Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 169 / Wednesday, August 31, 2011 / Proposed Rules 54145 

76 standard 2nd stage Turbine NGVs (i.e., 

with flexible hub). 

This non compliance would increase hot 

gas ingestion and generate an increase of 

temperature in the Gas Generator (GG) 

turbine rotor, potentially resulting in turbine 

damage and an uncommanded in-flight 

shutdown. On a single-engine helicopter, this 

could ultimately lead to an emergency 

autorotation landing. 

We are issuing this AD to prevent overtemperature damage of the gas generator 

turbine, which could result in an 

uncommanded in-flight engine shutdown, 

and a subsequent forced autorotation landing 

or accident. 

Compliance 

(e) Comply with this AD within the 

compliance times specified, unless already 

done. 

Daily Checks 

(f) Starting from the effective date of this 

AD, perform a daily check (after last flight of 

the day) for: 

(1) Normal rundown time of the gas 

generator rotor; and 

(2) The free rotation of the gas generator 

rotor; and 

(3) No grinding noise during the rundown 

check, and during the free rotation check of 

the gas generator rotor. 

(g) Guidance on performing the daily 

checks can be found in the Maintenance 

Manual, task 71–02–09–760–801 and task 

05–20–01–200–801. 

(h) If the engine fails any of these daily 

checks, remove the engine from service 

before further flight. 

Inspection of Repaired 2nd Stage Turbine 

NGVs 

(i) Inspect the 2nd stage turbine NGV for 

a non-conforming hole configuration, at the 

compliance times in Table 1 of this AD. 

Guidance on 2nd stage turbine NGV nonconforming hole configuration can be found 

in Turbomeca MSB No. A292 72 0829, 

Version B, dated December 13, 2010. 

TABLE 1—INSPECTION COMPLIANCE TIMES

If accumulated Gas Generator (GG) Cycles-in-Service (CIS) on the effective date 

of this AD are: 

Then inspect: 

(1) Fewer than 1,200 CIS on both the 1st 

and 2nd stage turbines.

Before exceeding 1,500 GG CIS. 

(2) 1,200 or more but fewer than 1,800 CIS 

on either the 1st or 2nd stage turbines.

Before exceeding 300 GG CIS after the effective date of this AD but not to exceed 2,000 CIS on 

either the 1st or 2nd stage turbines. 

(3) 1,800 or more but fewer than 2,400 CIS 

on either the 1st or 2nd stage turbine.

Before exceeding 200 GG CIS after the effective date of this AD but not to exceed 2,500 CIS on 

either the 1st or 2nd stage turbines. 

(4) Greater than 2,400 CIS on either the 

1st or 2nd stage turbine.

Before exceeding 100 GG CIS after the effective date of this AD but not to exceed 3,000 CIS on 

either the 1st or 2nd stage turbine. 

(j) If the configuration of the holes in the 

repaired 2nd stage turbine NGV are 

conforming, then no further action is 

required. 

(k) If the configuration of the holes in the 

repaired 2nd stage turbine NGV are nonconforming, then before further flight: 

(1) Replace the 2nd stage turbine NGV with 

a 2nd stage turbine NGV eligible for 

installation; and 

(2) Replace the 1st stage turbine disc and 

2nd stage turbine disc with discs eligible for 

installation. 

Terminating Action 

(l) Complying with paragraph (i) and either 

paragraph (j) or paragraphs (k)(1) through 

(k)(2) of this AD, or replacing the M03 

module with an M03 module that is eligible 

for installation, is terminating action for the 

requirements of this AD. 

Installation Prohibition 

(m) Do not reinstall the 1st stage turbine 

disc and the 2nd stage turbine disc removed 

in paragraph (k)(2) of this AD into any 

engine. 

(n) After the effective date of this AD, do 

not install an M03 module that has 

incorporated TU 202 but not incorporated TU 

148, unless the module is in compliance with 

the requirements of this AD. 

