(2) Will not affect intrastate aviation 

in Alaska. 

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39 

Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation 

safety, Incorporation by reference, 

Safety. 

The Amendment 

Accordingly, under the authority 

delegated to me by the Administrator, 

the FAA amends 14 CFR part 39 as 

follows: 

PART 39—AIRWORTHINESS 

DIRECTIVES 

■ 1. The authority citation for part 39 

continues to read as follows: 

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

§ 39.13 [Amended] 

■ 2. The FAA amends § 39.13 by adding 

the following new airworthiness 

directive: 

2022–03–23 Textron Aviation Inc. (type 

certificate previously held by Raytheon 

Aircraft Company, Hawker Beechcraft 

Corporation, and Beechcraft 

Corporation): Amendment 39–21941; 

Docket No. FAA–2022–0088; Project 

Identifier AD–2022–00041–A. 

(a) Effective Date 

This airworthiness directive (AD) is 

effective February 22, 2022. 

(b) Affected ADs 

None. 

(c) Applicability 

This AD applies to Textron Aviation Inc. 

(type certificate previously held by Raytheon 

Aircraft Company, Hawker Beechcraft 

Corporation, and Beechcraft Corporation) 

Model 300, 300LW, B300, and B300C 

airplanes, all serial numbers, certificated in 

any category, that are equipped with a 

Garmin International, Inc., G1000 integrated 

avionics system installed in accordance with 

Supplemental Type Certificate No. 

SA01535WI–D with GSA 9000 yaw servo 

software version 2.13 or earlier. 

(d) Subject 

Joint Aircraft System Component (JASC) 

Code 2720, Rudder Control System. 

(e) Unsafe Condition 

This AD was prompted by a report of a 

timing issue where the yaw servo software 

can generate a motor position fault when the 

pilot applies rudder input at the same time 

the rudder boost system is activated, which 

disables the rudder boost. The FAA is issuing 

this AD to prevent excessive rudder forces 

following loss of an engine or significant loss 

of thrust. The unsafe condition, if not 

addressed, could result in the inability of the 

flight crew to maintain the safe flight and 

landing of the airplane and loss of control of 

the airplane. 

(f) Actions and Compliance 

(1) Unless already done, within 100 hours 

time-in-service (TIS) after the effective date 

of this AD or within 90 days after the 

effective date of this AD, whichever occurs 

first, update the GSA 9000 yaw servo 

software to a version that is not 2.13 or 

earlier. 

(2) As of the effective date of this AD, do 

not install yaw servo software version 2.13 or 

earlier on the Garmin G1000 integrated 

avionics system on any airplane. 

(g) Alternative Methods of Compliance 

(AMOCs) 

(1) The Manager, Wichita ACO Branch, 

FAA, has the authority to approve AMOCs 

for this AD, if requested using the procedures 

found in 14 CFR 39.19. In accordance with 

14 CFR 39.19, send your request to your 

principal inspector or local Flight Standards 

District Office, as appropriate. If sending 

information directly to the manager of the 

certification office, send it to the attention of 

the person identified in paragraph (h) of this 

AD. 

(2) Before using any approved AMOC, 

notify your appropriate principal inspector, 

or lacking a principal inspector, the manager 

of the local flight standards district office/ 

certificate holding district office.

Airspace; Janesville, WI 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This action amends the Class 

D and Class E airspace at Janesville, WI. 

This action is the result of an airspace 

review caused by the decommissioning 

of the Rockford very high frequency 

(VHF) omnidirectional range (VOR) as 

part of the VOR Minimal Operational 

Network (MON) Program. The names 

and geographic coordinates of the 

airport are also being updated to 

coincide with the FAA’s aeronautical 

database. 

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, May 19, 

2022. The Director of the Federal 

Register approves this incorporation by 

reference action under 1 CFR part 51, 

subject to the annual revision of FAA 

Order JO 7400.11 and publication of 

conforming amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Authority for This Rulemaking 

The FAA’s authority to issue rules 

regarding aviation safety is found in 

Title 49 of the United States Code. 

