**RIN 2120–AA64**

**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 tothe 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 methods:

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.


### 42728 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 137 / Wednesday, July 17, 2013 / Proposed Rules

Other Relevant Rulemaking

• For certain the Boeing Company Model 777–200 and –300 series airplanes: We have issued an NPRM (78 FR 27310, May 10, 2013), which proposes to require installing wiring and changing certain electrical load management system (ELMS) panels and other actions to ensure that the flightcrew is able to turn off electricalpower to the IFE systems and other nonessential electrical systems through a switch in the flight compartment in the event of smoke or flames.

Relevant Service Information

We reviewed Boeing Service Bulletin 777–24–0077, Revision 4, dated October 17, 2012. For information on the procedures and compliance times, see this service information at http:// www.regulations.gov by searching for Docket No. FAA–2013–0544.

Concurrent Service Information

Boeing Service Bulletin 777–24–0077, Revision 4, dated October 17, 2012, specifies concurrent or prior accomplishment of Boeing Service Bulletin 777–23–0176, Revision 2, dated October 26, 2006; and Boeing Service Bulletin 777–24–0087, Revision 2, dated August 16, 2007. For information on the procedures, see this service information

at http://www.regulations.gov by searching for Docket No. FAA–2013–

0544.

Other Service Information

BAE Systems Service Bulletin 233W3202–24–04, Revision 2, dated October 2, 2006, specifies identifying the electrical power control panels 233W3202–12 and 233W3202–13.

GE Aviation Service Bulletin 6000ELM–24–614, Revision 1, dated November 9, 2009, specifies putting the P210 power panel back to the correct standard.

GE Aviation Service Bulletin 6200ELM–24–616, Revision 1, dated March 5, 2010, specifies putting the P210 power panel back to the correct standard.

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:



### E STIMATED 

### 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. $0 $170 ....................................... $8,330.

### 42729 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 137 / Wednesday, July 17, 2013 / Proposed Rules

We estimate the following costs to do any necessary change that would be required based on the results of the proposed inspection. We have no way of determining the number of aircraft that might need this replacement:

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.
List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39
