# ACTION:

Final rule; request for comments.

# SUMMARY:

We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Bombardier, Inc. Model CL-600-1A11 (CL-600), CL-600-2A12 (CL-601), and CL-600-2B16 (CL-601-3A, and CL-601-3R Variants) airplanes. This AD requires repetitive inspections for fractured or incorrectly oriented fasteners on the inboard flap hinge-box forward fittings on both wings, and replacement of all fasteners, if necessary. This AD was prompted by several reports of incorrectly oriented and fractured fasteners found on the inboard flap hinge-box forward fitting at wing station (WS) 76.50. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct incorrectly oriented or fractured fasteners, which could result in detachment of the flap hinge-box and the flap surface, and consequent reduced controllability of the airplane.

# DATES:

This AD becomes effective February 18, 2015.

The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in this AD as of February 18, 2015.

# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

## Discussion

Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA), which is the aviation authority for Canada, has issued Canadian Emergency Airworthiness Directive CF-2013-39R2, dated December 12, 2014 (referred to after this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or “the MCAI”), to correct an unsafe condition on certain Bombardier, Inc. Model CL-600-1A11 (CL-600), CL-600-2A12 (CL-601), and CL-600-2B16 (CL-601-3A, and CL-601-3R Variants) airplanes. The MCAI states:

There have been three in-service reports on 604 Variant aeroplanes of a fractured fastener head on the inboard flap hinge-box forward fitting at Wing Station (WS) 76.50, found during a routine maintenance inspection. Investigation revealed that the installation of these fasteners on the inboard flap hinge-box forward fittings at WS 76.50 and WS 127.25, on both wings, does not conform to the engineering drawings. Incorrect installation may result in premature failure of the fasteners attaching the inboard flap hinge-box forward fitting. Failure of the fasteners could lead to the detachment of the flap hinge box and consequently the detachment of the flap surface. The loss of a flap surface could * * * [result in reduced controllability of the airplane].

                        The original issue of this [Canadian] AD [dated December 6, 2013] [                        *http://www.regulations.gov/​#!documentDetail;​D=​FAA-2014-0054-0002*] [which corresponds to FAA AD 2014-03-17, Amendment 39-17754 (79 FR 9389, February 19, 2014)] mandated a detailed visual inspection (DVI) of each inboard flap hinge-box forward fitting, on both wings, and rectification as required. Incorrectly oriented fasteners require repetitive inspections until the terminating action is accomplished.                    

Although there have been no reported fractured fastener heads found to date on any model CL-600-1A11, -2A12 or -2B16 (601-3A-3R Variant) aeroplanes, incorrectly oriented fasteners may also be installed.

After the issuance of the original [Canadian] AD [dated August 15, 2014], there has been one reported incident on a 604 Variant aeroplane where four fasteners were found fractured on the same flap hinge-box forward fitting. The investigation determined that the fasteners were incorrectly installed.

Revision 1 of this [Canadian] AD was issued to remove the 604 Variant aeroplanes from the Applicability section since they were addressed in [Canadian] AD CF-2014-27 [dated August 15, 2014] [which corresponds to FAA AD 2014-17-51, Amendment 39-17999 (79 FR 64088, October 28, 2014)] and to clarify paragraphs A.2. and C of this [Canadian] AD so that it matched the Bombardier Alert Service Bulletins.

After the issuance of Revision 1 of this [Canadian] AD, there have been several reports of incorrectly oriented fasteners found on CL-600-1A11, and -2B16 (601-3A Variant) aeroplanes. Although there have been no reports of fractured fasteners found to date, incorrectly oriented fasteners could result in the premature failure of the forward flap hinge-box fitting.

Revision 2 of this [Canadian] AD is issued to reduce the initial and repetitive inspection intervals and to impose replacement of the incorrectly oriented fasteners * * *. This [Canadian] AD also corrects various terminology errors which were found in previous French versions of this [Canadian] AD.

                    You may examine the MCAI on the Internet at                     *http://www.regulations.gov*                     by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2015-0082.                

