FAA’s Determination 

We are proposing this AD because we 

evaluated all the relevant information 

and determined the unsafe condition 

described previously is likely to exist or 

develop in other products of the same 

type design. 

Proposed AD Requirements 

This proposed AD would require 

accomplishing the actions specified in 

the service information described 

previously. 

The phrase ‘‘related investigative 

actions’’ might be used in this proposed 

AD. ‘‘Related investigative actions’’ are 

follow-on actions that (1) are related to 

the primary action, and (2) are actions 

that further investigate the nature of any 

condition found. Related investigative 

actions in an AD could include, for 

example, inspections. 

In addition, the phrase ‘‘corrective 

actions’’ might be used in this proposed 

AD. ‘‘Corrective actions’’ are actions 

that correct or address any condition 

found. Corrective actions in an AD 

could include, for example, repairs. 

Costs of Compliance 

We estimate that this proposed AD 

affects 49 airplanes of U.S. registry. 

We estimate the following costs to 

comply with this proposed AD: 

ESTIMATED COSTS

Action Labor cost Parts cost Cost per product Cost on U.S. 

operators 

Inspection/installation and 

changes.

Up to 28 work-hours × $85 

per hour = $2,380.

$1,436 Up to $3,816 .......................... Up to $186,984. 

Concurrent installation (Boeing Service Bulletin 777– 

23–0176, Revision 2, dated 

October 26, 2006).

2 work-hours × $85 per hour 

= $170.

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 proposed AD 

would not have federalism implications 

under Executive Order 13132. This 

proposed AD would 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 proposed regulation: 

(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, 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.
