2011–13–07 Dassault Aviation: 

Amendment 39–16730. Docket No. 

FAA–2011–0259; Directorate Identifier 

2010–NM–196–AD. 

Effective Date 

(a) This airworthiness directive (AD) 

becomes effective July 27, 2011. 

Affected ADs 

(b) This AD supersedes AD 2010–02–02, 

Amendment 39–16173. 

Applicability 

(c) This AD applies to Dassault Aviation 

Model FALCON 7X airplanes, certificated in 

any category, all serial numbers. 

Subject 

(d) Air Transport Association (ATA) of 

America Code 34: Navigation. 

Reason 

(e) The mandatory continuing 

airworthiness information (MCAI) states: 

Several occurrences of untimely radioaltimeter lock-up have been reported, where 

the failed radio-altimeter indicated a negative 

distance to the ground despite the aircraft 

was flying at medium or high altitude. 

A locked radio-altimeter #1 leads to 

untimely inhibition of warnings that could be 

displayed along with certain abnormal 

conditions while the avionic system switches 

into landing mode during altitude cruise. 

* * * * * 

[Untimely radio altimeter lock-up] may 

cause the crew to be unaware of possible 

system failures that could require urgent 

crew’s actions. 

* * * * * 

Compliance 

(f) You are responsible for having the 

actions required by this AD performed within 

the compliance times specified, unless the 

actions have already been done. 

Restatement of Requirements of AD 2010– 

02–02, With Revised Affected Airplanes 

(g) For airplanes on which modification 

M0566 or Dassault Service Bulletin Falcon 

7X–100 has not been accomplished: Within 

14 days after January 28, 2010 (the effective 

date of AD 2010–02–02), revise the 

Limitations Section of the Dassault Falcon 7X 

Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) to include the 

following statement. This may be done by

general revisions may be inserted into the 

AFM, and the copy of this AD may be 

removed from the AFM. 

New Requirements of This AD 

(h) For airplanes on which M0566 or 

Dassault Service Bulletin Falcon 7X–100 has 

been accomplished: Within 14 days after the 

effective date of this AD, revise the 

Limitations Section of the Dassault Falcon 7X 

AFM to include the following statement. This 

may be done by inserting a copy of this AD 

in the AFM. Doing this revision terminates 

the requirements of paragraph (g) of this AD. 

‘‘If radio-altimeter #1 lock-up conditions 

occur in flight, revert to the correct radioaltimeter output, in accordance with the 

instructions of Falcon 7X AFM procedure

notice of proposed rulemaking to 

establish Class E airspace at Brunswick 

Executive Airport, Brunswick, ME (75 

FR 14824) Docket No. FAA–2011–0116. 

Interested parties were invited to 

participate in this rulemaking effort by 

submitting written comments on the 

proposal to the FAA. No comments 

were received. Subsequent to 

publication, a typographical error was 

found in the controlled airspace radius 

mileage. This action will make the 

correction.

36286 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 120 / Wednesday, June 22, 2011 / Rules and Regulations 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in paragraph 6005 of FAA 

Order 7400.9U dated August 18, 2010, 

and effective September 15, 2010, which 

is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

Part 71.1. The Class E airspace 

designations listed in this document 

will be published subsequently in the 

Order. 

The Rule 

This amendment to Title 14, Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 

establishes Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

at Brunswick, ME to provide controlled 

airspace required to support the 

standard instrument approach 

procedures developed for Brunswick 

Executive Airport. This action is 

necessary for the safety and 

management of IFR operations at the 

airport. Brunswick Executive Airport 

uses the same facilities as the former 

Brunswick Naval Air Station (NAS), 

which closed in September 2010 (see 75 

FR 57848). 

The FAA has determined that this 

regulation only involves an established 

body of technical regulations for which 

frequent and routine amendments are 

necessary to keep them operationally 

current, is non-controversial and 

unlikely to result in adverse or negative 

comments. It, therefore, (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) 

does not warrant preparation of a 

Regulatory Evaluation as the anticipated 

impact is so minimal. Since this is a 

routine matter that will only affect air 

traffic procedures and air navigation, it 

is certified that this rule, when 

promulgated, will not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. 

The FAA’s authority to issue rules 

regarding aviation safety is found in 

Title 49 of the United States Code. 

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. 

This rulemaking is promulgated 

under the authority described in 

Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 

40103. Under that section, the FAA is 

charged with prescribing regulations to 

assign the use of airspace necessary to 

ensure the safety of aircraft and the 

efficient use of airspace. This regulation 

is within the scope of that authority as 

it establishes Class E airspace at 

Brunswick, ME.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

On April 12, 2011, the FAA published 

in the Federal Register a notice of 

proposed rulemaking to amend 

controlled airspace at Newcastle, WY 

(76 FR 20281). Interested parties were 

invited to participate in this rulemaking 

effort by submitting written comments 

on the proposal to the FAA. No 

comments were received. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in paragraph 6005 of FAA 

Order 7400.9U dated August 18, 2010, 

and effective September 15, 2010, which 

is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Class E airspace designations 

listed in this document will be 

published subsequently in that Order. 

The Rule 

This action amends Title 14 Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 by 

amending Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface, 

at Mondell Field Airport, to 

accommodate IFR aircraft using the 

RNAV (GPS) standard instrument 

approach procedures at the airport. This 

action is necessary for the safety and 

management of IFR operations. The 

airport name is being changed from 

Mondell Field, to Mondell Field 

Airport, Newcastle, WY. With the 

exception of minor corrections made to 

the regulatory text at the request of the 

FAA’s Aeronautical Products Office, 

this rule is the same as that proposed in 

the NPRM. 

The FAA has determined this 

regulation only involves an established 

body of technical regulations for which 

frequent and routine amendments are 

necessary to keep them operationally 

current. Therefore, this regulation: (1) Is 

not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ 

under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not 

a ‘‘significant rule’’ under DOT