## Related Rulemaking

On February 3, 2014, we issued AD 2014-03-17, Amendment 39-17754 (79 FR 9389, February 19, 2014) for Bombardier, Inc. Model CL-600-1A11 (CL-600) airplanes, having serial numbers (S/Ns) 1004 through 1085 inclusive; Model CL-600-2A12 (CL-601) airplanes, having S/Ns 3001 through 3066 inclusive; and Model CL-600-2B16 (CL-601-3A, CL-601-3R, & CL-604 Variants) airplanes, having S/Ns 5001 through 5194 inclusive, 5301 through 5665 inclusive, and 5701 through 5920 inclusive. AD 2014-03-17 requires repetitive inspections for fractured or incorrectly oriented fasteners on the inboard flap hinge-box forward fittings on both wings, and fastener replacement if necessary, and was prompted by two reports of fractured fastener heads found on the inboard flap hinge-box forward fitting. AD 2014-03-17 was issued to detect and correct incorrectly oriented or fractured fasteners, which could result in detachment of the flap hinge-box and the flap surface, and consequent reduced controllability of the airplane.

After we issued AD 2014-03-17, Amendment 39-17754 (79 FR 9389, February 19, 2014), we received a report of an additional incident of fractured fasteners on a Model CL-600-2B16 (CL-604 Variant) airplane. We then issued AD 2014-17-51, Amendment 39-17999 (79 FR 64088, October 28, 2014), as a “stand-alone” AD to reduce compliance times for the initial and repetitive inspections only for Model CL-600-2B16 airplanes having S/Ns 5301 through 5665 inclusive, and 5701 through 5920 inclusive. Issuing AD 2014-17-51 as a “stand-alone” AD instead of superseding AD 2014-03-17 was determined to be clearer and less burdensome for operators with airplanes unaffected by the reduced compliance times required by AD 2014-17-51.

Since we issued AD 2014-17-51, Amendment 39-17999 (79 FR 64088, October 28, 2014), we received a report of incorrectly oriented fasteners on a Model CL-600-1A11 airplane and on a Model CL-600-2B16 (601-3A Variant) airplane. Consequently, we determined it was necessary to issue this AD to reduce compliance times for the other airplane models not affected by AD 2014-17-51. Doing so reduces the potential complexity for two groups of airplanes (those that are and are not affected by AD 2014-17-51).

## Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

                    Bombardier has issued Alert Service Bulletins A600-0763, Revision 02, dated December 9, 2014, including Appendices 1 and 2, dated September 26, 2013; and A601-0627, Revision 02, dated December 9, 2014, including Appendices 1 and 2, dated September 26, 2013. The service information describes procedures for repetitive inspections of the fasteners on the inboard flap hinge-box forward fittings on both wings, and replacement of all fasteners, if necessary. The actions described in this service information are                           ( print page 5672)                        intended to correct the unsafe condition identified in the MCAI. This service information is reasonably available; see                     **ADDRESSES**                     for ways to access this service information.                

## 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, we have been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and service information referenced above. We are issuing this AD because we evaluated all pertinent information and determined the unsafe condition exists and is likely to exist or develop on other products of these same type designs.

## 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 we have received several reports of incorrectly oriented and fractured fasteners found on the inboard flap hinge-box forward fitting at WS 76.50. Incorrectly oriented or fractured fasteners could result in detachment of the flap hinge-box and the flap surface, and consequent reduced controllability of the airplane. 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.

## Interim Action

We consider this AD interim action. We are currently considering requiring replacement of incorrectly oriented fasteners, which will constitute terminating action for the repetitive inspections required by this AD action. However, the planned compliance time for the replacement would allow enough time to provide notice and opportunity for prior public comment on the merits of the modification.

## 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-2015-0082; Directorate Identifier 2014-NM-233-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 based on those comments.                

                    We will post all comments we receive, without change, to                     *http://www.regulations.gov,*                     including any personal information you provide. We will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal contact we receive about this AD.                

## Costs of Compliance

We estimate that this AD affects 120 airplanes of U.S. registry.

We also estimate that it will take about 1 work-hour per product to 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 $10,200, or $85 per product.

In addition, we estimate that any necessary follow-on actions will take about 58 work-hours and require parts costing $753, for a cost of $5,683 per product. We have no way of determining the number of aircraft that might need this action.

According to the manufacturer, some of the costs of this AD may be covered under warranty, thereby reducing the cost impact on affected individuals. We do not control warranty coverage for affected individuals. As a result, we have included all costs in our cost estimate.

## 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.
