Applicability 

As discussed previously, this special 

condition is applicable to Supplemental 

Type Certificate (STC) Project Number 

ST2902RC–R, for the installation of a 

Pratt & Whitney PT6–67D turbine 

engine in GHTI UH–1H military surplus 

helicopters type certificated under TC 

R00002RC. Should DynCorp 

International apply at a later date for a 

change to the STC to include another 

model incorporating the same novel or 

unusual design feature, the special 

condition would apply to that STC 

modification as well under the 

provisions of § 21.101. 

Conclusion 

This action affects only certain novel 

or unusual design features associated 

with this STC project. It is not a rule of 

general applicability and affects only 

the applicant who applied to the FAA 

for approval of these features on the 

helicopter. 

The substance of this special 

condition has been subjected to a notice 

and comment period in several prior 

instances and has been derived without 

substantive change from those 

previously issued. It is unlikely that 

prior public comment would result in a 

significant change from the substance 

contained herein. For this reason, the 

FAA has determined that prior public 

notice and comment are unnecessary, 

and good cause exists for adopting this 

special condition upon issuance. The 

FAA is requesting comments to allow 

interested persons to submit views that 

may not have been submitted in 

response to the prior opportunities for 

comment.

The authority citation for this special 

condition is as follows: 

Authority: 42 U.S.C. 7572; 49 U.S.C.

The Special Condition 

Accordingly, pursuant to the 

authority delegated to me by the 

Administrator, the following special 

condition is issued as part of the 

supplemental type certification basis for 

STC Project ST2902RC–R, installation of 

PT6–67D on Global Helicopter 

Technology, Inc. (GHTI), Model UH–1H, 

Restricted Category Helicopters, type 

certificated under TC R00002RC. 

Protection for Electrical and 

Electronic Systems From High Intensity 

Radiated Fields. 

1. Each system that performs critical 

control functions must be designed and 

installed to ensure that the operation 

and operational capabilities of these 

critical control functions are not 

adversely affected when the helicopter 

is exposed to high intensity radiated 

fields external to the helicopter. 

2. For the purpose of this special 

condition, critical control functions are 

defined as those functions, whose 

failure would contribute to, or cause, an 

unsafe condition that would prevent the 

continued safe flight and landing of the 

aircraft.

Airplanes 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), Department of 

Transportation (DOT). 

ACTION: Final rule; correction. 

SUMMARY: The FAA is correcting a 

typographical error in an existing 

airworthiness directive (AD) that was 

published in the Federal Register on 

November 1, 2007 (72 FR 61796). The 

error resulted in an error in an airplane 

series number identified in Table 2 of 

the AD. This AD applies to all Airbus 

Model A330–200, A330–300, A340–200, 

A340–300, A340–500, and A340–600 

series airplanes. This AD requires 

repetitive detailed visual inspections for 

cracking of the LH (left hand) and RH 

(right hand) wing MLG (main landing 

gear) rib 6 aft bearing lugs, and repair or 

replacement of the MLG rib 6 fitting, if 

necessary. 

DATES: Effective November 16, 2007. 

ADDRESSES: You may examine the AD 

docket on the Internet at http:// 

www.regulations.gov; or in person at the 

Docket Operations office between 9 a.m. 

and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, 

except Federal holidays. The AD docket 

contains this AD, the regulatory 

evaluation, any comments received, and 

other information. The street address for

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

October 24, 2007, the FAA issued AD 

2007–22–10, amendment 39–15246 (72 

FR 61796, November 1, 2007), for all 

Airbus Model A330–200, A330–300, 

A340–200, A340–300, A340–500, and 

A340–600 series airplanes. The AD 

requires repetitive detailed visual 

inspections for cracking of the LH (left 

hand) and RH (right hand) wing MLG 

(main landing gear) rib 6 aft bearing 

lugs, and repair or replacement of the 

MLG rib 6 fitting, if necessary. 

As published, Table 2 of the AD states 

that certain repetitive inspection 

intervals apply to Model ‘‘A300–300 

series airplanes, except WV27.’’ That 

sentence contains a typographical error 

and, instead, should state that those 

repetitive inspection intervals apply to 

Model ‘‘A340–300 series airplanes, 

except WV27.’’

No other part of the regulatory 

information has been changed; 

therefore, the final rule is not 

republished in the Federal Register. 

The effective date of this AD remains 

November 16, 2007.

14 CFR Part 97 

[Docket No. 30579; Amdt. No. 3244] 

Standard Instrument Approach 

Procedures; Miscellaneous 

Amendments 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This rule amends Standard 

Instrument Approach Procedures 

(SIAPs) for operations at certain 

airports. These regulatory actions are 

needed because of changes in the 

National Airspace System, such as the 

commissioning of new navigational 

facilities, adding of new obstacles, or 

changing air traffic requirements. These 

changes are designed to provide safe 

and efficient use of the navigable 

airspace and to promote safe flight 

operations under instrument flight rules 

at the affected airports. 

DATES: This rule is effective November 

16, 2007. The compliance date for each 

SIAP is specified in the amendatory 

provisions. 

The incorporation by reference of 

certain publications listed in the 

regulations is approved by the Director 

of the Federal Register as of November 

16, 2007.

incorporated by reference in the 

amendment is as follows:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule 

amends Title 14, Code of Federal 

Regulations, Part 97 (14 CFR part 97) by 

amending the referenced SIAPs. The 

complete regulatory description of each 

SIAP is listed on the appropriate FAA 

Form 8260, as modified by the National 

Flight Data Center (FDC)/Permanent 

Notice to Airmen (P–NOTAM), and is 

incorporated by reference in the 

amendment under 5 U.S.C. 552(a), 1 

CFR part 51, and § 97.20 of Title 14 of 

the Code of Federal Regulations. 

The large number of SIAPs, their 

complex nature, and the need for a 

special format make their verbatim 

publication in the Federal Register 

expensive and impractical. Further, 

airmen do not use the regulatory text of 

the SIAPs, but refer to their graphic 

depiction on charts printed by 

publishers of aeronautical materials. 

Thus, the advantages of incorporation 

by reference are realized and 

publication of the complete description 

of each SIAP contained in FAA form 

documents is unnecessary. This 

amendment provides the affected CFR 

sections and specifies the types of SIAP 

and the corresponding effective dates. 

This amendment also identifies the 

airport and its location, the procedure 

and the amendment number. 

The Rule 

This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is 

effective upon publication of each 

separate SIAP as amended in the 

transmittal. For safety and timeliness of 

change considerations, this amendment 

incorporates only specific changes 

contained for each SIAP as modified by 

FDC/P–NOTAMs. 

The SIAPs, as modified by FDC P–

NOTAM, and contained in this 

amendment are based on the criteria 

contained in the U.S. Standard for 

Terminal Instrument Procedures 

(TERPS). In developing these changes to 

SIAPs, the TERPS criteria were applied 

only to specific conditions existing at 

the affected airports. All SIAP 

amendments in this rule have been 

previously issued by the FAA in a FDC 

NOTAM as an emergency action of 

immediate flight safety relating directly 

to published aeronautical charts. The 

circumstances which created the need 

for all these SIAP amendments requires 

making them effective in less than 30 

days. 

Because of the close and immediate 

relationship between these SIAPs and 

safety in air commerce, I find that notice 

and public procedure before adopting 

these SIAPs are impracticable and 

contrary to the public interest and, 

where applicable, that good cause exists 

for making these SIAPs effective in less 

than 30 days. 

Conclusion 

The FAA has determined that this 

regulation only involves an established 

body of technical regulations for which
