SUMMARY: We are adopting a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for CFM 

International, S.A. CFM56–3, CFM56– 

3B, and CFM56–3C turbofan engines. 

This AD requires removal from service 

of certain high-pressure turbine (HPT) 

disks manufactured by Global Material 

Solutions of Pratt & Whitney, at reduced 

maximum life limits. This AD was 

prompted by a report of a forging 

process error during manufacture of 

these HPT disks. We are issuing this AD 

to prevent uncontained release of 

multiple turbine blades, damage to the 

engine, and damage to the airplane. 

DATES: This AD is effective January 28, 

2013. 

The Director of the Federal Register 

approved the incorporation by reference 

of a certain publication listed in the AD 

as of January 28, 2013. 

We must receive comments on this 

AD by March 14, 2013. 

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, 

using the procedures found in 14 CFR 

11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion 

We received a report from Global 

Material Solutions of Pratt & Whitney, 

of a forging process error that occurred 

during manufacture of HPT disks, part 

number (P/N) 880026, serial numbers 

(S/Ns) GLKBAA9307, GLKBAA9335, 

GLKBAA9404, GLKBAA9407, and 

GLKBAA9409. During the last forging 

operation of the manufacturing process, 

the forging temperature at the disk rim 

was incorrect. This resulted in below 

allowable creep properties of the HPT 

disk, which reduced the calculated 

maximum life limits. This condition, if 

not corrected, could result in 

uncontained release of multiple turbine 

blades, damage to the engine, and 

damage to the airplane. 

FAA’s Determination 

We are issuing 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. 

AD Requirements 

This AD requires removal of the 

affected HPT disks at reduced maximum 

life limits, as follows: 

• For CFM56–3, CFM56–3B and 

CFM56–3C turbofan engines operating 

to 20,100 lbs maximum takeoff (MTO) 

thrust, remove the HPT disk on or 

before accumulating 8,000 cycles-sincenew (CSN). 

• For CFM56–3B and CFM56–3C 

turbofan engines operating to 22,100 lbs 

MTO thrust, remove the HPT disk on or 

before accumulating 8,000 CSN. 

• For CFM56–3C turbofan engines 

operating to 23,500 lbs MTO thrust, 

remove the HPT disk on or before 

accumulating 4,000 CSN. 

• For HPT disks that have been used 

in multiple models or thrust 

installations, the formula in the ADDED 

DATA section of Pratt & Whitney 

Special Instruction 6F–12 dated 

December 21, 2012 must be used to 

calculate the remaining life on the disk. 

FAA’s Justification and Determination 

of the Effective Date 

No domestic operators use this 

product. Therefore, we find that notice 

and opportunity for prior public 

comment are unnecessary and that good 

cause exists for making this amendment 

effective in less than 30 days. 

Accordingly, this AD is effective upon 

publication. 

Comments Invited 

This AD is a final rule that involves 

requirements affecting flight safety and 

was not preceded by notice and an 

opportunity for public comment. 

However, we invite you to send any 

written data, views, or arguments about 

this AD. Send your comments to an 

address listed under the ADDRESSES

section. Include ‘‘Docket Number FAA– 

2012–1289; Directorate Identifier 2012– 

NE–43–AD’’ at the beginning of your 

comments. We specifically invite 

comments on the overall regulatory, 


pmangrum on DSK3VPTVN1PROD with 
Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 18 / Monday, January 28, 2013 / Rules and Regulations 5713 

economic, environmental, and energy 

aspects of this AD. We will consider all 

comments received by the closing date 

and may amend this 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 

substantive verbal contact we receive 

about this AD. 

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 

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 that this AD: 

(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), 

(3) Will not affect intrastate aviation 

in Alaska to the extent that it justifies 

making a regulatory distinction, 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. 

We prepared a regulatory evaluation 

of the estimated costs to comply with 

this AD and placed it in the AD docket.

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 [Amended] 

■ 2. The FAA amends § 39.13 by adding 

the following new airworthiness 

directive (AD): 

2013–02–02 CFM International, S.A.: 

Amendment 39–17323; Docket No. 

FAA–2012–1289; Directorate Identifier 

2012–NE–43–AD. 

(a) Effective Date 

This AD is effective January 28, 2013. 

(b) Affected ADs 

None. 

(c) Applicability 

This AD applies to CFM International, S.A.

GLKBAA9307, GLKBAA9335, GLKBAA9404, 

GLKBAA9407, or GLKBAA9409, installed. 

(d) Unsafe Condition 

This AD was prompted by a report of a 

forging process error during manufacture of 

these HPT disks. We are issuing this AD to 

prevent uncontained release of multiple 

turbine blades, damage to the engine, and 

damage to the airplane. 

(e) Compliance 

Comply with this AD within the 

compliance times specified, unless already 

done. 

(1) For CFM56–3, CFM56–3B, and CFM56–

HPT disk from service on or before 

accumulating 8,000 cycles-since-new (CSN). 

(2) For CFM56–3B and CFM56–3C turbofan 

engines operating to 22,100 lbs MTO thrust, 

remove the HPT disk from service on or
