### : Federal Aviation Administration, DOT. **ACTION** 

### : Final rule. **SUMMARY** 

### : This amendment supersedes three existing airworthiness directives (AD); applicable to certain Boeing Model 767 – 200, – 300, and – 300F series airplanes. One AD currently requires modification of the nacelle strut and wing structure for certain Boeing Model 767 – 200, — 300, and — 300F series airplanes powered by Pratt & Whitney engines. The second AD currently requires a similar modification for certain Boeing Model 767 – 200, – 300, and – 300F series airplanes powered by General Electric engines. The third AD currently requires repetitive inspections for cracking of the outboard pitch load fittings of the wing front spar, and corrective action if necessary, for certain Boeing Model 767 – 200 series airplanes. The third AD also provides a terminating action for the repetitive inspections, which is optional for uncracked pitch load fittings. This amendment requires, for airplanes subject to the first and second existing ADs on which certain modifications have been accomplished previously, reworking the aft pitch load fitting, and installing a new diagonal brace fuse pin. This amendment also requires, for airplanes subject to the third existing AD, replacing the outboard pitch load fitting of the wing front spar with a new, improved fitting, which terminates certain currently required repetitive inspections. The actions specified by this amendment are intended to prevent fatigue cracking in primary strut structure, which could result in separation of the strut and engine from the airplane. This action is intended to address the identified unsafe condition. **DATES**

### : A proposal to amend part 39 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 39) by superseding the following ADs was published in the Federal Register on February 11, 2004 (69 FR 6587):

• AD 2001 – 02 – 07, amendment 39 – 12091 (66 FR 8085, January 29, 2001), which is applicable to certain Boeing Model 767 – 200, – 300, and – 300F series airplanes powered by Pratt & Whitney engines.

• AD 2001 – 06 – 12, amendment 39 – 12159 (66 FR 17492, April 2, 2001), applicable to certain Boeing Model 767 – 200, – 300, and – 300F series airplanes powered by General Electric engines.

## 51003 Federal Register / Vol. 69, No. 158 / Tuesday, August 17, 2004 / Rules and Regulations

• AD 2001 – 08 – 23, amendment 39 – 12200 (66 FR 21069, April 27, 2001), applicable to certain Boeing Model 767 – 200 series airplanes.

The action proposed to continue to require modification of the nacelle strut and wing structure, as currently required by AD 2001 – 02 – 07 and AD 2001 – 06 – 12. The action also proposed to continue to require repetitive inspections for cracking of the outboard pitch load fittings of the wing front spar, and corrective action if necessary, as currently required by AD 2001 – 08 – 23. The action also proposed to continue to provide a terminating action for the repetitive inspections, which is optional for uncracked pitch load fittings. For certain airplanes on which certain modifications have been accomplished previously, the action proposed to add new requirements for reworking the aft load pitch fitting, and installing a new diagonal brace fuse pin. For certain other airplanes, the action proposed to add a new requirement for replacing the outboard pitch load fitting of the wing front spar with a new, improved fitting on the left- and right-hand sides of the airplane, which would terminate repetitive inspections currently required by AD 2001 – 08 – 23. Comments

Interested persons have been afforded an opportunity to participate in the making of this amendment. The FAA has duly considered the single comment received. Request To Clarify Required Actions

The commenter states that the Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing Service Bulletin 767 – 54 – 0081, Revision 1, dated February 7, 2002, specify installing a new pitch load fitting with a new part number. The commenter states that the Accomplishment Instructions do not specify reworking the aft load pitch fitting, as stated in the ‘‘ Differences Between Proposed AD and Service Bulletins ’’ section of the proposed AD. The commenter requests that we revise the proposed AD to clarify that any operator that has accomplished the strut improvement modification per the original issue of Boeing Service Bulletin 767 – 54 – 0081, dated July 29, 1999, must accomplish the additional rework in Boeing Service Bulletin 767 – 54 – 0081, Revision 1. The commenter notes that this is supported by ‘‘ Note 7 (1) ’’ of the proposed AD, which indicates that no further action is needed if aft pitch load fittings with certain part numbers are installed.