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. This rulemaking is 

promulgated under the authority 

described in Subtitle VII, Part A, 

Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that 

section, the FAA is charged with 

prescribing regulations to assign the use 

of airspace necessary to ensure the 

safety of aircraft and the efficient use of 

airspace. This regulation is within the 

scope of that authority as it amends the 

Class D airspace and Class E airspace 

extending upward from 700 feet above 

the surface at Southern Wisconsin 

Regional Airport, Janesville, WI, to 

support instrument flight rule 

operations at this airport. 

History 

The FAA published a notice of 

proposed rulemaking in the Federal 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with RULES1
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 24 / Friday, February 4, 2022 / Rules and Regulations 6407 

Register (86 FR 62755; November 12, 

2021) for Docket No. FAA–2021–0980 to 

amend the Class D and Class E airspace 

at Janesville, WI. Interested parties were 

invited to participate in this rulemaking 

effort by submitting written comments 

on the proposal to the FAA. No 

comments were received. 

Class D and E airspace designations 

are published in paragraphs 5000 and 

6005, respectively, of FAA Order JO 

7400.11F, dated August 10, 2021, and 

effective September 15, 2021, which is 

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Class D and E airspace 

designations listed in this document 

will be published subsequently in FAA 

Order JO 7400.11. 

Availability and Summary of 

Documents for Incorporation by 

Reference 

This document amends FAA Order JO 

7400.11F, Airspace Designations and 

Reporting Points, dated August 10, 

2021, and effective September 15, 2021. 

FAA Order JO 7400.11F is publicly 

available as listed in the ADDRESSES

section of this document. FAA Order JO 

7400.11F lists Class A, B, C, D, and E 

airspace areas, air traffic service routes, 

and reporting points. 

The Rule 

This amendment to 14 CFR part 71: 

Amends the Class D airspace to 

within a 4.3-mile (increased from a 4.1- 

mile) radius of Southern Wisconsin 

Regional Airport, Janesville, WI; adds an 

extension 1 mile each side of the 221° 

bearing from the airport extending from 

the 4.3-mile radius of the airport to 4.4 

miles southwest of the airport; adds an 

extension 1 mile each side of the 331° 

bearing from the airport extending from 

the 4.3-mile radius of the airport to 4.4 

miles northwest of the airport; updates 

the name (previously Rock County 

Airport) and geographic coordinates of 

the airport to coincide with the FAA’s 

aeronautical database; removes the city 

associated with the airport from the 

airspace legal description to comply 

with changes to FAA Order JO 7400.2N, 

Procedures for Handling Airspace 

Matters; and updates the outdated term 

‘‘Airport/Facility Directory’’ to ‘‘Chart 

Supplement’’; 

And amends the Class E airspace 

extending upward from 700 feet above 

the surface to within a 6.8-mile 

(decreased from an 8.9-mile) radius of 

Southern Wisconsin Regional Airport; 

adds an extension 2 miles each side of 

the 042° bearing from the airport 

extending from the 6.8-mile radius of 

the airport to 10.9 miles northeast of the 

airport; removes the city associated with 

the airport from the airspace legal 

description to comply with changes to 

FAA Order JO 7400.2N; and removes 

the exclusionary language as it is not 

required. 

This action is due to an airspace 

review caused by the decommissioning 

of the Rockford VOR, which provided 

navigation information for the 

instrument procedures this airport, as 

part of the VOR MON Program. 

FAA Order JO 7400.11, Airspace 

Designations and Reporting Points, is 

published yearly and effective on 

September 15. 

Regulatory Notices and Analyses 

The FAA has determined that this 

regulation only involves an established 

body of technical regulations for which 

frequent and routine amendments are 

necessary to keep them operationally 

current, is non-controversial and 

unlikely to result in adverse or negative 

comments. It, therefore: (1) Is not a 

‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under 

Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a 

‘‘significant rule’’ under DOT 

Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 

FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) 

does not warrant preparation of a 

regulatory evaluation as the anticipated 

impact is so minimal. Since this is a 

routine matter that only affects air traffic 

procedures and air navigation, it is 

certified that this rule, when 

promulgated, does not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. 

Environmental Review 

The FAA has determined that this 

action qualifies for categorical exclusion 

under the National Environmental 

Policy Act in accordance with FAA 

Order 1050.1F, ‘‘Environmental 

Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’ 

paragraph 5–6.5.a. This airspace action 

is not expected to cause any potentially 

significant environmental impacts, and 

no extraordinary circumstances exist 

that warrant preparation of an 

environmental assessment.