(o) After the effective date of this AD, do 

not install an M03 module that has 

incorporated TU 76 but not incorporated TU 

148, unless the module is in compliance with 

the requirements of this AD. 

FAA AD Differences 

(p) This AD differs from the Mandatory 

Continuing Airworthiness Information 

(MCAI) and/or service information as 

follows: 

(1) This AD does not require sending data 

to Turbomeca to confirm whether Turbomeca 

MSB No. A292 72 0829, Version B, dated 

December 13, 2010, is applicable to the 

operator’s engine; the MCAI does. 

(2) This AD does not incorporate by 

reference (IBR) Turbomeca MSB No. A292 72 

0829, Version B, dated December 13, 2010; 

the MCAI does. 

(3) This AD requires replacing nonconforming 2nd stage turbine NGVs and 1st 

stage and 2nd stage turbine discs that were 

operated with non-conforming 2nd stage 

turbine NGVs but does not require replacing 

affected M03 modules. The MCAI requires 

replacing affected M03 modules with M03 

modules eligible for installation. 

Definition 

(q) For the purpose of this AD, a 

conforming repaired 2nd stage turbine NGV 

is one with cooling holes in the forward 

inner flange, and with no cooling holes in the 

rear flange. 

Alternative Methods of Compliance 

(AMOCs) 

(r) The Manager, Engine Certification 

Office, FAA, has the authority to approve 

AMOCs for this AD, if requested using the 

procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19.

54146 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 169 / Wednesday, August 31, 2011 / Proposed Rules 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking 

(NPRM). 

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for the 

products listed above. This proposed 

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: 

Several runway excursion incidents and a 

single accident have occurred in the past 

with Dornier 328–100 aeroplanes, where the 

power lever could not be operated as 

intended during the landing roll-out. * * * 

Recurrence of such an event under similar 

conditions, if not corrected, could result in 

further cases of runway excursion, possibly 

resulting in damage to the aeroplane and 

injury to the occupants. 

* * * * * 

The proposed AD would require 

actions that are intended to address the 

unsafe condition described in the MCAI.

Discussion 

The European Aviation Safety Agency 

(EASA), which is the Technical Agent 

for the Member States of the European 

Community, has issued EASA 

Airworthiness Directive 2009–0196, 

dated September 4, 2009 (referred to 

after this as ‘‘the MCAI’’), to correct an 

unsafe condition for the specified 

products. The MCAI states: 

Several runway excursion incidents and a 

single accident have occurred in the past 

with Dornier 328–100 aeroplanes, where the 

power lever could not be operated as 

intended during the landing roll-out. * * * 

Recurrence of such an event under similar 

conditions, if not corrected, could result in 

further cases of runway excursion, possibly 

resulting in damage to the aeroplane and 

injury to the occupants. 

A modification to the power lever control 

box has been designed to prevent further 

power lever handling difficulties. 

For the reasons described above, this 

[EASA] AD requires a modification of the 

power lever control box as a retrofit for the 

entire fleet of 328–100 aeroplanes. 

The required actions also include 

revising the airplane flight manual 

(AFM) to include Dornier 328–100 

Temporary Revisions (TR) 04–078, 04– 

079, and 04–080, all dated March 15, 

2010, to the Abnormal Procedures 

section of the 328 Support Services 

328–100 AFM; and Dornier 328–100 

TRs 05–064, 05–065, and 05–066, all 

dated February 13, 2009, to the Normal 

Procedures section of the 328 Support 

Services 328–100 AFM; to introduce 

modification of the engine control box 

assembly. You may obtain further 

information by examining the MCAI in 

the AD docket. 

