Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Helicopters

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) 
for all Airbus Helicopters Model AS-365N2, AS 365 N3, EC 155B, EC155B1, 
and SA-365N1 helicopters. This proposed AD was prompted by a large 
amount of critical scale particles found on the tail rotor gearbox 
(TGB) chip detector magnetic plug during an unscheduled check of the 
TGB. The particles belonged to the double bearing (pitch control rod 
bearing) installed inside the TGB. This proposed AD would require 
repetitive inspections of the TGB chip detector for particles, 
analyzing any particles collected, performing a double bearing washing, 
repetitive replacements of certain part-numbered

Background

    EASA, which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the 
European Union, has issued EASA AD 2021-0170, dated July 19, 2021 (EASA 
AD 2021-0170), to correct an unsafe condition for all Airbus 
Helicopters (AH), formerly Eurocopter, Eurocopter France, Aerospatiale, 
Sud Aviation, Model AS 365 N2, AS 365 N3, EC 155 B, EC 155 B1 and SA 
365 N1 helicopters.
    This proposed AD was prompted by a large amount of critical scale 
particles found on the TGB chip detector magnetic plug during an 
unscheduled check of a Model AS 365 N2 helicopter. EASA advises the 
particles belonged to the double bearing (pitch control rod bearing) 
installed inside the TGB and further advises the reported event showed 
a speed of degradation faster than expected. The FAA is proposing this 
AD to prevent bearing degradation and subsequent failure, which could 
result in loss of yaw control. See EASA AD 2021-0170 for additional 
background information.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    EASA AD 2021-0170 requires analyzing any particles collected during 
close monitoring or during any required inspections, repetitive 
inspections of the TGB chip detector for particles, performing a double 
bearing washing, and corrective actions. Corrective actions include 
removing an affected TGB and repairing or replacing that TGB, sending 
affected parts and certain information to the manufacturer, replacing a 
TGB chip detector or TGB electrical magnetic plug, and replacing an 
affected O-ring and double bearing. EASA AD 2021-0170 also requires 
performing a double bearing washing or performing a metallurgical 
analysis based on inspection results.
    EASA AD 2021-0170 also requires for any double bearing part number 
(P/N) 704A33-651-245 or 704A33-651-246, installed on any TGB P/N 
365A33-6005-09, before exceeding 610 flight hours (FH) since first 
installation, or within 110 FH after October 28, 2019 (the effective 
date of EASA AD 2019-0267-E, dated October 25, 2019), whichever occurs 
later, and thereafter at intervals not to exceed 500 FH, replacing the 
affected double bearing with a serviceable one. EASA AD 2021-0170 
allows double bearing part number P/N 704A33-651-245 or 704A33-651-246 
to be installed, provided it has never been installed on a helicopter 
and it is inspected as required by EASA AD 2021-0170. Finally, EASA AD 
2021-0170 allows TGB P/N 365A33-6005-09 to be installed, provided it 
has a serviceable double bearing installed that is inspected as 
required by the EASA AD.

of business or by the means identified in the ADDRESSES section.

Other Related Service Information

    The FAA reviewed Airbus Helicopters Emergency Alert Service 
Bulletin (EASB) No. 01.00.24 for non FAA-type certificated military 
Model AS565MA, MB, MBe, SA, SB, and UB helicopters; EASB No. 01.00.71 
for Model AS365N1, N2, and N3 helicopters, and non FAA-type 
certificated military Model AS365F, Fi, K, and K2 helicopters; EASB No. 
01.31 for non FAA-type certificated military Model SA366GA helicopters; 
and EASB No. 04A016 for Model EC155B and B1 helicopters, each Revision 
3 and dated June 14, 2021 (co-published as one document).
    This service information specifies procedures to inspect the TGB 
chip detector for particles, analyze and define the particles by 
performing a metallurgical analysis, perform a washing of the double 
bearing, replace the double bearing, and send certain information and 
affected parts to the manufacturer.

FAA's Determination

    These helicopters have been approved by EASA and are approved for 
operation in the United States. Pursuant to the FAA's bilateral 
agreement with the European Union, EASA has notified the FAA about the 
unsafe condition described in its AD. The FAA is proposing this AD 
after evaluating all known relevant information and determining that 
the unsafe condition described previously is likely to exist or develop 
on other helicopters of the same type design.

Proposed AD Requirements in This NPRM

    This proposed AD would require accomplishing the actions specified 
in EASA AD 2021-0170, described previously, as incorporated by 
reference, except for any differences identified as exceptions in the 
regulatory text of this proposed AD and except as discussed under 
``Differences Between this Proposed AD and EASA AD 2021-0170.''

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 2021-0170 by reference in the FAA 
final rule. This proposed AD would, therefore, require compliance with 
EASA AD 2021-0170 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 2021-0170 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-
0170. Service information referenced in EASA AD 2021-0170 for 
compliance will be available at https://www.regulations.gov by 
searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2022-0295 after the FAA final 
rule is published.

Differences Between This Proposed AD and EASA AD 2021-0170

    Service information referenced in EASA AD 2021-0170 specifies 
sending compliance forms, and certain parts to the manufacturer; this 
proposed AD would not. Service information referenced in EASA AD 2021-
0170 specifies contacting Airbus Helicopters for approved repairs or 
corrective actions if certain discrepancies are found, whereas this 
proposed AD would require accomplishing repairs or corrective actions 
using a method approved by the Manager, General Aviation and Rotorcraft 
Section, International Validation Branch, FAA; or EASA; or Airbus 
Helicopters' EASA Design Organization Approval (DOA). If approved by 
the DOA, the approval must include the DOA-authorized signature.

Interim Action

    The FAA considers this proposed AD would be an interim action. If 
final action is later identified, the FAA might consider further 
rulemaking.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD, if adopted as proposed, would 
affect 53 helicopters of U.S. Registry. Labor rates are estimated at 
$85 per work-hour. Based on these numbers, the FAA estimates the 
following costs to comply with this proposed AD.
    Analyzing any particles collected during close monitoring would 
take about 1 work-hour for an estimated cost of $85 per inspection and 
up to $4,505 for the U.S. fleet.
    Replacing a double bearing would take about 16 work-hours and parts 
cost about $1,620 for an estimated cost of 2,980 per replacement and 
$157,940 for the U.S. fleet.
    Inspecting the TGB chip detector for particles would take about 1 
work-hour for an estimated cost of $85 per inspection and $4,505 for 
the U.S. fleet.
    Performing a double bearing washing would take about 8 work-hours 
for an estimated cost of $680 per helicopter.
    The FAA estimates the following costs to do any necessary on-
condition replacements that would be required based on the results of 
the inspection. The agency has no way of determining the number of 
aircraft that might need these on-condition replacements:
    Analyzing collected particles would take about 1 work-hour for an 
estimated cost of $85 per helicopter.
    Replacing a double bearing would take about 16 work-hours and parts 
would cost about $1,620 for an estimated cost of $2,980 per bearing.
    Replacing a TGB chip detector or TGB electrical magnetic plug would 
take about 1 work-hour and parts would cost about $900 for an estimated 
cost of $985 per part replacement.
    Replacing an O-ring would take about 1 work-hour and parts would 
cost about $100 for an estimated cost of $185 per O-ring.
    Replacing a TGB would take about 8 work-hours and parts would cost 
about $155,302 for an estimated cost of $155,982 per replacement.
    The FAA has received no definitive data for the repair cost of a 
TGB.

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.

[[Page 21055]]

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.
