AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), Department of 

Transportation (DOT). 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for all 

Dassault Aviation Model FAN JET 

FALCON and FAN JET FALCON 

SERIES C, D, E, F, and G airplanes. This 

AD was prompted by our determination 

of the need for a revision to the airplane 

airworthiness limitations to introduce 

changes to the maintenance 

requirements and airworthiness 

limitations. This AD requires revising 

the maintenance or inspection program, 

as applicable, to incorporate a new 

airworthiness limitations section. We 

are issuing this AD to prevent reduced 

structural integrity of the airplane. 

DATES: This AD becomes effective 

February 25, 2015. 

The Director of the Federal Register 

approved the incorporation by reference 

of a certain publication listed in this AD 

as of February 25, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion 

We issued a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 

part 39 by adding an AD that would 

apply to all Dassault Aviation Model 

FAN JET FALCON and FAN JET 

FALCON SERIES C, D, E, F, and G 

airplanes. The NPRM published in the 

Federal Register on September 15, 2014 

(79 FR 54917). 

The European Aviation Safety Agency 

(EASA), which is the Technical Agent 

for the Member States of the European 

Community, has issued EASA 

Airworthiness Directive 2014–0021, 

dated January 20, 2014 (referred to after 

this as the Mandatory Continuing 

Airworthiness Information, or ‘‘the 

MCAI’’), to correct an unsafe condition 

for all Dassault Aviation Model FAN 

JET FALCON and FAN JET FALCON 

SERIES C, D, E, F, and G airplanes. The 

MCAI states: 

The airworthiness limitations and 

maintenance requirements for the Fan Jet 

Falcon type design are included in Dassault 

Aviation Falcon 20 (F20) Aircraft 

Maintenance Manual (AMM) chapter 5–40 

and are approved by the European Aviation 

Safety Agency (EASA). EASA issued AD 

2008–0221 to require accomplishment of the 

maintenance tasks, and implementation of 

the airworthiness limitations, as specified in 

Dassault Aviation F20 AMM chapter 5–40 at 

revision 13. 

Since that [EASA] AD was issued, Dassault 

Aviation issued F20 AMM chapter 5–40 at 

revision 15, which introduces new or more 

restrictive maintenance requirements and/or 

airworthiness limitations. 

Dassault Aviation AMM chapter 5–40 

revision 15 contains among other changes the 

following requirements: 

—Specific instructions applicable to 

F20GF (serial number 397); 

—Check of overpressure tightness on 

pressurization control regulating valves; 

—Check of overpressure relief valve 

vacuum supply lines. 

A new document reference number which 

comes with DGT 131028 revision 15 is 

replacing DMD11755. 

The maintenance tasks and airworthiness 

limitations, as specified in the F20 AMM 

chapter 5–40, have been identified as 

mandatory actions for continued 

airworthiness of the Fan Jet Falcon type 

design. Failure to comply with AMM chapter 

5–40 at revision 15 might constitute an 

unsafe condition. 

For the reasons described above, this 

[EASA] AD requires implementation of the 

maintenance tasks and airworthiness 

limitations, as specified in Dassault Aviation 

F20 AMM chapter 5–40 at revision 15. 

The unsafe condition is reduced 

structural integrity of the airplane. You 

may examine the MCAI in the AD 

docket on the Internet at http://

www.regulations.gov/

#!documentDetail;D=FAA-2014-0626- 

0002. 

Comments 

We gave the public the opportunity to 

participate in developing this AD. We 

received no comments on the NPRM (79 

FR 54917, September 15, 2014) or on the 

determination of the cost to the public. 

Conclusion 

We reviewed the relevant data and 

determined that air safety and the 

public interest require adopting this AD 

as proposed except for minor editorial 

changes. We have determined that these 

minor changes: 

• Are consistent with the intent that 

was proposed in the NPRM (79 FR 

54917, September 15, 2014) for 

correcting the unsafe condition; and 

• Do not add any additional burden 

upon the public than was already 

proposed in the NPRM (79 FR 54917, 

September 15, 2014). 

Costs of Compliance 

We estimate that this AD affects 168 

airplanes of U.S. registry. 

We also estimate that it would take 

about 1 work-hour per product to 


wreier-aviles on DSK4TPTVN1PROD with RULES
2816 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 13 / Wednesday, January 21, 2015 / Rules and Regulations 

comply with the basic requirements of 

this AD. The average labor rate is $85 

per work-hour. Based on these figures, 

we estimate the cost of this AD on U.S. 

operators to be $14,280, or $85 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 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 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.

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for certain 

ATR—GIE Avions de Transport 

Re ́gional Model ATR42–500 airplanes, 

and Model ATR72–212A airplanes. This 

AD was prompted by a report that, 

during an inspection of an airplane on 

the production line, interference was 

detected between the electrical harness 

and a bonding lead due to an incorrect 

installation of the affected bonding lead. 

This AD requires a detailed inspection 

for damage or incorrect routing of the 

bonding lead routing above the 120VU 

shelf, and if any damage or incorrect 

routing is found, repairing damage or 

modifying the bonding lead routing. We 

are issuing this AD to detect and correct 

installation of the bonding lead, which 

could cause arcing and chafing, and 

could possibly result in an uncontrolled 

fire. 

DATES: This AD becomes effective 

February 25, 2015. 

The Director of the Federal Register 

approved the incorporation by reference 

of certain publications listed in this AD

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion 

We issued a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 

part 39 by adding an AD that would 

apply to certain ATR—GIE Avions de 

Transport Re ́gional Model ATR42–500 

airplanes, and Model ATR72–212A 

airplanes. The NPRM published in the 

Federal Register on August 13, 2014 (79 

FR 47390). 

The European Aviation Safety Agency 

(EASA), which is the Technical Agent 

for the Member States of the European 

Community, has issued Airworthiness 

Directive 2014–0056, dated March 7, 

2014 (referred to after this as the 

Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness 

Information, or ‘‘the MCAI’’), to correct 

an unsafe condition for certain ATR— 

GIE Avions de Transport Re ́gional 

Model ATR42–500 airplanes, and Model 

ATR72–212A airplanes. The MCAI 

states: 

During inspection of an aeroplane on the 

production line, interference was detected 

between electrical harnesses (2M–2S–6M) 

and a bonding lead, located in zone 214, 

positioned above and forward of the 120VU 

shelf. Subsequent investigation revealed that 

the interference was a result of an incorrect 

installation of the affected bonding lead. 

This condition, if not detected and 

corrected, could lead to arcing and chafing, 

possibly resulting in an uncontrolled fire. 

To address this potential unsafe condition, 

ATR issued Service Bulletin (SB) ATR42–92– 

0025 and SB ATR72–92–1034, as applicable 

to aeroplane model, to provide inspection 

instructions. 

For the reasons described above, this 

[EASA] AD requires a one-time [detailed] 

inspection [for damage or incorrect routing of 

the bonding lead routing above the 120VU 

shelf] of the electrical harness 2M–2S–6M in 

zone 214 and, depending on findings, 

accomplishment of corrective action(s) 

[repairing damage or modifying the bonding 

lead routing].