Relevant Service Information 

328 Support Services GmbH has 

issued Service Bulletin SB–328–76–486, 

Revision 3, dated April 7, 2010; and 

Dornier 328–100 TRs 04–078, 04–079, 

and 04–080, all dated March 15, 2010, 

to the Abnormal Procedures section of 

the 328 Support Services 328–100 AFM; 

and Dornier 328–100 TRs 05–064, 05– 

065, and 05–066, all dated February 13, 

2009, to the Normal Procedures section 

of the 328 Support Services 328–100 

AFM. The actions described in this 

service information are intended to 

correct the unsafe condition identified 

in the MCAI. 

FAA’s Determination and Requirements 

of This Proposed AD 

This product has been approved by 

the aviation authority of another 

country, and is approved for operation 

in the United States. Pursuant to our 

bilateral agreement with the State of 

Design Authority, we have been notified 

of the unsafe condition described in the 

MCAI and service information 

referenced above. We are proposing this 

AD because we evaluated all pertinent 

information and determined an unsafe 

condition exists and is likely to exist or 

develop on other products of the same 

type design. 

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 proposed 

different actions in this AD from those 

in the MCAI in order to follow FAA 

policies. Any such differences are 

highlighted in a NOTE within the 

proposed AD. 


Emcdonald on DSK2BSOYB1PROD with PROPOSALS
Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 169 / Wednesday, August 31, 2011 / Proposed Rules 54147 

Costs of Compliance 

Based on the service information, we 

estimate that this proposed AD would 

affect about 20 products of U.S. registry. 

We also estimate that it would take 

about 79 work-hours per product to 

comply with the basic requirements of 

this proposed AD. The average labor 

rate is $85 per work-hour. Required 

parts would cost about $35,700 per 

product. Where the service information 

lists required parts costs that are 

covered under warranty, we have 

assumed that there will be no charge for 

these parts. As we do not control 

warranty coverage for affected parties, 

some parties may incur costs higher 

than estimated here. Based on these 

figures, we estimate the cost of the 

proposed AD on U.S. operators to be 

$848,300, or $42,415 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 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); 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 proposed AD and placed it in the 

AD docket.

to that in the TRs specified in table 1 of this 

AD, and these TRs may be removed. 

FAA AD Differences 

Note 2: This AD differs from the MCAI 

and/or service information as follows: 

(1) Although the MCAI tells you to do an 

inspection for discrepancies, 328 Support 

Services Service Bulletin SB–328–76–486, 

Revision 3, dated April 7, 2010, does not 

include this action. The off-wing inspection 

included in the MCAI is not required to 

address the unsafe condition. The 

modification addresses the identified unsafe 

condition. Therefore, this AD does not 

include that requirement. 

(2) Although the MCAI and service 

information do not include revising the AFM, 

this AD includes that requirement. The TRs 

specified in table 1 of this AD introduce preflight operational tests of the warning system 

modification, along with abnormal 

procedures that provide guidance to the 

flightcrew in the event of various potential 

warning system faults. These procedures 

must be adopted at the same time the 

modification is installed to ensure proper use 

and operation of the power lever warning 

system. This has been coordinated with 

EASA. 

Other FAA AD Provisions 

(j) The following provisions also apply to 

this AD: 

(1) Alternative Methods of Compliance 

(AMOCs): The Manager, International 

Branch, ANM–116, Transport Airplane 

Directorate, FAA, has the authority to 

approve AMOCs for this AD, if requested 

using the procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19. 

In accordance with 14 CFR 39.19, send your 

request to your principal inspector or local 

Flight Standards District Office, as 

appropriate. If sending information directly 

to the International Branch, send it to ATTN: 

Tom Groves, Aerospace Engineer, 

International Branch, ANM–116, Transport 

Airplane Directorate, FAA, 1601 Lind 

Avenue, SW., Renton, Washington 98057–

227–1149. Information may be e-mailed to: 

9-ANM-116-AMOC-REQUESTS@faa.gov. 

Before using any approved AMOC, notify 

your appropriate principal inspector, or 

lacking a principal inspector, the manager of 

the local flight standards district office/ 

certificate holding district office. The AMOC 

approval letter must specifically reference 

this AD. 

(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.
