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 MystereFalcon 50 airplanes. This AD was 

prompted by a manufacturer revision to 

the airplane maintenance manual 

(AMM) that introduces new or more 

restrictive maintenance requirements 

and airworthiness limitations. This AD 

requires revising the maintenance 

program to incorporate new or revised 

maintenance requirements and 

airworthiness limitations. We are 

issuing this AD to prevent reduced 

structural integrity of the airplane. 

DATES: This AD becomes effective 

March 19, 2013. 

The Director of the Federal Register 

approved the incorporation by reference 

of a certain publication listed in this AD 

as of March 19, 2013.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion 

We issued a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 

part 39 to include an AD that would 

apply to the specified products. That 

NPRM was published in the Federal 

Register on October 3, 2012 (77 FR 

60323). That NPRM proposed to correct 

an unsafe condition for the specified 

products. The Mandatory Continuing 

Airworthiness Information (MCAI) 

states: 

The airworthiness limitations and 

maintenance requirements for the Myste`reFalcon 50 (MF50) type design are included 

in Dassault Aviation Myste`re-Falcon 50 

Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM) chapter 

5–40 and 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 MF50 AMM chapter 5–40 

at revision 17. 

Since that [EASA] AD was issued, Dassault 

Aviation issued MF50 AMM chapter 5–40 at 

revision 21, which introduces new or more 

restrictive maintenance requirements and/or 

airworthiness limitations. 

Dassault Aviation AMM chapter 5–40 

revision 21 contains among other changes the 

following requirements: 

—Corrosion Prevention and Control 

Programme (CPCP). Compliance with this 

programme was required by DGAC 

[Direction Ge ́ne ́rale de l’Aviation Civile] 

France AD F–2004–162 (EASA approval 

number 2004–10117). A new CPCP 

approach is now introduced in MF50 

AMM chapter 5–40 at revision 21; 

—Check of overpressure tightness on 

pressurization control regulating valves. 

Compliance with this check is required by 

EASA AD 2008–0072 [which corresponds 

to FAA AD 2010–26–05, Amendment 39– 

16544 (75 FR 79952, December 21, 2010]. 

MF50 AMM chapter 5–40 at revision 21 

introduces extended inspection interval; 

—Non destructive check of the flap tracks 2 

and 5. Compliance with this check is 

required by EASA AD 2010–0080. 

The maintenance tasks and airworthiness 

limitations, as specified in the MF50 AMM 

chapter 5–40, have been identified as 

mandatory actions for continued 

airworthiness of the MF50 type design. 

Failure to comply with AMM chapter 5–40 

at revision 21 might constitute an unsafe 

condition [which could result in reduced 

structural integrity of the airplane]. 

For the reasons described above, this 

[EASA] AD, which supersedes DGAC France 

AD F–2004–162, requires the implementation 

of the maintenance tasks and airworthiness 

limitations, as specified in Dassault Aviation 

MF50 AMM chapter 5–40 at revision 21. 

The required action is revising the 

maintenance program to incorporate all 

airworthiness limitations and 

maintenance tasks specified in Section 

05–40/00, Airworthiness Limitations, of 

Chapter 5–40, Airworthiness 

Limitations, of the Dassault Falcon 50/ 

50EX Maintenance Manual, Revision 21, 

dated June 2011. You may obtain further 

information by examining the MCAI in 

the AD docket. 

Comments 

We gave the public the opportunity to 

participate in developing this AD. We 

received no comments on the NPRM (77 

FR 60323, October 3, 2012) or on the 

determination of the cost to the public. 

Conclusion 

We reviewed the available data and 

determined that air safety and the 

public interest require adopting the 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 (77 FR 

60323, October 3, 2012) for correcting 

the unsafe condition; and 

• Do not add any additional burden 

upon the public than was already 

proposed in the NPRM (77 FR 60323, 

October 3, 2012). 

Costs of Compliance 

We estimate that this AD will affect 

253 products of U.S. registry. We also 

estimate that it will take about 1 workhour 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 to the U.S. operators to 

be $21,505, 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. 

We prepared a regulatory evaluation 

of the estimated costs to comply with 

this AD and placed it in the AD docket. 

Examining the AD Docket 

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 the NPRM (77 FR 60323, 

October 3, 2012), the regulatory 

evaluation, any comments received, and 

other information. The street address for 

the Docket Operations office (telephone 

(800) 647–5527) is in the ADDRESSES
