Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS 

Airplanes 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking 

(NPRM). 

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to 

supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 

2021–13–06, which applies to certain 

Airbus SAS Model A350–941 and –1041 

airplanes. AD 2021–13–06 requires 

revising the existing maintenance or 

inspection program, as applicable, to 

incorporate new or more restrictive 

airworthiness limitations. Since the 

FAA issued AD 2021–13–06, the FAA 

has determined that new or more 

restrictive airworthiness limitations are 

necessary. This proposed AD would 

continue to require the actions in AD 

2021–13–06 and require revising the 

existing maintenance or inspection 

program, as applicable, to incorporate 

additional new or more restrictive 

airworthiness limitations, as specified 

in a European Union Aviation Safety 

Agency (EASA) AD, which is proposed 

for incorporation by reference. The FAA 

is proposing this AD to address the 

unsafe condition on these products. 

DATES: The FAA must receive comments 

on this proposed AD by March 28, 2022. 

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, 

using the procedures found in 14 CFR 

11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following

Discussion 

The FAA issued AD 2021–13–06, 

Amendment 39–21611 (86 FR 40934, 

July 30, 2021) (AD 2021–13–06), for 

certain Airbus SAS Model A350–941 

and –1041 airplanes. AD 2021–13–06 

requires revising the existing 

maintenance or inspection program, as 

applicable, to incorporate new or more 

restrictive airworthiness limitations. 

The FAA issued AD 2021–13–06 to 

address hazardous or catastrophic 

airplane system failures. AD 2021–13– 

06 specifies that accomplishing the 

actions required by AD 2021–13–06 

terminates the repetitive greasing task 

for batch 02 group of affected thrust 

reverser actuators required by paragraph 

(g) of AD 2019–20–01, Amendment 39– 

19754 (84 FR 55495, October 17, 2019) 

(AD 2019–20–01). 

Actions Since AD 2021–13–06 Was 

Issued 

Since the FAA issued AD 2021–13– 

06, the FAA has determined that new or 

more restrictive airworthiness 

limitations are necessary. 

EASA, which is the Technical Agent 

for the Member States of the European 

Union, has issued EASA AD 2021–0208, 

dated September 15, 2021 (EASA AD 

2021–0208) (also referred to as the 

Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness 

Information, or the MCAI), to correct an 

unsafe condition for all Airbus SAS 

Model A350–941 and –1041 airplanes. 

Airplanes with an original airworthiness 

certificate or original export certificate 

of airworthiness issued after July 20, 

2021 must comply with the 

airworthiness limitations specified as 

part of the approved type design and 

referenced on the type certificate data 

sheet; this proposed AD therefore does 

not include those airplanes in the 

applicability. 

This proposed AD was prompted by 

a determination that new or more 

restrictive airworthiness limitations are 

necessary. The FAA is proposing this 

AD to address hazardous or catastrophic 

airplane system failures. See the MCAI 

for additional background information. 

Related Service Information Under 1 

CFR Part 51 

EASA AD 2021–0208 describes new 

or more restrictive airworthiness 

limitations for airplane structures and 

safe life limits. 

This proposed AD would also require 

EASA AD 2020–0211, dated October 5, 

2020, and EASA AD 2021–0026, dated 

January 20, 2021, which the Director of 

the Federal Register approved for 

incorporation by reference as of 

September 3, 2021 (86 FR 40934, July 

30, 2021). 

This material is reasonably available 

because the interested parties have 

access to it through their normal course 

of business or by the means identified 

in the ADDRESSES section. 

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 the 

FAA’s bilateral agreement with the State 

of Design Authority, the FAA has been 

notified of the unsafe condition 

described in the MCAI referenced 

above. The FAA is proposing this AD 

because the FAA has 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. 

Proposed AD Requirements 

This proposed AD would retain the 

requirements of AD 2021–13–06. This 

proposed AD would also require 

revising the existing maintenance or 

inspection program, as applicable, to 

incorporate new or more restrictive 

airworthiness limitations, which are 

specified in EASA AD 2021–0208 

described previously, as incorporated by 

reference. Any differences with EASA 

AD 2021–0208 are identified as 

exceptions in the regulatory text of this 

AD. 

