SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Streamlined Issuance of AD 

The FAA is implementing a new 

process for streamlining the issuance of 

ADs related to MCAI. This streamlined 

process will allow us to adopt MCAI 

safety requirements in a more efficient 

manner and will reduce safety risks to 

the public. This process continues to 

follow all FAA AD issuance processes to 

meet legal, economic, Administrative 

Procedure Act, and Federal Register 

requirements. We also continue to meet 

our technical decision-making 

responsibilities to identify and correct 

unsafe conditions on U.S.-certificated 

products. 

mstockstill on PROD1PC62 with RULES

Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 20 / Wednesday, January 31, 2007 / Rules and Regulations 4415 

This AD references the MCAI and 

related service information that we 

considered in forming the engineering 

basis to correct the unsafe condition. 

The AD contains text copied from the 

MCAI and for this reason might not 

follow our plain language principles. 

Discussion 

The Civil Aviation Authority of Israel 

(CAAI), which is the aviation authority 

for Israel, has issued Israeli 

Airworthiness Directive 52–06–11–08, 

dated November 28, 2006 (referred to 

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

unsafe condition for the specified 

products. The unsafe condition is 

incomplete closure of the main entry 

door, which may result in the door 

opening in flight, causing damage to 

wing, fuselage, engine, and/or tail, and 

possible damage to the airplane. The 

MCAI requires amending the airplane 

flight manuals to include additional 

procedures for verifying complete 

closure and locking of the main entry 

door. You may obtain further 

information by examining the MCAI in 

the AD docket. 

FAA’s Determination and Requirements 

of This 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, they have notified us 

of the unsafe condition described in the 

MCAI and service information 

referenced above. We are issuing this 

AD because we evaluated all the 

information provided by the State of 

Design Authority and determined the 

unsafe condition exists and is likely to 

exist or develop on other products of the 

same type design. 

Differences Between the 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 required different 

actions in this AD from those in the 

MCAI in order to follow FAA policies. 

Any such differences are described in a 

separate paragraph of the AD. These 

requirements take precedence over the 

actions copied from the MCAI. 

FAA’s Determination of the Effective 

Date 

An unsafe condition exists that 

requires the immediate adoption of this 

AD. The FAA has found that the risk to 

the flying public justifies waiving notice 

and comment prior to adoption of this 

rule because there have been two 

incidents of main entry doors opening 

in flight, both at relatively low altitude 

and airspeeds. Since it cannot be shown 

the airplane can continue safe operation 

and return to the nearest airport after 

such an event in any phase of flight, we 

have determined that loss of an airplane 

is possible unless immediate actions are 

taken. Therefore, we determined that 

notice and opportunity for public 

comment before issuing this AD are 

impracticable and that good cause exists 

for making this amendment effective in 

fewer than 30 days. 

Comments Invited 

This AD is a final rule that involves 

requirements affecting flight safety, and 

we did not precede it by notice and 

opportunity for public comment. We 

invite you to send any written relevant 

data, views, or arguments about this AD. 

Send your comments to an address 

listed under the ADDRESSES section. 

Include ‘‘Docket No. FAA–2007–27077; 

Directorate Identifier 2006–NM–286–

AD’’ at the beginning of your comments. 

We specifically invite comments on the 

overall regulatory, 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:// 

dms.dot.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 

We determined that this AD would 

not have federalism implications under 

Executive Order 13132. This 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 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 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 AD: 

2007–03–05 Gulfstream Aerospace LP 

(Formerly Israel Aircraft Industries, 

Ltd.): Amendment 39–14916. Docket No. 

FAA–2007–27077; Directorate Identifier 

2006–NM–286–AD. 

Effective Date 

(a) This airworthiness directive (AD) 

becomes effective February 15, 2007. 

Affected ADs 

(b) None. 

Applicability 

(c) This AD applies to Gulfstream Model 

Gulfstream 100 airplanes; and Model Astra 

SPX and 1125 Westwind Astra airplanes; 

mstockstill on PROD1PC62 with RULES

4416 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 20 / Wednesday, January 31, 2007 / Rules and Regulations 

certificated in any category; all serial 

numbers. 

Reason 

(d) The unsafe condition is incomplete 

closure of the main entry door, which may 

result in the door opening in flight, causing 

damage to wing, fuselage, engine, and/or tail, 

and possible damage to the airplane. The 

mandatory continuing airworthiness 

information (MCAI) requires amending the 

airplane flight manuals to include additional 

procedures for verifying complete closure 

and locking of the main entry door. 

Actions and Compliance 

(e) Unless already done, do the following 

actions. Within 10 days after the effective 

date of this AD, amend section IV, Normal 

Procedures, of the following Gulfstream 

airplane flight manuals (AFMs): Model 1125 

Astra, 25W–1001–1; Model Astra SPX, SPX–

1001–1; and Model G100, G100–1001–1; as 

applicable; to include the following 

statement. Insertion of copies of this AD at 

the appropriate places of the AFMs is 

acceptable. 

‘‘1. BEFORE ENGINE START: (PRE and 

POST Mod 20052/Gulfstream Service 

Bulletin 100–31–284): CABIN DOOR—

CLOSED (Physically verify door latch handle 

pin is fully engaged in the handle lock). 

2. BEFORE TAXIING: Change the CABIN 

DOOR procedure as follows (POST Mod 

20052/Gulfstream Service Bulletin 100–31–

284): Check CABIN DOOR light—OUT. 

3. BEFORE TAKE-OFF: Insert between the 

POSITION lights switch and the THRUST 

LEVERS procedures: (PRE Mod 20052/ 

Gulfstream Service Bulletin 100–31–284): 

Check CABIN DOOR light—OUT (50% N1 

may be required). 

(POST Mod 20052/Gulfstream Service 

Bulletin 100–31–284): Check CABIN DOOR 

light—OUT; CABIN DOOR SEAL light—OUT 

(50% N1 may be required).’’

Note 1: Mod 20052 is equivalent to 

Gulfstream Service Bulletin 100–31–284, 

dated August 17, 2006. 

Note 2: This AD may be accomplished by 

a holder of a Private Pilot’s License. 

FAA AD Differences 

Note 3: This AD differs from the MCAI 

and/or service information as follows: We 

revised the order in which the AFM 

procedures for verifying closure and locking 

of the main entry door appear in the MCAI. 

We also removed one procedure under 

‘‘BEFORE TAXIING’’ for verifying the cabin 

door seal light is out (Post Mod 20052/Post 

Gulfstream Service Bulletin 100–31–284) and 

for verifying the cabin door light is out (Pre 

Mod 20052/Pre Gulfstream Service Bulletin 

100–31–284).