We do not agree with the commenter ’ s statement that the Accomplishment Instructions in Revision 1 of the service bulletin do not specify reworking the aft load pitch fitting. The commenter is correct that the Accomplishment Instructions do specify installing a new pitch load fitting with a new part number for airplanes not modified per the original issue of the service bulletin. However, Paragraph CB. under ‘‘ Additional Work Required— Group 3 through 12 Airplanes ’’ in the Accomplishment Instructions of the service bulletin specifies reworking the affected aft pitch load fitting and installing the diagonal brace with a new fuse pin for airplanes with an aft pitch load fitting with certain part numbers.

However, we agree that clarifying paragraph (l) of this AD would be helpful. (We note that the paragraph that the commenter identifies as ‘‘ Note 7 (1) ’’ is actually paragraph (l) of this AD —with a (lower-case) letter ‘‘ L, ’’ not with a number ‘‘ 1. ’’ Paragraph (l) is independent from Note 7.) Paragraph (d) of this AD requires that strut modifications performed after the effective date of this AD be done per Revision 1 of that service bulletin. The requirements of paragraph (l) of this AD should apply only to airplanes that have been modified before the effective date of this AD per the original issue of Boeing Service Bulletin 767 – 54 – 0081. We recognize that the wording in paragraph (l) of the proposed AD could inadvertently require extra work for any operator who accomplished Revision 1 of the service bulletin before the effective date of this AD. This was not our intent. Therefore, for clarification, we have revised paragraph (l) of this AD to apply only to subject airplanes ‘‘ on which the modification required by paragraph (d) of this AD has been accomplished per the original issue of Boeing Service Bulletin 767 – 54 – 0081. *** ’’ Conclusion

After careful review of the available data, including the comment noted above, we have determined that air safety and the public interest require the adoption of the rule as proposed. Cost Impact

There are approximately 619 airplanes of the affected design in the worldwide fleet. We estimate that 255 airplanes of U.S. registry will be affected by this AD.

The following table shows the estimated costs associated with the actions currently required by ADs 2001 – 02 – 07, 2001 – 06 – 12, and 2001 – 08 – 23, at an average labor rate of $65 per work hour:

### For affected airplanes, the new inspection to determine the part number of the aft load pitch fittings that is required by this AD will take approximately 1 work hour per airplane to accomplish, at an average labor rate of $65 per work hour. Based on these figures, the cost impact of this VerDate jul<14>2003 13:00 Aug 16, 2004 Jkt 203001 PO 00000 Frm 00009 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 E:\FR\FM\17AUR1.SGM 17AUR1

## 51004 Federal Register / Vol. 69, No. 158 / Tuesday, August 17, 2004 / Rules and Regulations requirement is estimated to be $65 per airplane.

For affected airplanes, the new replacement of the outboard pitch load fittings that is required by this AD takes approximately 14 work hours per airplane to accomplish, at an average labor rate of $65 per work hour. Required parts cost approximately $14,438 per airplane. Based on these figures, the cost impact of this requirement is estimated to be $15,348 per airplane.

The cost impact figures discussed above are based on assumptions that no operator has yet accomplished any of the current or proposed requirements of this AD action, and that no operator would accomplish those actions in the future if this AD were not adopted. The cost impact figures discussed in AD rulemaking actions represent only the time necessary to perform the specific actions actually required by the AD. These figures typically do not include incidental costs, such as the time required to gain access and close up, planning time, or time necessitated by other administrative actions; however, as noted previously, time to gain access and close up has been included for certain actions in this AD. Regulatory Impact

The regulations adopted herein 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. Therefore, it is determined that this final rule does not have federalism implications under Executive Order 13132.

For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this action (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) 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.
