Airworthiness Directives; Bombardier, Inc. Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for 
certain Bombardier, Inc. Model CL-600-2C10 (Regional Jet Series 700, 
701, & 702), CL-600-2D15 (Regional Jet Series 705), and CL-600-2D24 
(Regional Jet Series 900) airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by 
reports of failures of a hydraulic accumulator's screw-cap/end cap 
while on the ground that resulted in loss of use of that hydraulic 
system and in high-energy impact damage to adjacent systems and 
structures. This proposed AD would require an inspection for part 
numbers; repetitive inspections for any cracking of certain hydraulic 
system accumulators, and replacement, if necessary; and revising the 
maintenance program to include a life limit for certain hydraulic 
system accumulators. We are proposing this AD to prevent loss of use of 
a hydraulic system, which could result in reduced controllability of 
the airplane.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by May 4, 2012.

Discussion

    The Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA), which is the aviation 
authority for Canada, has issued Canadian Airworthiness Directive CF-
2010-35R1, dated June 28, 2011 (referred to after this as ``the 
MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for the specified products. The 
MCAI states:

    Seven cases of on-ground hydraulic accumulator screw cap/end cap 
failure have been experienced on CL-600-2B19 aeroplanes resulting in 
loss of the associated hydraulic system and high-energy impact 
damage to adjacent systems and structure. The lowest number of 
flight cycles accumulated at the time of failure, to date, has been 
6,991 flight cycles.
    Although there have been no failures to date on any CL-600-2C10, 
CL-600-2D15 or CL-600-2D24 aeroplanes, similar accumulators to those 
installed on the CL-600-2B19, are installed. The part numbers (P/Ns) 
of the accumulators installed on CL-600-2C10, CL-600-2D15 and CL-
600-2D24 aeroplanes are 900096-1 (Hydraulic System No. 1 and 
Hydraulic System No. 2 accumulators), 900097-1 (Hydraulic System No. 
3 accumulator) and 08-60204-001 (Inboard Brake and Outboard Brake 
accumulators).
    A detailed analysis of the calculated line of trajectory of a 
failed screw cap/end cap for each of the accumulators has been 
conducted, resulting in the identification of

[[Page 16194]]

several areas where systems and/or structural components could 
potentially be damaged. Although all of the failures to date have 
occurred on the ground, an in-flight failure affecting such 
components could potentially have an adverse effect on the 
controllability of the aeroplane.
    This [Canadian] directive gives instructions to conduct [an 
inspection to determine if certain hydraulic accumulators are 
installed and, if necessary,] repetitive ultrasonic inspections [for 
cracking] of the Hydraulic System No. 1, Hydraulic System No. 2, 
Hydraulic System No. 3, Inboard Brake and Outboard Brake 
accumulators, P/Ns 900096-1, 900097-1, and 08-60204-001, that are 
not identified by the letter ``M'' or ``T'' after the S/N [serial 
number] on the identification plate.
* * * * *

    Required actions include revising the maintenance program to 
include a life limit for certain accumulators, and for airplanes on 
which cracking is found during an ultrasonic inspection, replacing the 
accumulator with a new accumulator containing the letter ``M'' or 
``T'', as applicable, after the serial number on the identification 
plate or with a new accumulator with a different part number, and 
eventual replacement of certain accumulators with new accumulators. You 
may obtain further information by examining the MCAI in the AD docket.

Maintenance Requirements Manual, CSP B-053, Revision 11, dated October 
20, 2010.
    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.

Costs of Compliance

    Based on the service information, we estimate that this proposed AD 
would affect about 389 products of U.S. registry. We also estimate that 
it would take up to 21 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 $8,988 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 up to $4,190,697, or $10,773 per product, per inspection cycle.
    In addition, we estimate that any necessary follow-on actions would 
take up to 7 work-hours and require parts costing $8,988, for a cost of 
$9,583 per product. We have no way of determining the number of 
products that may need these actions.

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);
    3. Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska; 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 proposed AD and placed it in the AD docket.