This proposed AD would require 

revisions to certain operator 

maintenance documents to include new 

actions (e.g., inspections). Compliance 

with these actions is required by 14 CFR 

91.403(c). For airplanes that have been 

previously modified, altered, or repaired 

in the areas addressed by this proposed 

AD, the operator may not be able to 

accomplish the actions described in the 

revisions. In this situation, to comply 

with 14 CFR 91.403(c), the operator 

must request approval for an alternative 

method of compliance according to 

paragraph (n)(1) of this proposed AD. 

Explanation of Required Compliance 

Information 

In the FAA’s ongoing efforts to 

improve the efficiency of the AD 

process, the FAA developed a process to 

use some civil aviation authority (CAA) 

ADs as the primary source of 

information for compliance with 

requirements for corresponding FAA 

ADs. The FAA has been coordinating 

this process with manufacturers and 

CAAs. As a result, the FAA proposes to 

incorporate EASA AD 2021–0208 by 

reference in the FAA final rule. This 

proposed AD would, therefore, require 

compliance with EASA AD 2021–0208 

in its entirety through that 

incorporation, except for any differences 

identified as exceptions in the 

regulatory text of this proposed AD. 

Using common terms that are the same 

as the heading of a particular section in 

EASA AD 2021–0208 does not mean 

that operators need comply only with 

that section. For example, where the AD 

requirement refers to ‘‘all required 

actions and compliance times,’’ 

compliance with this AD requirement is 

not limited to the section titled 

‘‘Required Action(s) and Compliance 

Time(s)’’ in EASA AD 2021–0208. 

Service information required by EASA 

AD 2021–0208 for compliance will be 

available at https://www.regulations.gov 

by searching for and locating Docket No. 

FAA–2022–0086 after the FAA final 

rule is published. 

Airworthiness Limitation ADs Using 

the New Process 

The FAA’s process of incorporating 

by reference MCAI ADs as the primary 

source of information for compliance 

with corresponding FAA ADs has been 

limited to certain MCAI ADs (primarily 

those with service bulletins as the 

primary source of information for 

accomplishing the actions required by 

the FAA AD). However, the FAA is now 

expanding the process to include MCAI 

ADs that require a change to 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with PROPOSALS1
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 27 / Wednesday, February 9, 2022 / Proposed Rules 7399 

airworthiness limitation documents, 

such as airworthiness limitation 

sections. 

For these ADs that incorporate by 

reference an MCAI AD that changes 

airworthiness limitations, the FAA 

requirements are unchanged. Operators 

must revise the existing maintenance or 

inspection program, as applicable, to 

incorporate the information specified in 

the new airworthiness limitation 

document. The airworthiness 

limitations must be followed according 

to 14 CFR 91.403(c) and 91.409(e). 

The previous format of the 

airworthiness limitation ADs included a 

paragraph that specified that no 

alternative actions (e.g., inspections) or 

intervals may be used unless the actions 

and intervals are approved as an 

alternative method of compliance 

(AMOC) in accordance with the 

procedures specified in the AMOCs 

paragraph under ‘‘Other FAA 

Provisions.’’ This new format includes a 

‘‘New Provisions for Alternative Actions 

and Intervals’’ paragraph that does not 

specifically refer to AMOCs, but 

operators may still request an AMOC to 

use an alternative action or interval. 

Costs of Compliance 

The FAA estimates that this proposed 

AD affects 27 airplanes of U.S. registry. 

The FAA estimates the following costs 

to comply with this proposed AD: 

The FAA estimates the total cost per 

operator for the retained actions from 

AD 2021–13–06 to be $7,650 (90 workhours × $85 per work-hour). 

The FAA has determined that revising 

the existing maintenance or inspection 

program takes an average of 90 workhours per operator, although the agency 

recognizes that this number may vary 

from operator to operator. Since 

operators incorporate maintenance or 

inspection program changes for their 

affected fleet(s), the FAA has 

determined that a per-operator estimate 

is more accurate than a per-airplane 

estimate. 

The FAA estimates the total cost per 

operator for the new proposed actions to 

be $7,650 (90 work-hours × $85 per 

work-hour). 

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. 

The FAA is 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 

The FAA 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) Would not affect intrastate 

aviation in Alaska, and 

(3) Would not have a significant 

economic impact, positive or negative, 

on a substantial number of small entities 

under the criteria of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act.

continues to read as follows: 

Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701. 

§ 39.13 [Amended] 

■ 2. The FAA amends § 39.13 by: 

■ a. Removing Airworthiness Directive 

(AD) 2021–13–06, Amendment 39– 

21611 (86 FR 40934, July 30, 2021); and 

■ b. Adding the following new AD: 

Airbus SAS: Docket No. FAA–2022–0086; 

Project Identifier MCAI–2021–01035–T. 

(a) Comments Due Date 

The FAA must receive comments on this 

airworthiness directive (AD) by March 28, 

2022. 

(b) Affected ADs 

(1) This AD replaces AD 2021–13–06, 

Amendment 39–21611 (86 FR 40934, July 30, 

2021) (AD 2021–13–06). 

(2) This AD affects AD 2019–20–01, 

Amendment 39–19754 (84 FR 55495, October 

17, 2019) (AD 2019–20–01). 

(c) Applicability 

This AD applies to Airbus SAS Model 

A350–941 and –1041 airplanes, certificated 

in any category, with an original 

airworthiness certificate or original export 

certificate of airworthiness issued on or 

before July 20, 2021. 

(d) Subject 

Air Transport Association (ATA) of 

America Code 05, Time Limits/Maintenance 

Checks. 

(e) Reason 

This AD was prompted by a determination 

that new or more restrictive airworthiness 

limitations are necessary. The FAA is issuing 

this AD to address hazardous or catastrophic 

airplane system failures. 

(f) Compliance 

Comply with this AD within the 

compliance times specified, unless already 

done. 

(g) Retained Maintenance or Inspection 

Program Revision, With No Changes 

This paragraph restates the requirements of 

paragraph (g) of AD 2021–13–06, with no 

changes. For airplanes with an original 

airworthiness certificate or original export 

certificate of airworthiness issued on or 

before July 22, 2020: Except as specified in 

paragraph (h) of this AD, comply with all 

required actions and compliance times 

specified in, and in accordance with, 

European Union Aviation Safety Agency 

(EASA) AD 2020–0211, dated October 5, 

2020 (EASA AD 2020–0211); and EASA AD 

2021–0026, dated January 20, 2021 (EASA 

AD 2021–0026). Where EASA AD 2021–0026 

affects the same airworthiness limitations 

(tasks and life limits) as those in EASA AD 

2020–0211, the airworthiness limitations 

referenced in EASA AD 2021–0026 prevail. 

Accomplishing the revision of the existing 

maintenance or inspection program required 

by paragraph (j) of this AD terminates the 

requirements of this paragraph. 

(h) Retained Exceptions to EASA AD 2020– 

0211 and EASA AD 2021–0026, With No 

Changes 

This paragraph restates the requirements of 

paragraph (h) of AD 2021–13–06, with no 

changes. For airplanes with an original 

airworthiness certificate or original export 

certificate of airworthiness issued on or 

before July 22, 2020: 

(1) Where EASA AD 2020–0211 and EASA 

AD 2021–0026 refers to its effective date, this 

AD requires using September 3, 2021 (the 

effective date of AD 2021–13–06). 

(2) The requirements specified in 

paragraphs (1) and (2) of EASA AD 2020– 

0211 and EASA AD 2021–0026 do not apply 

to this AD. 

(3) Paragraph (3) of EASA AD 2020–0211

EASA AD 2021–0026, or within 90 days after 

September 3, 2021 (the effective date of AD 

2021–13–06), whichever occurs later. 

(5) The provisions specified in paragraphs 

(4) and (5) of EASA AD 2020–0211 do not 

apply to this AD. 

(6) The provisions specified in paragraph 

(4) of EASA AD 2021–0026 do not apply to 

this AD. 

(7) The ‘‘Remarks’’ section of EASA AD 

2020–0211 and EASA AD 2021–0026 does 

not apply to this AD. 

(i) Retained Provisions for Alternative 

Actions and Intervals, With a New Exception 

This paragraph restates the requirements of 

paragraph (i) of AD 2021–13–06, with a new 

exception. For airplanes with an original 

airworthiness certificate or original export 

certificate of airworthiness issued on or 

before July 22, 2020: Except as required by 

paragraph (j) of this AD, after the existing 

maintenance or inspection program has been 

revised as required by paragraph (g) of this 

AD, no alternative actions (e.g., inspections) 

and intervals are allowed unless they are 

approved as specified in the provisions of the 

‘‘Ref. Publications’’ section of EASA AD 

2020–0211 or EASA AD 2021–0026. 

(j) New Maintenance or Inspection Program
